Item COMPARATIVE RESEARCH ON CREATIVITY IN JUNIORS' MOTIVATION STRUCTURE(2025) Popovych, I. S.; Unhurian, N.; Varnava, U.; Bilosevych, I.; Soroka, O.; Dobrovolska, N.; Hoian, I.; Попович, І. С.The aim of this study was to perform theoretical–empirical research into the psychological parameters of creativity within the motivation structure of junior athletes and to compare the findings by gender and sport. Methods: The research sample consisted of 90 junior athletes (45 males, 45 females), representing both team sports (volleyball, mini-football, football, and handball) and individual sports (Greco–Roman wrestling, artistic gymnastics, weightlifting, chess, and boxing). The sample was evenly split, with 45 athletes from each group. Junior athletes were trained at sports schools for children and youth in Ukraine, represented junior teams of professional clubs, and participated in national and international tournaments, achieving success in Ukrainian, European, and World championships. The following descriptive frequency characteristics were recorded by age: M = 17.39; SD = ±3.48; Мe = 17.50. Valid and reliable tools, tested in sports studies on junior samples, were applied to establish the parameters of creativity and motivation. Results. A statistically significant superiority of junior female athletes (Group 1) was found in two parameters of motivation: intrinsic motivation (U = 776.50; p = .049) and social status (U = 774.00; p = .046). No superiority was identified in the parameters of creativity. No statistically significant difference was found between the sample of juniors engaging in team sports (Group I) and the sample of juniors engaging in individual sports (Group II). The use of Spearman’s correlation coefficient (rs) allowed us to establish that the parameters of creativity are low-loaded with motivational intentions, and, correspondingly, juniors’ motivation is low-dependent on creativity. The comparison of two groups of the levels of creativity parameters (Group A and Group B) allowed us to identify a superiority in the parameters “extrinsic positive motivation” and “general activeness”, indicating the focus of creativity on the content component of competitive activity. There is a caveat that “comfort” is the most dependent parameter that can have a negative impact on the content component of competitive activity. Discussion and conclusions. It was substantiated that the research into the phenomenon and psychological content parameters of creativity in juniors’ motivation structure is a successful attempt to establish psychological correlations and find statistical differences in their motivation. Operationalization of the obtained results is significant in the context of a local competitive situation. It is recommended that the obtained statistical results and algorithms for establishing psychological correlations and finding differences be considered by subjects in sporting activities who work with junior athletes.Item ANXIETY AS A MULTIFACETED PHENOMENON WITHIN THE MOTIVATIONAL ORIENTATION OF JUNIOR ATHLETES(2024) Popovych, I.; Попович, I.; Rodchenkova, I.; Lukjanchenko, V.; Yurkiv, Y.; Bilous, R.; Shevchenko, N.; Hoian, I.The objective is to empirically investigate statistically significant correlations and elucidate determinants of high and low anxiety parameters within the motivational orientation dimensions of junior athletes. The study encompassed male and female junior athletes (n = 96) (Мe = 17; М = 17.38; SD = ±1.71) representing individual sports from sports schools for children and young people – “SSSYOR №1” in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine and “LSSCY Enerhetyk” in Lviv, Ukraine – and youth academies of professional handball clubs: “HC Dniprianka” in Kherson, Ukraine and “HC Real” in Mykolaiv, Ukraine and football club “FC Enerhiya” in Lviv, Ukraine. Methods: valid and reliable methods were applied to find the parameters of anxiety and motivational orientation of the respondents before the beginning of the game. Additionally, a planned observation with standard blanks was used. Statistical coefficients were used to establish significant correlations. Results. It was found that the junior athletes with a low level (Group 1) of the parameters of anxiety have an advantage in the level of motivation over the athletes with a high level (Group 2). A lack of advantage in the parameters of situational and personal social protection – SSP (U = 623.50; p = .549) and PSP (U = 532.00; p = .091) – was explained by an equally important impact of this protection for the respondents with a high level and those with a low level. It was proved that high and low psychological content parameter of anxiety have statistically significant correlations with the respondents’ motivational orientation: Group 1 – thirty correlations; Group 2 – twenty seven correlations. It was empirically established that situational (SAEP) and personal (PAEP) anxious evaluation of prospects has a positive impact on subject-directed (SbM) and socially-directed (ScM) motivational orientation in the two research groups. Discussion and conclusions. It was substantiated that the impact of the parameters of SAEP and PAEP are within the scope of a personal choice, social pressure and an athlete’s construction of the future that requires psychological assistance and support of coaching and teaching staff. It was highlighted that the impact of spectators, social pressure of mass-media, expectations of fans, coaching staff and management of an organization (sports school/professional club) and junior athletes’ aspirations to meet other peoples’ expectations are wrong tactics and strategies of training and competitive process. We can generalize that anxiety is a multifaceted phenomenon in the dimensions of motivational orientation of junior