Abstract The objective of this cross-sectional study was to investigate whether total need satisfaction and three separate basic psychological needs (autonomy, competence and relatedness) predict life skills development in dual-career athletes according to sex, type of sport, type of higher education institution and financial support. Participants included 136 Brazilian university athletes (65 boys and 71 girls) aged 17–23 years. Data collection was conducted via Basic Needs Satisfaction in Sport Scale (BNSSS) and the Life Skills Scale for Sport (LSSS). Bayesian multilevel linear regression model found that total need satisfaction and three separate basic psychological needs (autonomy, competence and relatedness) influenced life skills (teamwork, social skills, leadership, goal setting and communication) and total life skills development in dual-career athletes. Total need satisfaction influenced leadership and total life skills. Competence and relatedness influenced goal seating, social skill, leadership and total life skills. Autonomy might not have a strong correlation with life skills development dimensions standardised scores and total life skills standardised score independent of sex, type of sport, type of higher education institution and financial support. Based on such findings, satisfaction of all three basic needs combined (total need satisfaction) and separate autonomy, competence and relatedness was positively associated with the development of life skills in dual-career athletes.

Abstract This cross-sectional study compared the indicative of Muscle dysmorphia in CrossFit athletes. Participants were 276 male and female CrossFit athletes with an average age of 28.56 ± 8.08 years. A questionnaire was used with questions about age, practice time and frequency of Crossfit practice, as well as the questionnaire of the Adonis complex. Data analysis was conducted through Kolmogorov-Smirnov and Mann-Whitney tests, and Spearman correlation (p<0.05). The adopted significance was p<0.05. The results showed that men obtained higher indicative of muscle dysmorphia in comparison to women as well as competitive athletes showed higher score than recreational athletes (p<0.05). It was found significant (p<0.05) and negative correlation of the indicative of muscle dysmorphia with training frequency (Rho=-0.51) among recreational athletes, and positive correlation (Rho=0.19) among competitors. It is concluded that being male and having a competitive profile are actors in the presence of Muscle dysmorphia in CrossFit athletes.

Abstract Introduction Low-level physical activity and sedentary behavior are factors that can impact the fear of falling and risk of falls in older adults. Objective This study aimed to determine whether the duration and frequency of physical activity and sedentary behavior predict the fear of falling and risk of sarcopenia in older people. Methods This was a cross-sectional study with 116 older individuals from southern and southeastern Brazil. A sociodemographic and health questionnaire, the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ – short version), the Falls Efficacy Scale – International (FES-I), and the SARC-f were used. Data were analyzed by bootstrapping procedures, Pearson's correlation, and regression analysis (p < 0.05). Results Walking days (β = -0.38; p < 0.001) and moderate activity days (β = -0.23; p < 0.001) showed a negative prediction of fear of falling. Walking days also had a significant and negative prediction of the risk of sarcopenia (β = -0.34; p < 0.001). Conclusion We conclude that weekly walking and the practice of moderate-intensity physical activity negatively predict the fear of falling in older adults. Weekly walking also negatively predicts the risk of having sarcopenia. Sedentary behavior was not a predictor of fear of falling and risk of sarcopenia.

Resumo Introdução A prática de atividade física e o compor-tamento sedentário são fatores que podem impactar o medo de cair e o risco de quedas em idosos. Objetivo Verificar se a duração e a frequência de atividade física e o comportamento sedentário predizem o medo de cair e o risco de sarcopenia de idosos. Métodos Trata-se de uma pesquisa transversal realizada com 116 idosos da região sul e sudeste do Brasil. Utilizou-se um questionário sociodemográfico e de saúde, o Questionário Internacional de Atividade Física (IPAQ – versão curta), a Falls Efficacy Scale – International (FES-I) e o SARC-f. Os dados foram analisados por procedimentos de bootstrapping, correlação de Pearson e análise de regressão (p<0,05). Resultados Os dias de caminhada (β= ‐0,38; p<0,001) e de atividades moderadas (β=‐0,23; p<0,001) apresentaram predição negativa sobre o medo de cair. Os dias de caminhada também apresentaram predição significativa e negativa sobre o risco de sarcopenia (β= ‐0,34; p<0,001). Conclusão A frequência semanal de caminhada e de prática de atividade física de intensidade moderada predizem negativamente o medo de cair dos idosos pesquisados. A frequência semanal de caminhada também prediz negativamente o risco de o idoso ter sarcopenia. O comportamento sedentário não se mostrou como um preditor do medo de cair e do risco de sarcopenia nos idosos.

