Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Since first proposed by Csikszentmihalyi in 1975, flow theory has been studied in work environments, education, leisure studies, and sports; however, investigations corresponding to flow in sports typically have been restricted to individual performances, with little research into team sports and even less in women’s team sports. This study investigated eight case studies of female university basketball players at Canadian universities. While confirming previous research into flow experiences, the study also identified some key factors, such as the relatively rare occurrence of flow experiences, the fragility of flow experiences, and the differential impact on individual players of the nine characteristics of flow. In addition, the study identified factors for coaches who wish to optimize flow experiences for their teams. Article visualizations:

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
