Glory story : the difference in emotional memories of male and female swimmers, 2005.

Walsh examines the stories of thrill and excitement from twelve members of the Brigham Young University Men's and Women's Swimming and Diving Teams. Walsh discusses the drive for male competitors to win and/or triumph in some way against a particular opponent or situation. Female competitors, Walsh then contends, tend to be more concerned with emotional victories by beating a personal best time or feeling they have achieved an overall personal best. It is through differences in diction, detail and memory choice between males and females that Walsh argues makes the biggest impact in the way these "glory stories" are portrayed.
