The objective of this study was to test a predictive model that analyzes the sequence: perfectionist concerns, fear of failure, and consequences of positive and negative affects in sports training sessions in children and adolescents. As well as analyzing the mediating role of fear to fail. From perfectionist concerns we focus on the relative power of the influence of interpersonal perfectionism, specifically on two facets, parental pressure and coach pressure. A total of 142 federated athletes of both sexes (54% women, 46% men) participated, with an average age of 12.5 years (SD = 1.81), who answered a set of questionnaires to measure the study variables. The results showed that the perception of pressure exerted by two primary sources of evaluation of athletes, parents and coach, predict negative affects, only if the athlete develops the fear of failure during sports training. In conclusion, the fear of failure is a subjective emotion, which has an environmental background (interpersonal perfectionism) and affective consequences.
