Abstract
⺠We provide a prescription for reversing downward performance spirals. ⺠Before feedback, performance is better with an ingroup versus an outgroup experimenter. ⺠Performers descend into downward spirals after ingroup (not outgroup) discouragement. ⺠Performers snap out of downward spirals after ingroup (not outgroup) encouragement. ⺠Performers recover via motivation to prove the outgroup wrong and the ingroup right.
