Relational Motivation

Relationships influence our lives; how we use those influences as motivation towards a goal is referred to as relational motivation. Research on relational motivation shows that motivations are increased when there are clear goals & a strong positive relationship. Relationships influence goal attainment by providing a support system. Research has shown that relationships motivate. Autonomy plays a big role in motivation. If autonomy is taken away, so is motivation. Understanding how relationships motivate adolescents could lead to better futures.

The Winning Edge

For our project, we will determine whether the turnover to shot ratio can determine the outcome of a game. We will obtain our data from the GoBeacons website. We will be using both the men’s and the women’s game stats from all the years available for our data. For each individual game we will determine the number of shots and divide it by the number of turnovers. After obtaining this number, we will constructs a histogram that will show the shape of the distribution. After determining the mean, standard deviation, and median we will conduct a hypothesis test to determine if a certain shot to turnover ratio determines a win.
