SUAREZ, S; CANIZARES, M  e  CARVAJAL, W. Attitudes and beliefs of high-performance cuban athletes about doping. CPD [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.2, pp.136-155.  Epub 12-Maio-2023. ISSN 1989-5879.

The present non-experimental and descriptive research intends to determine the main beliefs and attitudes in high-performance Cuban athletes regarding doping. A sample of 300 athletes belonging to national teams of 37 sports was taken, to which the Doping Attitudes and Beliefs Scale instrument was applied (Suárez and Ordoqui, 2019). The analysis of the data obtained was carried out through the empirical distribution of frequencies, the means and the standard deviation. The KMO and Barlett test were also used to validate the use of factor analysis and Pearson's Chi-square test. It was possible to verify in more than 50% of the sample, the presence of beliefs and attitudes of rejection towards the consumption of doping substances and the factors that athletes recognize as those with the highest incidence in the appearance of propensity behaviors towards doping were exposed.
