Resumen de Relationship between goal orientation, sports values and emotions in soccer
Achievement goal theory recognized two goal orientations: task and ego orientations (Nicholls, 1989). Furthermore, empirical evidence suggested three categories of sport values are important: moral values, competence values and status values (Lee & Cockman, 1995, Schwartz, 1992).
Additionally, the dualistic model of passion proposes the existence of two types of passion, namely harmonious and obsessive form (Vallerand et al., 2003). Taking these theoretical backgrounds together, the present study, examine the relation between perceived motivational climate, sports values and passion, hypothesizing two concepts: 1. That coach’s promotion of task-involvement will be more related to moral and competence values and moral and competence values will be associated with athletes’ harmonious passion. 2. That coach’s promotion of ego-involvement will be more related to athletes’ status values and status values will be associated with athletes’ obsessive passion.
