The Journal of psychology 2013 May-JunThe present investigation examined the influence of three antecedents (fear of failure, personal standards, and concern over mistakes) on achievement goals and also the influence of achievement goals on two affective outcomes (enjoyment and hope). Participants were 204 tennis players from Mexico. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the results. We found support for the role of fear of failure, personal standards, and concern over mistakes as antecedents of some achievement goals. Whereas mastery-approach had a significant influence on enjoyment and hope, performance-approach goals had a significant influence on hope only. The implications of the results are discussed.
