Document Summary
Lecture 29: managing and manipulaing cogniion: challenge vs. Important performance situaions: student wriing a test, giving a lecture, compeiion in a race. Situaions (e. g. compeiion, performance) are what they are: objecive opportuniies to engage in behaviors that have been trained. Become something diferent depending on how we think about them: geing bumped in a race, tackled hard in a game, unknown opponent. Early theorizing and research on stress: seyle (general adaptaion syndrome, cannon (ight/light) Cogniive representaion of events as challenge or threat: diferent paterns of endocrine and circulatory responses. Based on subjecive evaluaions of task demands and personal resources. Resources = skills, knowledge, abiliies, disposiions, external support. Moivated performance situaion task engagement evaluaion of resources and demands. High resources (low demands) challenge sam low trp (total peripheral resistance), high. Low resources (high demands) threat sam + hpa high tpr, low co (shrink vessels) Both have increased hr and vc (ventricular contracibility) Psychological processes: evaluated resources > evaluated demands.
