Item SELF-ATTITUDES IN THE STRUCTURE OF MOTIVATIONAL ORIENTATION OF JUNIOR ATHLETES(2024) Popovych, I. S.; Savchuk, O.; Matusiak, H.; Kruglov, K.; Kryzhanovskyi, O.; Danko, D.; Huzar, V.; Попович, І. С.The purpose of this study is to perform theoretical and empirical research on the role of self-attitude in shaping and developing the motivational orientation of junior athletes. Methods: The research sample consisted of junior male and female athletes aged 15–19 years (n = 82) (M = 17.22; SD = ±1.68; Me = 17). All participants trained at the sports schools “LSSCY Enerhetyk” in Lviv, Ukraine and “SSSYOR №1” in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine. They represented individual sports such as freestyle wrestling, judo, Greco–Roman wrestling, track and field, and artistic gymnastics, as well as team sports including football and volleyball. To assess self-attitude, the “Methods of Studying Self-Attitude” (Panteleev, 1993) were used. The dimensions of motivational orientation were evaluated using the “Athlete’s Motivational Orientation” questionnaire (Smoldovskaya, 2022), and the relevant motives for juniors’ sporting activities were identified through the “Motivation of Sports Activities” questionnaire (Fomenko & Lukova, 2021). Results. Twenty-five correlations, including nineteen direct correlations and six inverse correlations, were established. It was established that the most loaded parameters of juniors’ self-attitudes are “self-acceptance” (SAc) with six correlations and “result-focused motivational orientation” (RsM) with seven correlations. Significant superiority of a high level of self-acceptance (Group 1) was determined by all the parameters of juniors’ motivational orientation. It was emphasized that superiority by such parameters of self-attitude as “self-management” (U = 1656.50; р = .031) and “self-acceptance” (U = 1448.00; р <.001) testifies to the significance of self-management and self-acceptance for junior athletes. It was underscored that continuous negative emotions, even in juniors with high personal achievements, are capable of destroying sports success, which is indicated by the only significant superiority of Group 4 (low levels of RsM) by the parameter “self-blame” (U = 1502.00; р <.001). Discussion and conclusions. It was substantiated that the research into the phenomenon of self-attitude in the structure of motivational orientation is the study of reflective characteristics of junior athletes’ self-awareness aimed at achieving optimal sports results in training, competitive, and recovery activities. The development of reflective abilities, the improvement of self-regulation readiness and the formation of self-attitude have a direct correlation with motivational orientation, which can have a positive effect on performance in sporting activities. It was recommended that the obtained scientific results should be implemented in the educational and training process of sports schools for children and youth.Item STRATEGIES FOR EXTREME SELF-ORGANIZATION AMONG HANDBALL PLAYERS(2024) Plokhikh, V.; Popovych, I. S.; Kruglov, K.; Sabadukha, O.; Melnyk, N.; Omelianiuk, S.; Hoian, I.; Попович, І. С.This study aims to conduct theoretical and empirical research into the strategies of extreme self- organization among handball players in competitive context. Methods: The research sample consisted of 34 athletes, aged 20–28 years (Мe = 22.00; М = 21.87; SD = ± 3.64), who had been actively involved in handball for 4–12 years and represented both women’s and men’s teams. Validated psycho-diagnostic tools, extensively tested in team sports research, were used. Additionally, purposeful non-participant observation was performed using standard protocols. Theoretical methods were employed to analyze, generalize, and explain the empirical results. Results: The research strategy included comparing the parameters of two attack lines, the first line (Group 1) and the second line (Group 2), to assess their extreme self-organization strategies. It was found that experienced handball players rely on perfectly practiced functional models of organization, focusing on permanent significant changes in spatio-temporal relations of a competitive situation. It was established that the dominant strategies are as follows: taking responsibility; self-control; problem-solving planning. It was found that the competitive strategy orientated towards social support is manifested moderately. The moderation is explained by the connection of the players’ game expectations with successful functional self-realization of teammates, rather than with the emotionally colored personal self-realization. It was established that the strategy of confrontation is statistically pronounced in the experienced handball players of the first line of attack. This preference was regarded as a consequence of the functionally determined and normatively provided close physical contact with the players of the team-competitor. It was highlighted that the excessive confrontational attitude of experienced players is compensated by distancing oneself from provoking circumstances. Discussion and conclusions. It was established that the strategies of handball players’ extreme self-organization are motivational-behavioral patterns, caused by stressogenic situations of a contest, the players’ role positions on the sports ground, external and internal factors of sporting activities and organizational-content features of handball competitions. It was substantiated that the strategies of extreme self-organization of the first and second lines of attack have regular different functional-content parameters. It was proved that the obtained results of the research into the strategies of extreme self-organization possess scientific novelty and are valuable for representatives of team sports.
