O presente estudo foi realizado com o objetivo de comparar populações de atletas
de desporto tradicional e E-sports e a população não desportista, nas suas dificuldades de
regulação emocional e em outras diferenças individuais referentes a: personalidade,
cronótipo e tomada de decisão.
A amostra foi constituída por 212 participantes, onde 106 praticam desporto
tradicional, 21 E-sports e 85 não desportistas. As idades variaram entre os 16 anos e os
62 anos (M = 30.33, DP = 13.92), adicionalmente 129 são do género feminino, 81 do
género masculino, 1 pessoa preferiu não dizer e 1 pessoa não-binária.
O estudo foi conduzido através de um questionário online, onde foram utilizados
como instrumentos para medir cada variável: a Escala de Dificuldades de Regulação
Emocional (Coutinho et al., 2010), para avaliar as dificuldades emocionais; o Big Five
Inventory – versão de 10 itens (Bártolo-Ribeiro, 2017), para avaliar a personalidade; o
item único baseado no rMEQ-5 para medir o cronótipo (Loureiro & Garcia-Marques,
2015); e o Cognitive Reflection Test (CRT; Sequeira et al., 2014), para avaliar a tomada
de decisão.
Os principais resultados sugerem que os atletas de E-sports apresentam
dificuldades marginalmente superiores de regulação emocional comparativamente aos
atletas de desporto tradicional. Verificou-se também uma tendência para o género
feminino apresentar maiores dificuldades de regulação emocional que o género
masculino. Atletas de E-sports evidenciaram respostas mais racionais que atletas de
desporto tradicional. Finalmente, dificuldades de regulação emocional correlacionaram se positivamente com maior vespertinidade cronotípica e com o traço de personalidade
de Neuroticismo e negativamente com o traço Extroversão.
ABSTRACT: The present study sought to understand how difficulties in emotion regulation differ in athletes from tradicional sports, E-sports and non-athletes. Additionally, individual differences in these groups were explored through personality, chronotype and decision making. This study’s sample was composed of 212 participants, where 106 practice traditional sports, 21 practice E-sports and 85 non-athletes. Participants age ranged from 16 years and 62 years old (M = 30.33, DP = 13.92), while 129 were female, 81 males, 1 chose not to say and 1 non-binary. To measure the variables in question the following instruments were used: to evaluate emotion regulation difficulties, the Difficulties in Emotion Regulation Scale (Coutinho et al., 2010); to assess personality, the Big Five Inventory – 10 – PT (Bártolo Ribeiro, 2017); to assess chronotype, the rMEQ-5 (Loureiro & Garcia-Marques, 2015); to evaluate decision making, the Cognitive Reflection Test (Sequeira et al., 2014). The main results of this study suggest that E-sports athletes have marginally more difficulties in emotion regulation that traditional sport athletes and that females also had this tendency comparative to male participants. Neuroticism was also positively correlated with worse emotion regulation, while Extroversion with better regulation. Moreover, E-sports athletes showed more rational responses than traditional sports athletes, suggesting differences in cognitive function in these populations. Lastly, eveningness and Neuroticism were positively correlated with more difficulties in emotion regulation, while Extroversion was negatively correlated.
