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 CORRELATION OF THE COACH’S QUALITIES AND JUNIOR ATHLETES’ SELF-EFFICACY(2023) Halian, I. M.; Popovych, I. S.; Vovk, V.; Kariyev, A.; Poleshchuk, L.; Halian, O.; Попович, І. С.The purpose is to examine correlations between the coach’s personal and professional qualities and junior athletes with different levels of self-efficacy (n=103). Methods: correlation and cluster analyses, valid psychodiagnostic methods, coefficients for establishing statistical significance. Results. Self-efficacy was studied as a factor of successfulness in sporting activities and an indispensable component of professional training for junior athletes. The meaning of “subject activity” (SA) and “interpersonal communication” (IC) as components of junior athletes’ self-efficacy was examined. A statistically significant correlation (p<.05; p<.01) of the coach’s qualities and SA (t = -11.905; p=.000) and IC (t = -2.222; p=.040) was established. There were statistically significant differences in manifestation of self-efficacy of the junior athletes in Group 1 and Group 2 by scale SA (t = -11.905; p=.000); Group I and Group II by scale IC (t = -2.222, p=.040). The research shows that athletes’ evaluation of the coach’s personal and professional qualities is an important factor in the formation of selfefficacy both in the area of “subject activity” and in the area “interpersonal communication”. Junior athletes with a high level of self-efficacy by the criterion SA (Group 1) and IC (Group I) evaluate the coach’s personal and professional qualities at a high level by the following parameters: the gnostic parameter (М1=5.78±.66; М2=5.00±.866); the emotional parameter (М1=6.22±1.98; М2=7.33±.707); the behavioral parameter (М1=6.56±1.59; М2=6.8±1.33). Junior athletes with a low level of self-efficacy by the criterion SA (Group 2) and IC (Group ІІ) evaluated the coach’s role in their success in the following way: the gnostic parameter (М1=3.64±.505; М2=4.27±.1.42); the emotional parameter (М1=5.22±1.37; М2=4.18±.603); the behavioral parameter (М1=5.0±1.48; М2=4.64±.1.12). Pearson’s (R) correlation analysis allowed finding that evaluation of the coach’s professional qualities (R= 259; p<.01) and relationships between junior athletes and the coach (R=.178; p<.05) are important for the formation of self-efficacy related to sport qualification upgrading SA. The development of self-efficacy related to interpersonal communication IC depends on affection for the coach’s personality (R=.301; p<.01) and real relationships between junior athletes and the coach (R=.261; p<.01). Conclusions. It is generalized that the understanding of the role of the coach’s personal and professional qualities in increasing self-efficacy will contribute to better organization of sports pedagogical process, the development of skills in mutual constructive activity for achieving high sport results. Research on relationships “coachathletes” is considered to be promising in the context of improving the coach’s qualification and the formation of “team self-efficacy” in young athletes.
