Citations in the corpus

• Motivational clusters and performance in a real-life setting (2009, result): “Indeed, although the present results provided support for the construct validity of this scale, some authors (e.g., Mallett et al. 2007a, b) have suggested that the SMS may not assess some of the SDT regulatory categories in a theory-consistent way.”
• Validation of the revised sport motivation scale (SMS-II) (2013, unknown): “…SMS has had a signi fi cant impact on the measurement, prediction, and understanding of sport motivation, although in recent years, researchers have questioned some of the item contents and psychometric properties of the scale (Lonsdale et al., 2008; Mallett et al., 2007; Martens & Webber, 2002).”
• Using Bifactor Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling to Test for a Continuum Structure of Motivation (2018, result): “Support for the continuum hypothesis of motivation has been at best inconsistent in previous research (Chemolli & Gagné, 2014; Gagné et al.; Guay et al., 2015; Litalien et al., 2015; Mallett et al., 2007).”
• Self-determination Theory and the psychology of exercise (2008, background): “, 2007 ; Pelletier & Sarrazin, 2007 ; Pelletier et al.”
• What motivates the motivators? An examination of sports coaches (2012, background): “From a practical viewpoint, the overall picture that emerged among the coaches supports the view that motivation can be characterized as a profile whereby multiple motivations can be present in varying amounts dependent on the situation (Mallett et al. 2007).”
• Assessing Model Fit: Caveats and Recommendations for Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Exploratory Structural Equation Modeling (2015, methodology): “In reality, the SMS-6 has demonstrated consistently good factorial validity.”
• A motivational model of performance in the sport domain (2009, unknown): “Mallett, Kawabata, Newcombe, Otero-Rorero, & Jackson, 2007 ; Martens & Webber, 2002 ; Reimer, Fink, & Fitzgerald, 2002 ).”
