Lesson 5: Attribution - How to Interpret Success & Failure to Improve Your Performance | Perf. Psych

What happens after success or failure may depend partly on how you explain why it happened? In this video, Dr. Joshua Oparachukwu examines Attribution Theory through the lens of performance psychology, including how people explain their successes and failures, the different causes they attribute outcomes to, and how those explanations can influence confidence, motivation, expectations, persistence, and future performance. The discussion is relevant to athletes, students, professionals, performers, coaches, leaders, and anyone interested in understanding how the explanations we give to performance outcomes can shape what happens next. Dr. Joshua Oparachukwu is a Performance Psychologist and Applied Performance Scientist working across sport, education, professional performance, leadership, teams, and other high-pressure human performance environments.
