“…By taking several measurements over two days during both events, the authors found that the POMS reflected a more positive mood profile during the simulated event in contrast to the competition. In addition to the context of the situation, the outcome evaluated against outcome expectancy (Iwanaga et al 2017) may influence one's psychological state. In a swimming competition total mood disturbance, and several other indices of negative affect, increased in the 'failure' group, while few negative changes were seen in the 'success' group (Chennaoui et al 2016).…”

Swimming is a popular sport and leisure activity worldwide, but its psychological effects may vary in different situations. The current in situ study compared swimmers' acute psychological responses in leisure swimming and athletic training. Fifty-four swimmers (27 in each group) were tested in their normal swimming environments. Measures obtained pre-and post-swimming included positiveand negative affect, the self-appraisal of the momentary physicaland mental well-being, and personal satisfaction with the completed swimming session. Leisure swimmers reported positive changes in all dependent measures (p ≤ .001), but this was not the case for the competitive swimmers (p > .05). Further, leisure swimmers were more personally satisfied with the completed swimming session than competitive swimmers (p = .03). Consequently, the psychological benefits of swimming emerged in leisure swimming, but not after athletic training. Therefore, the subjective experience stemming from swimming may be largely determined by the context in which the activity is performed.

“…Vocational outcome expectations . We used a modified version of the Vocational Outcome Expectancy Scale (VOES; Iwanaga et al, ) to measure vocational outcome expectations. The full VOES was constructed using social cognitive career theory, an extension of Bandura's () self‐efficacy theory, for item development (Lent et al, ).…”

“…The scale contains 11 items across two factors: the six‐item Positive Vocational Expectancy subscale and the five‐item Negative Vocational Expectancy subscale. Strong psychometric properties were established as evidenced by results from the exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis (Iwanaga et al, ). Specifically, results from the exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis support the two‐factor scale, with each subscale demonstrating sufficient reliability (α = .79).…”

“…The results of the positive subscale significantly correlated with measures of other constructs as expected, including the motivation for work ( r = .39) and job performance self‐efficacy ( r = .47). Only the six‐item Positive Vocational Expectancy subscale was used for the current study because the results of the confirmatory factor analysis provided stronger psychometric properties for this subscale (Iwanaga et al, ). The full two‐factor scale was initially developed for individuals with disabilities receiving vocational rehabilitation services.…”

Collegiate recovery programs (CRPs) provide support for students in recovery from substance use disorders. Little research exists examining factors relevant to this population, making it challenging to prioritize recovery and educational goals. This study used a national sample (N = 80) of students involved in CRPs to investigate the relationships among self-stigma, quality of life, psychological health, and vocational expectations. A regression model revealed these factors to explain 34% of self-stigmatizing views in this sample.

The purpose of this study was to draw from self-determination and self-efficacy theories to evaluate psychological constructs (autonomous motivation, competency, and outcome expectancy) as mediators of the relationship between working alliance and engagement in transition–vocational rehabilitation (VR) services among African American students with disabilities. A serial multiple mediation analysis was computed to evaluate the mediators of transition-VR service engagement in a sample of 88 African American high school students with disabilities. We found that working alliance was positively associated with active engagement in transition-VR services (total effect), whereas the direct effect of working alliance on engagement was not significant after controlling for the effects of autonomous motivation, competency, and outcome expectancy, supporting significant mediation effects. Findings suggest that a strong working alliance between students and rehabilitation counselors and transition specialists can foster autonomous motivation, competency, and outcome expectancy, resulting in higher levels of engagement in transition-VR services.
