Sebastian Schröder is a researcher and academic affiliated with Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg whose work examines performance-related processes in sport, including self-competencies, achievement motivation, affiliation motives and the persistence of young athletes in elite sport. His research connects empirical performance analysis with questions of athlete development and the management of performance-related demands. [1]

Abstract

Sebastian Schröder’s research addresses the relationship between athlete characteristics, performance-related competencies and continued participation in elite sport. His published work examines sport-specific achievement and affiliation motives among young athletes, differences in self-competencies between performance groups, and the development of approaches intended to support elite sports careers. Research associated with his work uses empirical analysis to examine motivation, stress-related characteristics, planning and self-regulation in performance environments. [1]

  • Self-regulation
  • Sports psychology

Introduction

Performance management research in sport increasingly considers not only measurable outcomes but also the psychological and behavioural factors that shape sustained performance. In elite sport, athletes operate within structured systems in which training, education, competition and personal development may interact over extended periods. The study of these relationships is particularly relevant to young athletes, for whom motivation and self-regulatory resources can influence both persistence and performance trajectories. [1]

Research Profile

Sebastian Schröder is affiliated with Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg and has published research in the area of sport and performance. His profile is characterised by an interdisciplinary interest in performance-related behaviour, sport psychology and the development of young athletes. University and publication records identify his academic work with sport science and performance-oriented research in Magdeburg. [2]

Research Contributions

Schröder’s research contributions encompass several interconnected areas of performance management and athlete development. His work on motivation and persistence examines achievement and affiliation motives among young elite athletes, with particular attention to differences between athletes who continue in elite sport and those who later leave the pathway; the study analysed 146 young elite athletes and considered variations across age, gender and sport type. [1]

Publications

Selected publications and research outputs associated with Sebastian Schröder reflect his research focus on athlete motivation, self-competencies and performance-oriented development. Schröder and Knisel (2024) examined the impact of sport-specific achievement and affiliation motives on young athletes’ dropout and persistence in elite sports, published in the Scientific Journal of Sport and Performance. [1]

Research Impact

The relevance of Schröder’s research lies in its focus on performance-related factors that can be examined before performance outcomes are considered in isolation. By analysing motivational structures, self-competencies and performance-group differences, the research contributes to discussions about how athlete development and performance environments can be understood through empirical evidence. [1]

Award Suitability

The Innovative Research Award recognises research activity demonstrating a clear research focus, evidence-based investigation and relevance to the development of knowledge. Based on the documented publication record and research outputs, Sebastian Schröder’s work demonstrates a coherent interest in performance-related research, athlete development and the empirical analysis of motivation and self-competencies. [1]

Conclusion

Sebastian Schröder’s research profile is centred on the study of performance-related processes in elite sport, with particular attention to motivation, self-competencies and athlete development. His publications address the persistence of young athletes, differences in self-related competencies between performance groups and the development of structured approaches for elite sports careers.

Decision-making and problem-solving are critical cognitive processes essential for navigating daily life and achieving long-term goals. Decision-making involves evaluating various options and selecting the most appropriate course of action based on criteria such as values, preferences, and available information. This process typically includes identifying the decision to be made, gathering relevant data, considering possible alternatives, weighing the pros and cons of each option, and ultimately making a choice. Effective decision-making requires clear thinking, foresight, and often, the ability to anticipate the potential outcomes of different decisions. It can be influenced by both rational analysis and emotional factors, requiring a balance between logical reasoning and intuition.
