Motivation, parental style and psychological well-being of female basketball school player
ABSTRACT Motivation can be considered as one of the most researched themes in the sporting context, especially because of its relatedness with different psychological attributes and the intention of prospective practice. In this sense, this study verified the correlation between motivation, parental style and psychological well-being in 9 school basketball athletes, with a mean age of 13.6 ± 0.8 years, from a private school in the city of São José do Rio Pardo, Brazil. The following instruments were used: 1) Sociodemographic questionnaire; 2) Sport Motivation Scale; 3) Parental Behavior in Sports Questionnaire; 4) Scale of Perceived Autonomy in Sports; 5) Scale of Perceived Skill in Sports; 6) Scale of Need of Relatedness; 7) Scale of self-description (self-esteem); 8) Scale of Satisfaction with Life. The data treatment was done through the SPSS statistical package, adopting the level of significance of p<0.05. It was possible to verify significant correlations between “Sports support from father” x “Sports support from mother” (r = 0.817); “Intrinsic motivation to accomplish” x “Extrinsic motivation for challenging experiences” (r = 0.751); “Dissatisfaction from father with sports performance” x “Intrinsic motivation to accomplish” (r = -0.814); “Introjected regulation” x “Sports support from mother” (r = -0.851); “Introjected regulation” x “Sports support from father (r = -0.783)”. The results demonstrate the relatedness between motivation, parental style and psychological well-being, which refers to the need for care regarding to the motivational strategies adopted by parents and coaches of children and adolescents in this important phase of physical, social and sports development.
