Advisor(s)
Abstract(s)
No seio das equipas desportivas, os jogadores estão em constante interação com os seus
colegas de equipa e treinadores, tomando decisões que revelam uma maior ou menor tendência
para cooperar. Para além disso, os jogadores focam os seus objetivos para a tarefa, procurando
melhorar o seu desempenho e desenvolver as suas capacidades, ou para o ego, querendo
demonstrar superioridade em relação aos outros. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar as
relações entre a Cooperação, a Orientação Motivacional e os seus impactos no Rendimento e a
existência de um efeito moderador da Orientação Motivacional na relação entre a Cooperação
e o Rendimento. Para isso, conduziu-se um estudo com a participação de 146 atletas masculinos
de 3 modalidades diferentes (Futebol, Andebol, Futsal), de escalões de formação ou amadores.
A orientação motivacional foi medida através da versão portuguesa do Questionário de
Orientação Motivacional para a Tarefa/Ego, a Cooperação com o Questionário de Cooperação
Desportiva e o Rendimento através de um instrumento próprio realizado pela equipa de
investigação e, posteriormente, validado para esta amostra. Os resultados confirmaram as
hipóteses de que a Orientação Motivacional e a Cooperação estão associadas positivamente e
de forma significativa com o Rendimento, sendo que a existência de um efeito moderador da
Orientação Motivacional na relação entre a Cooperação e a Orientação Motivacional foi
rejeitada. Em suma, os resultados mostram um efeito positivo da Cooperação e da Orientação
Motivacional no Rendimento e a necessidade de fazer novos estudos que possam avaliar outro
tipo de relações entre estas variáveis.
ABSTRACT: Within the sports teams the players are in constant interaction with their teammates and coaches making decisions that show more or less tendency to cooperate. Additionally, players focus their goals on the task, seeking to improve their performance and develop their skills, or on the ego, wanting to demonstrate superiority over others. This study aimed to analyse the relationship between Cooperation, Goal Orientation and their impact on the Performance and the existence of a moderating effect of Goal Orientation on the relationship between cooperation and performance. For this purpose we conducted a study involving 146 male athletes from three different sports (Football, Handball, and Futsal) of the youth teams or amateur. The goal orientation was measured by the Portuguese version of the Task / Ego Orientation in Sports Questionnaire, Cooperation with the Sports Cooperation Questionnaire and Performance through our own instrument made by the research team and later validated for this sample. The results confirmed the hypothesis that Goal Orientation and Cooperation are associated positively and significantly with Performance, and that the hypothesis of a moderating effect by Goal Orientation on the relationship between Cooperation and Performance was rejected. In short, the results show a positive effect of Cooperation and Goal Orientation in Performance and the need to make new studies to evaluate other relationships between these variables.
