Research Progress on the Relationship Between Athletes Received Social Support and Exercise Performance
Social support is considered an important resource for athletes,and athletes receiving social support have a positive impact on athletic performance.However,the research evidence in this field had not been integrated and empirical research is limited on the relationship between the two.In this study,the paper begined with a review of the evidence on the different ways and sources of social support received by athletes and the positive effects on different groups of athletes,providing a more complete and comprehensive evidence.And then,the influence mechanistic relationship between athletes'receiving social support and exercise performance were elucidated.It was concluded that social support not only has the role of mediating variable,but other influencing factors may also impact athletes'sporting performance through indirect factors.Finally,based on the current research process,three main directions of future research were provided:(1)to enrich case studies the impact of social support received by athletes from different sports on exercise performance;(2)to identify the role of the effects of differences in the way and sources of social support received by athletes on exercise performance;(3)to explore the integrated model of athletes'acceptance of social support and the influence of internal and external factors on exercise performance.