Abstract This study examined how basic psychological needs satisfaction can predict youth participants’ life skills development according to gender and sport type. A sample of 461 Brazilian youth sport participants (325 boys and 136 girls) ranging between 10 and 17 years was included. Data collection was conducted through the Life Skills Scale for Sport and Basic Needs Satisfaction in Sport Scale. Overall, the three subscales of basic psychological needs satisfaction explained a significant amount of the variance in eight life skills (R2 range = .02 to .08 p < .05) and total life skills (R2 = .07; p < .001) in male athletes. Concerning female athletes, multiple regression analyses revealed significant variance only for teamwork (R2=.09; p<.01) and goal setting (R2= .06; p<.05). Regarding the type of sport, the model presented a significant amount of the variance in eight life skills (R2 range = .02 to .05 p < .05) and total life skills (R2 = .08; p < .001) in team sports. Lastly, in individual sports, multiple regression analyses revealed significant variance only on goal setting (R2= .04; p<.05). Findings showed that youth sport coaches could focus on youth participants’ basic psychological needs when trying to foster life skills development across sport contexts. Based on these findings, several suggestions for improving future research and practice in this area are presented.

Resumo Este estudo examinou como a satisfação das necessidades psicológicas básicas pode prever o desenvolvimento de competências para a vida dos jovens participantes de acordo com o género e o tipo de desporto. Foi incluída uma amostra de 461 atletas juvenis brasileiros (325 meninos e 136 meninas) com idades entre 10 e 17 anos. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio da Escala de Habilidades para a Vida no Esporte e da Escala de Satisfação de Necessidades Psicológicas Básicas no Esporte. No geral, as três subescalas de satisfação de necessidades psicológicas básicas explicaram uma quantidade significativa da variância em oito habilidades para a vida (faixa R2 = 0,02 a 0,08 p < 0,05) e habilidades para a vida totais (R2 = 0,07; p < 0,001) em atletas masculinos. Em relação às atletas femininas, as análises de regressão múltipla revelaram variância significativa apenas para trabalho em equipe (R2=0,09; p<0,01) e estabelecimento de metas (R2= 0,06; p<0,05). Em relação ao tipo de esporte, o modelo apresentou uma quantidade significativa de variância em oito habilidades para a vida (faixa R2 = 0,02 a 0,05 p < 0,05) e habilidades para a vida totais (R2 = 0,08; p < 0,001) em equipes. Esportes. Por último, nos desportos individuais, as análises de regressão múltipla revelaram variância significativa apenas no estabelecimento de metas (R2= 0,04; p<0,05). Os resultados mostraram que os treinadores desportivos juvenis podem concentrar-se nas necessidades psicológicas básicas dos jovens participantes ao tentarem promover o desenvolvimento de competências para a vida em contextos desportivos.

Resumen La relación entre entrenador y atleta ha sido identificada como un factor determinante para varios resultados positivos en el contexto deportivo. Por lo tanto, los objetivos del estudio fueron analizar la asociación entre la calidad de la relación en trenador-atleta (CAR) y la percepción de la cohesión del equipo de los atletas jóvenes. Participaron 301 atletas, de 15 a 17 años, que compitieron en los Juegos Escolares de Pernambuco, Brasil. Los instrumentos utilizados fueron el Cuestionario de Relación Entrenador-Atleta (CART-Q) y el Cuestionario de Ambiente Grupal (GEQ). El análisis de los datos se realizó a través del modelado de ecuaciones estructurales (p <.05). Los resultados mostraron que la calidad de la CAR mostró una asociación significativa (p <.05) con la cohesión del equipo, explicando el 25% de la varianza de la cohesión de la tarea y el 15% de la cohesión social. Específicamente, el efecto de CAR en la cohesión de tareas (β = 0.50) y social (β = 0.39) fue significativo (p <.05) y positivo. Se concluyó que la calidad de CAR es un factor clave para el compromiso del adolescente con el trabajo en equipo y las metas de este, así como para el desarrollo de relaciones interpersonales positivas.

