This study is based on Regulatory Focus Theory and investigates the links between the subjects' motivational orientations for promotion or prevention and their performance in handball penalty throws. In a real-world setting with high stakes, we analyzed 327 penalties taken from 68 closed games. The results of the 7-meter throws constitute the dependent variable (Goal vs Miss). The independent variables are the situational focus ([critical moment (ie, final minute) = pressure] vs [non-critical moment = no pressure]), the reward structure (ie, [thrower's team is behind = losses reward structure] vs [thrower's team is ahead or teams are tied = gains reward structure), and the game location (home vs away). Using logistic regression analysis, the results show that when there is a fit between the situational focus and the reward structure, the thrower's performance is higher than when there is a mismatch (OR = 2.21; P = .004). In the same way, the thrower's performance is higher when there is high fit between the situational focus and the reward structure (OR = 1.78), than when there is a high mismatch (OR = 0.54). These results globally support the Regulatory Fit Theory in an ecological context.
本研究基于调节定向理论，考察了被试促进定向和预防定向与手球罚球表现之间的关系。在高风险的真实情境下，我们分析了 68 场封闭比赛中的 327 次罚球。7 米罚球的结果构成因变量（进球 vs 未进）。自变量为情境焦点（[关键时刻（即最后一分钟）=压力]与[非关键时刻=无压力]）、奖励结构（[罚球者所在队落后=输球奖励结构]与[罚球者所在队领先或两队打平=赢球奖励结构]）和比赛地点（主场 vs 客场）。使用逻辑回归分析，结果表明，当情境焦点与奖励结构相匹配时，罚球者的表现优于不匹配时（OR=2.21；P=.004）。同样，当情境焦点和奖励结构高度匹配时（OR=1.78），罚球者的表现优于高度不匹配时（OR=0.54）。这些结果总体上支持了生态情境下的调节适配理论。
