Abstract

In this work are presented the results obtained with the application of the BFQ questionnaire to a sample of 346 judokas in a competitive level in the Spanish national context during the years 2001 and 2002. Personologic characteristics in both dimensional and subdimensional levels are described, determining possible differences in the individuals of the sample according to gender and age sportive category. Likewise, implications of these differences for the study of personality in the context of the sports competition are discussed. Results revealed important differences according to gender and to category, although differences between ages appear almost exclusively for males. Regarding with the gender, statistically significant differences were found for Friendliness and Emotional Stability, as well as for the next subdimensions: Dominance, Cooperativeness, Emotion Control and Impulse Control. male group received more points in all these dimensions and subdimensions except for Friendliness and Cooperativeness, in this category the female group got more points. Regarding to the sports category of age, there were differences for males in all of the five dimensions (excepting for Energy) and in almost all of the subdimensions (excepting for Dynamism, Politeness, Perseverance, Emotion Control and Openness to culture). For females, however, no differences were found nor in the dimensional neither in the subdimensional level.