athletes combining a complex of internal and external factors determining psychophysiological reactions of a junior athlete’s body and their motivational orientation. We recommend that the obtained results should be taken into consideration by coaches working with juniorsItem TIME DECENTRATIONS OF JUNIOR ATHLETES UNDER CHANGED CONDITIONS OF COMPETITIVE ACTIVITY(2024) Hrys, A; Popovych, I.; Попович, І.; Zelenko, O.; Pavliuk, M.; Fedorenko, L.; Prachenko, O.; Huzar, V.The purpose of the research is to find and substantiate a correlation between time decentrations and self regulation of junior athletes under changed conditions of competitive activity. Methods. The main methods of a summative strategy of the research with elements of comparison were two valid and reliable psycho-diagnostic instruments: an adapted version of the questionnaire “Zimbardo Time Perspective Inventory” (Zimbardo & Gonzalez, 1984) and a modified version of the questionnaire “Style of Self-regulation of Behavior” (Morosanova, 2004). Objective observation and structured interviews with data recorded in specialized protocol forms were supplementary research methods. Standard coefficients were employed to identify statistically significant differences. Results: The concept of time decentrations was defined, emphasizing their significance in junior sports. Seventeen statistically significant correlations were established (p ≤ .050; p ≤ .010). Temporal decentralization future (TDF) and temporal decentralization positive past (TDPP) exhibited the highest number of correlations, with six each. The strongest positive correlation of TDF with “Planning Training Activity” (PTA) (rs = .311; p ≤ .010) was established. It was substantiated that the strongest correlation between the dimensions “Planning Training Activity” (rs = .311; p ≤ .010) with Temporal Decentralization Future in combination with the other two strong (p ≤ .010) correlations of the dimension “Independence of Decision Making”: TDF (rs = .302) and TDPP (rs = .221) constitute an efficient self-regulation construct of achieving a victory result under changed conditions of competitive activity. Comparison of self-regulation parameters of respondents of an optimal profile (Group II) and a general profile (Group I) of time decentration was performed. Statistically significant differences (p ≤ .050; p ≤ .010) were found by three self-regulation parameters: “Planning Training Activity”, “Modelling Competitive Activity” and “Independence of Decision-Making”. Discussion and conclusions. The identified differences between time decentrations possess scientific novelty and are valuable for tactical-technical preparation of junior athletes. Operationalization of the obtained results can increase resourcefulness of junior athletes and create a competitive advantage over rivals under usual and changed conditions of competitive activityItem OPERATIONALIZING THE TACTICAL THOUGHT PROCESSES AND COMPETITIVE ACTIVITY PARAMETERS AMONG JUNIOR FEMALE HANDBALL PLAYERS THROUGH THE UTILIZATION OF BASIC GAME ROLES(2023) Popovych, I. S.; Yakovleva, S.; Zavatska, N.; Pavliuk, M.; Zelenko, O.; Huzar, V.; Radul, B.; Попович, І. С.The objective of this study is to convey the findings from an empirical investigation into the tactical thinking and competitive activity parameters of junior female handball players, followed by their operationalization based on fundamental game roles. The study entails a comparison and operationalization of empirical results pertaining to key content parameters, intended for integration into the educational and training processes, as well as competitive engagements of handball players. The research involved junior female athletes aged 15 to 19, regardless of their qualification level, representing women’s handball clubs in the Ukrainian Championship (the Junior League). Methods. The method “Examination of the profile of athletes’ thinking” (Hanzen et al., 2001) was applied; the key content parameters of competitive activity: intensity, activeness, preciseness, fault, efficiency and reliability were determined by a proprietary complex of tested indicators of handball players’ attack/defense given in the studies by L. Latyshkevich & L. Manevich (1990); F. Terzy et al. (2009); I. Turchyn (1988). Results. Statistically significant differences (p<.050; p<.010; p<.001) were registered using the Kruskal–Wallis H test by all the types of thinking: subject thinking (SbTh), symbolic thinking (SmTh), logical thinking (LgTh), visual thinking (VsTh) and creative thinking (CrTh) of junior handball players by the basic game roles. Statistically significant differences (p<.050; p<.010; p<.001) were found using the Kruskal–Wallis H test by all the parameters of junior handball players’ competitiveness by the basic game roles. It was found and substantiated that the most important types of handball players’ thinking in the context of competitive activity are: logical thinking – four statistically significant correlations (p<.050) with the parameters of competitiveness (the coefficient of precise passes; the coefficient of a player’s efficiency; the coefficient of a player’s reliability; a complex indicator of competitive activity); creative thinking – three statistically significant correlations (p<.050; p<.010) with the parameters of competitiveness (the coefficient of precise passes; the coefficient of a player’s efficiency; a complex indicator of competitive activity) and subject thinking – two statistically significant correlations (p<.050) with the parameters of competitiveness (the coefficient of precise passes; the coefficient of a player’s reliability). Discussion and conclusions. The study explains that the obtained high indices of subject and logical thinking of team center players (fullbacks, centers, center-halves) are