Importance of the Motivational Climate in Goal, Enjoyment, and the Causes of Success in Handball Players

Frontiers in Psychology (2017)

Antonio Granero‐Gallegos Manuel Gómez-López Nuria Rodríguez-Suárez J. Arturo Abraldes Marianna Alesi

This study examines the effects of the motivational climate created by the coach and perceived by young athletes on their goal orientations and beliefs about success and satisfaction according to the achievement goal theory. The study participants were 159 young handball players. Athletes administered a battery composed of tests to measure the above-mentioned motivational constructs. Results showed that a perceived mastery-oriented motivational climate was positively related to a task-centered goal orientation, enjoyment, and a belief that success may be achieved through effort. In contrast, a perceived performance-orientated training climate was linked to an ego-centered goal orientation, boredom or lack of enthusiasm, and a belief that the routes of success in this sport are the abilities and the use of deception techniques. On the whole, this study underlines the educational role of the coach in adolescents and young athletes. Specifically, the coach's socializing role influences both handball player's commitment and positive motivational profile as well as sport performance.

espanolLa finalidad del estudio fue analizar la motivacion en jugadores de balonmano partiendo de los constructos teoricos de las metas de logro y de la autodetermina - cion. La muestra estuvo compuesta por 316 jugadores adolescentes, con edades comprendidas entre los 15 y 18 anos. Los instrumentos que se utilizaron para la recogida de la informacion fueron las versiones en castellano del Cuestionario de Percepcion de exito (PoSq) y de la Escala de Motivacion Deportiva (SMS). Los datos se analizaron estadisticamente mediante un analisis descriptivo, de co- rrelacion y de regresion. Los principales resultados muestran una clara relacion positiva entre la orientacion al ego y la motivacion extrinseca y la amotivacion. Asimismo, se demuestra que la motivacion extrinseca de regulacion externa pre- dice positivamente una orientacion al ego y la disminucion de la orientacion a la tarea en los jugadores de balonmano EnglishThe purpose of this study was to analyze the motivation in handball players based on the theoretical constructs of achievement goals and self-determination.

Analysis of self-determined motivation in basketball players through goal orientations.

PubMed (2013)

The purpose of this study was twofold. Firstly to examine the relations between the different constructs that defines Nicholls' Achievement Goal Theory and Deci and Ryan's self-determination theory. Secondly to analyse the differences that exist between them with respect to the socio-demographic variables gender and age. A sample of 292 federated basketball players from the Region of Murcia (Spain) with ages between 14 and 18 years old was used. In addition, Castilian versions of The Perception of Success Questionnaire (POSQ) and the Sports Motivational Scale (SMS) were administered. Three statistical analyses were employed, a descriptive analysis, a correlation analysis and a regression analysis. The results showed a positive relation between ego orientation, extrinsic motivation and amotivation. The motivational relations between both theories and the differences with respect to gender and age are discussed. We have found out that mainly gender and also age differences are strong predictors of ego orientation, extrinsic motivation of external regulation and amotivation. We can also confirm that extrinsic motivation of external regulation positively predicts ego orientation and a decrease of task orientation. The results ratify the use of the Spanish version of the SMS to measure different types of motivation within the sports context.
