FREIRE, GLM et al. The influence of perfectionistic traits on goal orientations of young athletes. CPD [online]. 2022, vol.22, n.1, pp.116-123. Epub 19-Sep-2022. ISSN 1989-5879. https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/cpd.420151.
This cross-sectional study verified the association between perfectionism traits and goal orientation of young athletes. Participants were 413 Brazilian youth athletes (227 boys and 186 girls), aged between 16.04±.89 years, who competed in the Pernambuco School Games final phase in 2017, Brazil. The instruments used were the Sport Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale-2 (SMPS-2) and the Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire (TEOSQ). Data analysis was conducted through Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, Pearson Correlation and Multiple Regression Analysis (p <.05). Multiple regression analyses found that perfectionistic strivings (personal standards/organization) was significantly and positively associated with task orientation (β = .39; p = .001) and perfectionistic concerns (perceived parental pressure) had a significant and positive association with the ego orientation (β = .25; p = .001). It was concluded that young athletes have more perfectionistic strivings and higher task orientation. Furthermore, positive associations of perfectionistic strivings with task orientation were perceived, while perfectionist concerns were associated with ego orientation.
