    PROPENSITY FOR ADVENTUROUSNESS IN THE MOTIVATIONAL STRUCTURE OF JUNIOR ATHLETES
    (2024) Popovych, I. S.; Kolly-Shamne, A.; Piletska, L.; Soroka, O.; Hoian, I.; Yaremchuk, V.; Huzar, V.; Попович, І. С.
    This study aims to establish statistical correlations between the propensity for adventurousness and components of junior athletes' motivational structures. Methods: The sample consisted of juniors actively involved in competitive, training, and rehabilitative sports, regularly participating in competitions ranging from regional to international levels, including European, World, and Olympic events. The sample includes an equal number of male (n = 65; 50.00%) and female (n = 65; 50.00%) participants, as well as an equal representation from team sports (n = 65; 50.00%) and individual sports (n = 65; 50.00%), randomly selected. The size of the total sample was: n = 130 respondents aged from 17 to 19 years. The following descriptive characteristics were obtained: М = 18.38; SD = ±3.08; Мe = 18.50. The applied psycho-diagnostic tools tested in numerous studies on sports psychology, on junior samples are valid, reliable and representative. Results: Twenty-one statistically significant correlations of the parameters of propensity for adventurousness with motives for engaging in sports and thirty- four correlations with motives for achieving a sports result (p ≤ .050; p ≤ .010; p ≤ .001) were established using Spearman’s coefficient (rs). It was found that the parameters of propensity for adventurousness “emotional- motivational indicator of adventurousness” and “energy indicator of adventurousness” are the most dependent ones. It was explained by the fact that these components in junior athletes are a powerful mental resource which should be supported, developed and directed at volitional self-regulation. An algorithm for creating a profile of propensity for adventurousness was proposed. Discussion and conclusions: Comparison of the researched groups with a high level (Group 1) and a low level (Group 2) of propensity for adventurousness allowed summarizing that the athletes with a high level are guided by the desire for new sensations accompanied by adrenaline rush, frequent changes goals during sports competitions and by an immense desire for social self- affirmation. The athletes with a low level strive to improve sports skills, work on a procedural component accompanied by control, volitional efforts and self-regulation of sports behavior. It is recommended that the obtained results should be taken into consideration by coaches, psychologists and managers of sports institutions working with junior athletes.

    PSYCHOLOGICAL CONTENT PARAMETERS OF ATTENTION IN THE STRUCTURE OF TIME PERSPECTIVE OF YOUNG FEMALE ATHLETES: COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
    (2023) Popovych, I. S.; Hulias, I.; Serbin, Iy.; Piletska, L.; Zahrai, L.; Mashchak, S.; Попович, І. С.
    The purpose of the research is to determine dependence of the parameters of attention on the dominating time perspective and compare significant differences in the representatives of individual and team sports. The research participants are female athletes of sports schools for children and youth. The sample of individual sports (Group 1) included representatives of rhythmic gymnastics and track and field (n = 35; 52.24%). The sample of team sports (Group 2) involved of handball players and volleyball players (n = 32; 47.76%). Research methods applied: “Schulte Tables” (Rogov, 1999), “Landolt C Rings”, (Pashukova et al., 1996); “Munsterberg Test” (Pashukova et al., 1996); “Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory” (Zimbardo & Gonzalez, 1984). Results. A graphical structure of young female athletes’ time perspective was created. No significant differences between the parameters of attention between the athletes in individual (Group 1) and team sports (Group 2) were found. The research substantiates that the formation of the parameters of attention in youth does not depend on a kind of sport. Correlations between the parameters of attention and the parameters of time perspective were determined (р<.05; р<.01). It was established that the future (F) has most significant correlations – four – with the main parameters of attention: stability (.095; p≤.05), concentration (.107; p≤.05), volume (.212; p≤.01) and selectivity (.094; p≤.05). It was emphasized that domination of orientation towards the future in the dimensions of attention is a factor of successful educational and training activities of young female athletes. There were differences between the groups of athletes with different parameters of attention determined by the median (Me). It was proved that the formation of high levels of attention ensures achievement of the results of educational and training activities of young female athletes and focuses their activity in the dimensions of time orientations: the future (F), the hedonistic present (HP), the positive past (PP). Conclusions. The obtained empirical facts should be operationalized into educational and training activities at sports schools for children and youth.
