| dc.description.abstract | A literatura disponível revelou uma tendência para a análise da motivação e ansiedade em atletas de alto rendimento. No entanto, existe uma lacuna no corpo de conhecimento da motivação e traços de ansiedade em atletas femininas de Rugby. Este artigo pretende examinar as relações e as diferenças individuais das diferentes orientações motivacionais, analisando a orientação para a Tarefa e a orientação para o Ego, tal como as dimensões somática e cognitiva do traço de ansiedade cognitiva em cenários de ansiedade competitiva. Foram aplicados os instrumentos de medida: questionário “Orientação Motivacional do desporto” e o questionário de “Reacções à Competição”, que foram correlacionados entre si com as variáveis independentes: idade, posição, clube, anos de experiência, internacionalizações, número de sessões de treino e a carga horária do Micro-ciclo semanal. A relação entre variáveis foi apreciada pelo coeficiente de correlação de Spearman’s rho, sendo considerados valores p <.01 e p <.05. Participaram 12 atletas femininas da Selecção Nacional Portuguesa de Rugby de 7’s. Os resultados revelaram que a orientação para a Tarefa sobrepõem-se à orientação para o Ego, o que reflete uma interpretação da preocupação (ansiedade cognitiva) como um facilitador, invés de debilitador. | pt_PT |
| dc.description.abstract | Researchers have previously examined motivational goal setting and anxiety among high-level athletes because they are considered important variables in sport performance. Since Rugby Sevens was included in the 2016 Olympics, research interest in rugby Sevens increased significantly. However, the focus has been mainly on the physical demands of the competition (e.g. Hogarth, et al., 2016). Rugby Sevens as a sport for women in Portugal is novel, womens rugby competition only started to win more consistency at the beginning of the 20th century. The sample was composed of 12 female athletes that represent the Portuguese Women’s Sevens (PWS) squad. The purpose of the current exploratory study was to measure athletes’ goal orientations using Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire – TEOSQp (Chi & Duda, 1995) and the anxiety multidimentional subscales cognitive and somatic trait anxiety in sport using Sport Anxiety Scale SAS-2 (Smith, Smoll & Schutz, 1990). The relationships between goal orientation and anxiety variables was analysed by nonparametric correlations using the Spearman’s rho coefficient and numerical variance for normality was analysed using Shapiro-Wilk Test. The results revealed that the athletes were high in task goal orientation (X = 4.40) and low (for H-P) in ego goal orientation (X = 2.88); there was a significant positive correlation between ego goal orientation and quantity of weekly sessions and a positive correlation between worry (anxiety dimension) and the duration of weekly sessions. As expected players’ task goal orientation was correlated with low competitive anxiety. These findings are discussed in light of the literature and suggestions are made to contribute guidance from the Head Coach and Technical Director in how these psychological dimensions can influence the development and performance of female Rugby Sevens players. | pt_PT |
