The hypothesis states that performance improves with increasing levels of arousal up to an optimal point,beyond this optimal point of arousal can be detrimental to performance, as a result of this athletes may under perform due to being over or under aroused.

Who created inverted U hypothesis?

The inverted U hypothesis was proposed by psychologists Robert Yerkes and John Dodson in 1908. They suggested that performance increases with arousal up to a certain point, beyond which performance declines. This relationship between arousal and performance is often depicted as an inverted U-shaped curve.


Is the drive theory and you theory the same?

If by which you mean the Inverted-U Theory then no they are not. The drive theory suggests the relationship between arousal and performance to be linear, suggesting that as arousal increases as does performance. This has been rejected by most phychologists and adopted the Inverted-U Hypothesis. The Inverted-U hypothesis suggests that though there is a link between arousal and performance it is not linear, more likely an upwards parabola, or an upside-down or 'inverted' U. This suggests that as arousal increases so does performance but only to an optimal point, after which it begins to deteriorate.

What is the inverted U function?

The inverted U function, also known as an upside-down U function or concave function, is a mathematical function that first increases, reaches a maximum point, and then starts decreasing. It is commonly used to describe phenomena where an optimal level exists, beyond which the effect diminishes.

Why U-tube is inverted in inverted differential manometer?

The U-tube in an inverted differential manometer is inverted because it allows the device to measure pressure differences accurately. When one side of the U-tube is connected to a system with higher pressure than the other side, the liquid in the U-tube moves to create a visible difference that can be measured. If the U-tube were not inverted, the liquid would not move, and accurate pressure readings could not be obtained.
