**RIPPLE Comment** According to Global News (established source), Connor McDavid's enthusiasm for winning gold at the Olympics has been reported (Global News, 2023). McDavid's Olympic preparation highlights the importance of reality-based training in achieving exceptional performance. The direct cause → effect relationship is that McDavid's focus on winning gold demonstrates the value of immersive and high-pressure training environments. This emphasis on realistic simulations can enhance athletes' ability to perform under pressure, a key aspect of reality-based training (RBT). Intermediate steps include the transfer of skills from Olympic preparation to everyday performance, potentially influencing teaching methods in educational settings. The timing of this effect is likely short-term, as McDavid's Olympic experience will shape his approach to training and competition. This could lead to a broader adoption of RBT techniques in various fields, including education, sports, and the military. **Domains Affected:** * Education (Teaching and Professional Development) * Sports * Military Training **Evidence Type:** Event report **Uncertainty:** Depending on McDavid's performance at the Olympics, his training methods may be more widely adopted or scrutinized. If his experience is seen as a success, it could lead to increased investment in RBT programs. ---
