Abstract

Our primary objectives in this study were to translate and provide psychometric support for the Coach Athlete Relationship Questionnaire (CART-Q) Portuguese version, assess its invariance across sex, and explore its nomological validity in relation to enjoyment. Our sample participants were 470 athletes (226 females, 244 males) aged between 16 to 39 years from various individual and team sports. We found that the translated Portuguese version of the CART-Q exhibited satisfactory test-retest reliability and can serve as a reliable tool for evaluating the core constructs of the coach-athlete relationship - closeness, commitment, and complementarity. Moreover, this instrument showed evidence of nomological validity through significant positive correlations between its underlying factors and athletes' enjoyment with their sport. The proposed model for explaining item variance was also found to be invariant between male and female respondents. We recommend further use of this instrument in research and practical applications.

在葡萄牙运动员样本中初步验证教练与运动员关系问卷。

本研究的主要目的是翻译葡萄牙语版的 "教练与运动员关系问卷"（CART-Q）并为其提供心理测量支持，评估其在不同性别间的不变性，并探讨其与乐趣相关的名义效度。我们的样本参与者是 470 名运动员（女性 226 人，男性 244 人），年龄在 16 岁至 39 岁之间，来自不同的个人和团体运动项目。我们发现，CART-Q 的葡萄牙语翻译版显示出令人满意的测试-再测试可靠性，可以作为评估教练-运动员关系的核心结构--亲密性、承诺性和互补性--的可靠工具。此外，该工具的基本因素与运动员对其运动的喜爱程度之间存在显著的正相关，这也证明了该工具的名义效度。我们还发现，所提出的解释项目变异的模型在男性和女性受访者之间是不变的。我们建议在研究和实际应用中进一步使用该工具。
