Extending the 3 × 2 achievement goal model to the sport domain: The 3 × 2 Achievement Goal Questionnaire for Sport (2015, background): “…of mastery-approach and mastery-avoidance goals in the sport domain vary in terms of whether they focus on task-based standards (e.g., Wang, Biddle, & Elliot, 2007), self-based standards (e.g., Conroy et al., 2003), or a combination of task-based and self-based standards (e.g., Riou et al., 2012).”
Antecedents and consequences of approach and avoidance achievement goals: A test of gender invariance (2008, methodology): “Initial research has found the subscales to exhibit acceptable internal consistency and has provided evidence supporting the factorial and external validity of the measure (Conroy et al., 2003).”
