Item CORRELATION BETWEEN JUNIORS’ MENTAL HEALTH PARAMETERS AND SPORTS MOTIVATION(2024) Kurova, A.; Popovych, I. S.; Zablotskyi, A.; Bazyka, Y.; Poleshchuk, L.; Hoi, N.; Los, O.; Попович, І. С.o explore the relationship between mental health parameters and sports motivation among junior athletes. Methods: The research sample included junior athletes aged 15–19 who trained regularly and pursued sports as a means of professional self-realization. An equal number of male (n = 32; 50.00%) and female athletes (n = 32; 50.00%) were selected. The sample maintained a balance between individual and team sports, with n = 32 (50.00%) participants from individual sports and n = 32 (50.00%) from team sports. Descriptive statistics for the sample were as follows: M = 18.12; SD = ±2.97; Me = 18.00. The parameters of mental health, the level of juniors’ positive mental health and health status, and groups of intrinsic and extrinsic motives were measured with valid and reliable psycho-diagnostic tools. Standard coefficients were used to establish statistical significance. Results. Two athletes’ profiles were created: a three-dimensional profile of mental health and a profile of sports motivation. Eighteen significant correlations between the parameters of groups of intrinsic and extrinsic motives and the mental health of athletes were established (p ≤ .050; p ≤ .010; p ≤ .001), three of them being inverse. The motive of skill development has the strongest correlations with an internal locus of control over health, positive mental health, and health status. The comparative matrix allowed for identifying the superiority of Group 1 (a high level of the parameters of mental health) in four pairs of dimensions: positive mental health and positive emotions; an internal locus of control and skill development; positive mental health and skill development; health status and skill development. No significant difference was found in the level of health status (Group 1 > 38.00 ≤ 1 Group 2) in the parameter “demotivation”. Discussion and conclusions. It was substantiated that systematic work on oneself, which manifests in self-improvement of technical and practical skills, allows purposeful and hard-working junior athletes to achieve remarkable sports results. The motives of learning new things and positive emotions with four direct correlations each are the most dependent ones. There is a caveat that junior athletes’ health status as a complex state of physical, emotional, and mental well-being may weaken sports motivation. It was recommended that the results obtained should be considered by administrators, coaches, psychologists, and managers of sports institutions who work with junior athletesItem CONSTRUCTION AND COMPARISON OF MENTAL RESOURCE COMPLEXES OF MALE AND FEMALE SPORTS TEAMS(2022) Popovych, I. S.; Radul, I.; Radul, V.; Geiko, Ie.; Hoi, N.; Sribna, O.; Tymosh, Yu.; Попович, І. С.The purpose of the study is to justify the methodology for developing complexes of mental resources (CMR) for sports representatives by comparing CMR male and female sports teams. The male sample included football (n=108) and volleyball (n=58) teams, meanwhile, the female sample included handball (n=38) and volleyball (n=55) teams. Research Methods: valid test methods with standard survey forms; factor analysis; criterion and reliability coefficients of the empirical data array. Results. The methodology for developing complexes of mental resources in athletes is substantiated, and an algorithm for operations is proposed. ANOVA factor analysis was used to discover the most loaded parameters of all CMR. The CMR of male and female sports samples is represented graphically. F1 “Value-Meaningful” (DG1=24.01%; DG2=10.67%) and F2 “Pragmatically-Moderate” (DG2=24.25%; DG1=13.12%) are the most loaded CMR factors. Significant differences in the samples were found between the “Value-Meaningful” (t=3.2; p≤.01); “Pragmatically- Moderate” (t=-2.9; p≤.01) and “Procedural” (t=2.1; p≤.05) factors. The factors that comprise the valuemeaningful core are proven as the basis of the CMR of the male sample. It should be mentioned that the purpose of sports activities for male athletes is physical energy and “inner strength”, which allow them to overcome challenges, recover, and not break down. It was established that the CMR of the female sample is founded on pragmatism and moderation. The predominance of the pragmatic component in female sample representatives is assumed because the multifaceted nature of women consists in a female’s ability to create a family, give birth to children, and be in competitive sports shape in a relatively short period of time, which requires more time and psycho-emotional resources than men. Conclusions. The development of mental resource complexes enables the identification of major differences, the identification of athlete growth indicators, and serves as the basis for the development of work programs aimed at strengthening mental resources.
