O presente trabalho teve como objetivo estudar a relação entre a persistência, a ambição
e o otimismo, assim como o seu impacto na performance em atletas do circuito mundial
de surf (WQS). Participaram neste estudo 98 indivíduos de ambos os sexos com idades
compreendidas entre os 16 e os 36 anos (M = 23.08; DP = 4.42), que foram divididos
em dois grupos (abaixo e acima do ranking 100). Foi administrado um protocolo de
avaliação constituído por um Questionário Sociodemográfico, a Escala de Persistência
(GRIT-S), a Escala de Ambição (AS) e o Teste de Orientação de Vida-Revisto (LOTR).
Os resultados mostraram que as variáveis consideradas apresentam uma relação
direta entre si, enquanto a nível do desempenho desportivo a perseverança do esforço
foi a variável que melhor diferenciou os grupos. Os resultados são discutidos, e são
analisadas as limitações e sugestões para estudos futuros.

A total of 98 individuals of both sexes, aged 16-36 years (M = 23.08; SD = 4.42), were divided into two groups (below and above the ranking 100). Participants answered an evaluation protocol consisting of a Sociodemographic Questionnaire, the Persistence Scale (GRIT-S), the Ambition Scale (AS) and the Life-Revised Guidance Test (LOT-R) was administered. Results showed that the variables considered present a direct relationship between them, while at the level of the sport performance the perseverance of the effort was the variable that best differentiated the groups. The results are discussed, and the limitations and suggestions for future studies are analyzed.
