McCaughan, Lindsay R.; McKinlay, Sue – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 1981
Female high school students participated in a motor task to assess the effects of success/failure feedback and extrinsic rewards on intrinsic motivation. It was found that a significant change in intrinsic motivation was due to the effects of success/failure feedback, but not to the effect of a tangible reward. (Authors/FG)

Powers, Scott K.; And Others – Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport, 1983
In an attempt to identify physiological factors that account for success in distance running, researchers evaluated relationships among ventilatory threshold, running economy, and distance running performance. Subjects were trained male runners with similar maximal aerobic power. (Authors/PP)
