СРАВНИТЕЛЕН АНАЛИЗ НА МОТИВАЦИОННИЯ КЛИМАТ ПРИ 13–14-ГОДИШНИ БАСКЕТБОЛИСТКИ ОТ ЗОНА „МИЗИЯ”
COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE MOTIVATION CLIMATE IN 13-14-YEAR-OLD BASKETBALL PLAYERS FROM THE "MIZIA" AREA

Summary/Abstract: Research on motivation in the field of sports and physical activity is particularly relevant because it is considered a prerequisite for achieving success. A significant number of studies in the field of sport psychology have attempted to explain the impact of various motivational attitudes on sport performance. A significant amount of contemporary research is based on goal orientation theory. The motivation to engage in sport includes different goals, motivations for engaging in sport and goal orientations. The purpose of the present study is to compare and analyze the determinants of the motivational climate in 13-14-year-old basketball players from the "Mizia" area. In the current experiment, the following tasks are defined: 1. To investigate the specificity of the variables of the motivational climate in adolescent basketball players from the "Mizia" zone. 2. To compare and analyze the arithmetic mean values of the studied determinants in 13-14-year-old basketball players from the four studied teams. The scope of the experiment is 56 female basketball players (14 per team) aged 13-14 from the teams of "Chardafon", Gabrovo, "Danube Ruse 2016", Ruse, "Svetkavitsa", Targovishte and " Spartak Pl», Pleven. A variational analysis was performed using the SPSS 21.0 software program. The methodological toolkit contains: Questionnaire for studying the perceived motivational climate - 2 (Perceived Motivational Climate in Sport Questionnaire - 2 (PMCSQ - 2)). The results of our research show that 13–14-year-old female basketball players from all four teams have a high mastery-oriented motivational climate, which is associated with a high intrinsic motivation to engage in the given sport. Female competitors feel pleasure and satisfaction from training, value and respect their coach and are convinced that they must work hard to achieve success. According to Domuschieva–Rogleva and Yancheva (2014), performance-oriented athletes are more likely to be motivated by factors such as high social status or high self-esteem. The value orientation of each coach is revealed by his work style, incentives and punishments, rewards and expectations, and in this way a corresponding goal orientation is built in the athletes. Conclusion: From the analysis, it was found that in all four investigated teams, in terms of mastery, the main determinant is effort/improvement, and according to performance, the variable is punishment for mistakes made. The results of the research on the mastery and performance of the 13-14-year-old basketball players from the Mizia area are of great value for practice, as it orients the coaches to a promising motivational environment, on the basis of which sports achievements and successes can be achieved.
