Abstract: Lane and Terry (2000) defined mood as 'a set of feelings, ephemeral in nature, varying in intensity and duration, and usually involving more than one emotion' (p.16). They \nproposed a conceptual framework for predicting performance from mood states assessed by the Profile of Mood States (McNair, Lorr, & Droppleman, 1971) or its derivatives. The \nconceptual model indicated that depressed mood influences the intensity of other mood states, and determines the functional impact of anger and tension on performance. The aim of the present paper is to summarise studies that have tested Lane and Terry's conceptual model. \nSeventeen published studies were located that have tested assumptions forwarded by \nLane and Terry (2000). All studies investigated differences in anger, confusion, fatigue, tension and vigour between depressed mood and no-depression groups. Of these, nine studies investigated mood-performance relationships, three studies investigated relationships between mood and other psychological states, and another three studies investigated the influence of depressed mood on changes in other mood states over time. Of the remaining two studies, one compared the covariance of tension and depression with other mood dimensions and the final study investigated post-competition mood and performance satisfaction. \n \n