determined by educational-training process. The study regards a high level of development of the above types of thinking as a technological game construct of a team. Attention is paid to high levels of visual and creative thinking of line players which are determined by a situation of development which encourages them to play in attack through achieving a desirable image and scoring a goal unconventionally. The study found a considerable number of scientific facts which should be introduced into educational-professional activity of women’s handball teams.Item OPERATIONALIZATION OF PHYSICAL WORK ABILITY OF YOUNG ATHLETES IN TERMS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING(2023) Popovych, I. S.; Shevchenko, N. F.; Raievska, Ya.; Myshchyshyn, M.; Hoian, I.; Yakovleva, S. D.; Los, O.; Попович, І. С.Purpose of the empirical research is to operationalize physical work ability of young athletes in the dimensions of psychological well-being. The research participants comprise Group 1 – male and female athletes in team sports (n=46; 52.87%): football and handball, and Group 2 – male and female athletes in individual sports (n=41; 47.13%): rhythmic gymnastics and boxing. Methods: the questionnaire “The Scales of psychological wellbeing” (“SPW”) (Ryff, 1989; adapted by N. Lepeshinsky, 2007); Ruffier’s Index (RI) was determined by the author’s trial – J. Ruffier (1951), adapted by S. Vozniy and I. Malyarenko (2020); the questionnaire “Мotivation for achieving success” (“MAS”) T. Elers (2002). Results. It was established that junior athletes in team sports (Group 1) have a statistically significant advantage by two dimensions: positive relations (PR) (U=566.00; p=.001) and environment management (EM) (U=598.00; p=.003). A statistically significant advantage of junior athletes in individual sports was registered by four parameters (Group 2): self-acceptance (SA) (U=378.00; p=.000), personal growth (PG) (U=393.00; p=.000), Ruffier’s Index (RI) (U=612.00; p=.005) and motivation for achieving success (MAS) (U=562.00; p=.001). We identified four statistically significant correlations by (р≤.01) Ruffier’s Index in Group 1 with the following parameters: motivation for achieving success, psychological wellbeing, purpose in life, positive relations; three statistically significant correlations (р≤.05; р≤.01) in Group 2: motivation for achieving success, positive relations and autonomous position. It was found that the respondents with a high level of physical work ability (Group I) have an advantage by the parameters PWB (U=651.500; p=.021) and MAS (U=46.500; p=.000). Conclusions. The research focuses on permanent orientation of the representatives of individual sports (Group 2) towards internalized personal development that makes them strongly dissatisfied with their personal achievements and high indexes of physical work ability do not result in psychological well-being (rs=.182; p>.05). The study highlights that a high level of physical work ability of young athletes (Group I) is accompanied by high indexes of motivation for achieving success and psychological well-being. It was generalized that operationalization of physical work ability in the dimensions of psychological well-being allowed discovering a number of important scientific facts which should be introduced into educational and training process of juniors.Item EXPECTATIVAS SOCIALES DE LOS ESPECIALISTAS DEL PERFIL SOCIONÓMICO: FORMACIÓN, INNOVACIONES, REFORMAS(2022) Popovych, I. S.; Kononenko, O. Yu.; Los, O.; Khrystiuk, S.; Avramenko, A.; Попович, І. С.The purpose of the research is to examine psychological content of educational and vocational training, innovations and reforms and to measure the expectations of the subjects of the educational process. Presents a modern view on the problem of professional training of psychologists in the current conditions of reforming education. It presents a correlation matrix and a correlation pleiade of significant correlations of social expectations with the total coefficient of readiness for innovative activity. The study emphasizes that positive correlations at the level (p<.01): ESP (rs = .256), REA (rs = .171), IG (rs = .156) and CE (rs = .167) are the most important ones. It highlights that the only negative correlation with internal locus-control LSI (rs = -.099; p<.05) is the most dangerous one, since excessive ego-concentration has a negative impact on innovations and modernization of education. The research summarizes that it is necessary to work with expectations of subjects of educational process, since they are a projection of a personal model of constructing the future and ensure a desirable result. El propósito es investigar el contenido psicológico de la formación profesional, las innovaciones y reformas y medir las expectativas de sujetos del proceso educativo. Se da una visión moderna sobre el problema de la formación profesional de los psicólogos en las condiciones actuales de la reformación de la enseñanza. Se ha construido la matriz de correlación y la pléyade de correlación de las conexiones significativas entre las expectativas sociales y el coeficiente total de la preparación para la actividad innovadora. Se ha constatado que las conexiones más importantes son las positivas a nivel (p<.01): ESP (rs = .256), REA (rs = .171), IG (rs = .156) y CE (rs = .167). Se ha enfocado que la única conexión negativa con el locus-control sobre si mismo LSI (rs = -.099; p<.05) es la más peligrosa, ya que la excesiva autoconcentración influye de modo negativo en la innovación y la modernización de la esfera educativa. Se ha generalizado que es necesario trabajar con las expectativas de los sujetos del proceso educativo, ya que actúan como la proyección por la personalidad del modelo de la construcción del futuro y aseguran el resultado deseado.
