高校运动员目标取向和能力知觉对恐惧失败之预测

The Prediction of Goal Orientation and Perceived Competence on Fear of Failure among College Athletes

目的在探讨高校运动员目标取向和能力知觉对恐惧失败之预测力及其交互作用影响。方法:研究对象为360名来自台湾四所高校的甲组运动员,平均年龄为20.03岁,皆自愿完成填写一组测量运动目标取向、能力知觉以及恐惧失败等问卷。结果:经由多元阶层回归分析,发现任务取向、自我取向和能力知觉皆能有效预测恐惧失败。结论:本研究认为当运动员的动机倾向愈强调努力、进步和精熟技巧或者运动员自觉拥有较高的运动能力时,这些运动员就愈不怕表现失败;反之,如果运动员的目标取向偏好以打败他人作为能力指标时,他们就会更恐惧输掉比赛或表现不佳的后果。

Purpose： This study is to examine prediction and interaction of goal orientation and perceived competence on fear of failure among college athletes. Methods： 360 elite athletes from four university teams in Taiwan on the average aged 20. 03 years participated in the study. All the participants are asked to complete a series of questionnaires, which measures goal orientation, perceived competence, and fear of failure. Results： With a multiple hierarchical regression, it is found that task orientation, ego orientation, and perceived competence are effective predictors. Conclusion; it is suggested that when the athletes＇ disposition tend to emphasis more effort, progress, and mastery or athletes who perceive higher competence, they tend to fear less performance failure. On the contrast, if athletes＇ goal orientation prefers competent criterion in terms of beating others, they will fear more consequences of losing game or poor performance.
