Momentum has intrigued sport participants and researchers for years due to its ephemeral nature, association with success, and complexity as a subject of investigation. It is one of the most desirable yet least understood performance experiences in social sport psychology. This study explored momentum, and the individual construct of psychological momentum (PM), using a mixed methods, psychophysiological, case study design. The experiential phenomenon of momentum, defined as an emotionally infused appraisal of current performance, was explored with qualitative procedures using basketball players and coaches as informants. This exploration, conducted and analyzed within a theoretical framework known in the sport psychology literature as the multidimensional model of momentum, provided information used to structure the protocol for a quantitative field study of the PM of two basketball coaches. Measures of their cognition, emotion, physiology, and behavior were collected throughout instances of perceived momentum occurring in basketball games that they coached. Results were reported on a case study basis, looking at how each of the dependent variables changed during instances of momentum. In the qualitative phase of this study it was found that momentum is hard to create but a valuable phenomenon for athletes and coaches alike. Additionally, momentum seemed to elicit significant emotional, behavioral, and cognitive effects constituted in patterns of response to events in competition. These effects, manifested differently for players and coaches, occurred as performance appraisals that likely had considerable performance consequences for those experiencing it. These consequences were detected as changes in the psychobehaviors of both study participants including changes in heart rate, self-reports of shifts in emotional valence, and observable sideline behaviors. Apart from emotion, none of the psychobehavioral changes were found to be significant. This was due in large part to a lack of sufficient examples or cases that would support the study hypothesis---that a perception of momentum results in reliable individual psychobehavioral changes. Anecdotally, however, the coaches did seem to react to momentum in ways that can influence the "life-span" of momentum by virtue of their strategic play calling and their modeling of appropriate behavior to their athletes. These findings, conducted within the rubric of a comprehensive and unique mixed-method design hold considerable promise for further studies of this type, for the momentum model that was tested, and for knowledge gained from this study that may have applied implications for coaches, athletes, and sport psychology service delivery practitioners working with them.
