Abstract
40 high-TAQ Ss and 40 low-TAQ Ss (females) were asked to state a general expectancy for success on a task prior to performance on that task. Following either positive or negative reinforcement Ss were given an opportunity to change their estimates for success. It was found that high-TAQ Ss stated significantly lower expectancies for success prior to performance on the task. Furthermore, following failure, high-TAQ Ss showed a significantly greater decrement in expectancy than did low-TAQ Ss, while following success, there were no differences between high- and low-TAQ Ss.
