Abstract

This paper presents a model that analyses the relationship between the coach’s emotional competences and the training climate as predictors of the youngsters’ emotional competences and psychological well-being. In the present study, 309 athletes and 17 coaches participated in the study. A general predictive model was estimated with path analysis and the maximum robust likelihood (MLR) estimation method. The results showed that the coach’s emotional competences are associated with autonomy-supportive climates (β = .15, p < .005). This climate is related to youth’s emotional competences (β = .30, p < .005) and lower emotional (β = -.27, p < .005), behavioural (β = -.51, p < .005), and social (β = -.33, p < .005) symptomatology. These results have important practical implications in designing interventions that promote coaches’ emotional competences given its association with autonomy-supportive climates, which in turn are related to athletes’ emotional competences and psychological well-being. Keywords: coaching, athletes, autonomy-supportive climate, mental health, well-being.

教练员在青年运动员情绪能力和心理健康中的作用

本文提出了一个模型，分析了教练的情绪能力和训练氛围之间的关系，作为青少年情绪能力和心理健康的预测因素。在本研究中，309名运动员和17名教练参与了这项研究。利用路径分析和最大鲁棒似然（MLR）估计方法对一个通用预测模型进行了估计。结果表明，教练的情绪能力与自主支持气氛有关（β=.15，p<.005）。这种气氛与青年的情绪能力（β=.30，p<.001）和较低的情绪（β=.27，p<.05）、行为（β=.51，p<0.005）和社会（β=-33，p<.005）症状学有关。这些结果对设计促进教练情绪能力的干预措施具有重要的实际意义，因为它与自主支持气氛有关，而自主支持气氛又与运动员的情绪能力和心理健康有关。关键词：教练，运动员，自主性支持气氛，心理健康，幸福感。
