- Contributions of one hypothetical model of predictive relationships between psychological skills and emotional intelligence in university student-athletes: A cross-sectional studyPublication . Mercader-Rubio, Isabel; Ángel, Nieves Gutiérrez; Brito-Costa, Sónia; ROSAS DA SILVA, SOFIA DE LURDES; Moisão, Ana; Furtado, GuilhermePsychological skills are considered in sport psychology as indispensable capabilities to analyze the athlete’s own vision of his or her own personality. These skills encompass self-confidence, positive and negative coping control, attentional control, visual-imaginative control, motiva-tional level, and attitudinal control. The significance of this research lies in demonstrating the relationship established between each of the dimensions of emotional intelligence and the con-stituent skills of the personality. As such, this study aims to investigate the relationship between the seven factors related to psychological skills and emotional intelligence (attention, clarity, and emotional regulation). The sample comprises 163 university students pursuing degrees in Phys-ical Activity and Sports Sciences, [70,9% (N = 117) men and 27.9% (N = 46) women] with a mean age of 20.33 years. As assessment instruments, we used two validated and standardized scales, the IPED and the TMMS-24. The main findings of this work allow us to affirm the existence of a relationship between the three dimensions of emotional intelligence and the control of both positive and negative coping, attentional control, visual-imaginative control, motivational level, and attitudinal control. In conclusion, this study underscores the necessity of cognitive and emotional training, in addition to physical training, to enhance these skills among both male and female athletes.
- Intrinsic Motivation: Knowledge, Achievement, and Experimentation in Sports Science Students—Relations with Emotional IntelligencePublication . Mercader-Rubio, Isabel; Ángel, Nieves Gutiérrez; ROSAS DA SILVA, SOFIA DE LURDES; Furtado, Guilherme; Brito-Costa, SóniaIn this paper, we have focused on the Self-Determination Theory, paying special attention to intrinsic motivation, which is understood as the motivation that leads the subject to perform a task without the expectation of obtaining an external reward. In the field of sport, motivation is one of the most studied variables and one of the most researched, since it is closely related to the reasons that lead the athletes to start, maintain, and abandon sports practice. The main objective of this study is to analyze the relationship between intrinsic motivation (IM) and emotional intelligence from the theoretical contributions of the Self-Determination Theory. The specific objectives are to analyze attention, clarity, and emotional regulation, as well as intrinsic motivation to acquire knowledge. Additionally, we aim to explore the relationship between attention, clarity, and emotional regulation and the intrinsic motivation to achieve something. Lastly, we investigate the correspondence between attention, clarity, and emotional regulation and the intrinsic motivation to experience stimuli. The sample consists of 163 undergraduate and master’s students related to Physical Activity and Sports Sciences, studying at a Spanish public university, located in the southeast region of Andalusia—specifically, in the city of Almería. The participants had a mean age of 20.33 years. In terms of gender, 70.9% (n = 117) were men and 27.9% (n = 46) women. In terms of degree, 76.7% (n = 147) were undergraduate students and 23.3% (n = 18) were postgraduate students. The Sports Motivation Scale (SMS/EMD) was used to assess intrinsic motivation, and the TMMS-24 was used to assess emotional intelligence. The main findings of this research demonstrate the existence of a relationship between the three dimensions of emotional intelligence (emotional attention, emotional clarity, and emotional regulation) and intrinsic motivation (intrinsic motivation to know something, intrinsic motivation to achieve something, and intrinsic motivation to experience stimulation). These findings emphasize the importance of emotional intelligence for intrinsic motivation.
- The PAFMUP Project - Physical Activity, Fitness, Motor Competence and Mental Health of Portuguese University Students: Results from a Pilot StudyPublication . Gomes, Ricardo; Furtado, Guilherme; Pinto, João; Dias, Gonçalo Nuno Figueiredo; Mendes, RuiThe role of physical health in enhancing mental well-being is well known. This pilot study examines how different aspects of physical activity and motor skills correlate with mental health outcomes in this demographic. Using a combination of self-reported questionnaires and objective fitness tests, data were collected from a sample of 206 students at the Coimbra School of Education in Portugal. Key metrics included accelerometry-based physical activity levels, aerobic and muscular fitness, agility and balance, motor competence, and mental health indicators such as general wellbeing, stress perception, sleep quality and quality of life. Despite low levels of motor competence, physical activity and fitness, preliminary findings suggest a significant positive relationship between regular physical activity and improved mental health, with higher fitness levels and better motor competence also associated with reduced stress perception. These results underline the importance of integrating physical health initiatives into university settings to promote overall student well-being. The study highlights potential areas for further research, including longitudinal analyses and targeted interventions to enhance physical and mental health.
