Abstract

Motivation can be considered as one of the subjects most studied in the sportive context, mainly because of its relationship with the intention of further practice and with the athlete´s satisfaction. In order to better understand this phenomenon, this study assessed the correlation between the self-determined motivation and various types of psychological constructs in women´s basketball athletes in the school.

The following tools were used: 1) Sociodemographic questionnaire; 2) Motivation in Sports questionnaire (SMS); 3) Parental Behavior in Sports questionnaire (QCPD); 4) Scale of Perceived Autonomy in Sports; 5) Scale of Perceived Skill in Sports; 6) Scale of Need of Relationship; 7) Scale of self-description (self-esteem); 8) Scale of Satisfaction with Life; 9) Brief Resilience Scale (BRS). Data treatment used the SPSS statistical package, version 21.0 for Windows, with a significance level of p<0,05. Descriptive statistics, average (M) and standard deviation (DP) were also used.

The analysis of the symmetry of the distribution of frequencies (normality) was done using the Shapiro-Wilk test. To know the linear association (relationship) between different variables, the Pearson´s correlation coefficient was calculated for symmetric data and Spearman´s correlation coefficient for non-symmetrical data. The results showed significant correlations between motivation and parental behavior, motivation, and need for autonomy and skill, and motivation and self-esteem.
