The current competition literatures contain mixed and inconclusive findings, whereby competition has null or mixed effects on performance and interpersonal outcomes - some literatures such as tournament theory suggest competition increases performance whereas other work by social psychologists suggests competition harms performance. This work extends existing competition research by offering a perspective that helps reconcile and integrate prior disparate work - whereas prior work examines when competition increases motivation, the current work focuses on how that motivation is appraised. In particular, the current work draws on work from challenge and threat literature to try to make two points. In Part 1, I argue that current mixed findings can be understood by considering when competition increases challenge or threat - for some people or situations, competition increases challenge which increases performance and relational outcomes; in other people or situations, competition increases threat which decreases performance and relational outcomes. Using this lens, Part 1 provides an integrative review of the literature and demonstrates how several disparate and opposing moderators may be integrated from this perspective. In Part 2, I extend this challenge and threat perspective to answer newer questions in the literature. In particular, I use challenge and threat to explain gender differences in decisions to re-compete following competitive losses. This helps provide a new perspective on prior work - which tends to take a static perspective to competition, examining immediate outcomes of primarily one-shot interactions - by examining how past competitive interactions can affect future ones. In particular, I demonstrate that following competitive losses, women (versus men) are less likely to choose to re-compete. In total, this work puts forth a challenge and threat perspective that helps us not only understand old questions, but helps us answer new ones.
