Summary: This paper examines the bi-directional relationship between negative and malevolent creativity and proposes a model to describe their relationships. The study finds that although the two types of thinking share some similarities, they differ in terms of value goals, ways of thinking, and the scale of the subject. Personal intention and value orientation are crucial factors in establishing a linkage between negative and malevolent creative thinking.

Summary: This meta-analysis found that reflective thinking style has a positive relationship with task performance, particularly in environments with high task complexity, high demand for innovation, and high work time pressure. In contrast, intuitive thinking style, although positively related to task performance, has a smaller impact, with a more pronounced relationship in environments with high task complexity. Additionally, reflective thinking style can explain unique variance in task performance.

Summary: This scoping review summarizes the importance of the multidimensional model of empowering and disempowering coach climates in the context of Sport Psychology intervention. A total of 44 articles were included in the study, with 16 being cross-sectional studies, four being psychometrics validation studies, one being a transversal cohort study, and one being a qualitative study. The EDMCQ-C questionnaire is the most commonly used and has the necessary psychometric qualities for assessing empowering and disempowering motivational climates. The study describes results related to the measurement, antecedents, and effects of empowering and disempowering coach climates. Future research should focus on empirical evidence to further develop the existing framework, considering antecedents, development, direct and indirect effects, moderating effects, aggregated effects, and qualitative studies.

Summary: This study examined the relationship between sport coaches' basic psychological needs and their motivation, subjective vitality, and coaching behaviors. The results revealed that the satisfaction of coaches' basic psychological needs was associated with higher levels of intrinsic motivation and vitality, which in turn were related to autonomy-supporting coaching behaviors. Furthermore, frustration of coaches' basic psychological needs was associated with higher levels of external motivation and a need-thwarting coaching style.
