BIO
Guillaume Martinent is associate professor at the Lyon 1 University Claude Bernard (France), and member of the Laboratory of Vulnerabilities and Innovation in Sport (L-VIS). His main topics of research focus on optimizing motivational, emotionnal and attentional processes of individuals involved in performance settings. A better understanding of adaptation processes in stressful situations allowed him to propose and test the effect of mental intervention programs for athletes (e.g., emotional intelligence, mindfulness, respiratory techniques) and their coaches (e.g., motivational climate favouring the satisfaction of basic psychological needs). He has also developed a strong interest in the use of computational methods for the quantitative analysis of psychological responses to sport training or competition (e.g., latent profile transition analysis, multilevel modeling, growth modeling). He published more than 150 ISI indexed publications with impact factor and he presented more than 180 communications at national and international conferences.

LECTURE TITLE
Does digitalization and self-quantification impact trajectories of motivation processes for practicing physical activity? A 10-week longitudinal study
In a globalized, increasingly connected and digitalized world, quantification practices have irrigated the various spheres of our contemporary societies including sport settings. Indeed, many connected objects (wearables) or mobile applications are now used to collect, store, visualize, process and share activity data. In particular, auto-quantification (or self-tracking) is considered as a reflexive mode of practice that is adopted by people as a way of learning more about themselves by noticing and recording aspects of their lives, and then using the information that is gathered to reflect on and make sense of this information. This approach which is the focus of the present research refers to individual quantification, carried out directly (non-mediated) and autonomously, by oneself, on oneself and for oneself. Does digitalization and self-quantification degrade the quality of the lived experience? How do psychological dynamics of individuals using self-quantification evolve? The aim of the present study is to examine the dynamics of motivational constructs (self-determined motivation, satisfaction of basic psychological need, achievement goals) among individuals practicing physical activity using self-quantification and digitalization over a 10-week period. Results will be presented during the lecture