Abstract The relationship between coach and athlete has been identified as a key factor for several positive outcomes in the sports context. Thus, the aims of this study were to analyze the association between the quality of the coach-athlete relation ship (CAR) and the perception of team cohesion of youth athletes. Participants were 301 athletes, aged 15 to 17 years, who participated in the School Games of Pernambuco, Brazil. The instruments used were the Coach-Athlete Relationship Questionnaire (CART-Q) and the Group Environment Questionnaire (GEQ). Data analysis was conducted through the Structural Equation Modeling (p< .05). The results showed that the quality of CAR showed a significant association (p<.05) with team cohesion, explaining 25% of the variance of task cohesion and 15% of social cohesion. Specifically, the effect of CAR on task (β = 0.50) and social (β = 0.39) cohesion was significant (p<.05) and positive. It was concluded that the quality of CAR is a key factor for the engagement of the adolescent with the teamwork and its goals as well as for the de velopment of positive interpersonal relationships.

Abstract The present study investigated the cohesion of teams and group conflict, based on the theory of compliance goals, in young Brazilian athletes participating in the final phase of the School Games in the state of Pernambuco. The participants were 413 young athletes, boys (n = 227) and girls (n = 186) aged between 14 and 17 years. Participants completed self-report questionnaires to assess the Youth Sport Environment Questionnaire (P-YSEQ), Group Conflict Questionnaire (P-GCQ) and Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire (TEOSQ). The data were analyzed using hierarchical and non-hierarchical cluster analysis, chi-square test, multiple regression and multivariate variance analysis (MANOVA). The results showed that task orientation made the largest positive contribution to both task (β= 0.50, p < 0.001) and social (β= 0.31, p < 0.05) cohesion. Ego orientation made the largest positive contribution to task conflict (β= 0.49, p < 0.001) and social conflict (β= 0.67, p < 0.001), whilst task orientation made a negative contribution (β= -0.34, p < 0.05) for social conflict. Compared to the high task and low ego cluster (Cluster 3) was compared with low ego and task (Cluster 2) and high task and low ego cluster (Cluster 1), there was a significant difference between groups in task cohesion (p = 0.001), task conflict (p =0.003) and social conflict (p = 0.001). It is concluded that task orientation seems to be a positive predictor of team cohesion, while ego orientation might predict positively group conflict and negatively task cohesion.

Resumen La inteligencia emocional (IE) es una habilidad psicológica que ayuda a los atletas a controlar las emociones y optimizar el rendimiento deportivo. El presente estudio investigó las propiedades psicométricas de la Prueba de Inteligencia Emocional de Autoinforme (SSEIT) en 508 atletas jóvenes y adultos brasileños (edad media 18.55 ± 4.68 años). El análisis de los datos se realizó a través del análisis factorial exploratorio (EFA) y confirmatorio (CFA), alfa de Cronbach, fiabilidad compuesta y correlación de Pearson (p <.05). EFA reveló el modelo de un factor con 26 artículos con el mejor ajuste. CFA confirmó el modelo de un factor con 26 ítems con el mejor ajuste mayor. No se encontró evidencia de invariancia, lo que sugiere que el SSEIT debe usarse con precaución al comparar grupos de genero y edad. La validez externa se encontró en la correlación de la IE y la ansiedad cognitiva y la autoconfianza. Se concluye que la versión brasileña de SSEIT para el contexto deportivo presentó propiedades psicométricas aceptables, sin embargo, mostró limitaciones que deberían explorarse en el futuro.

Abstract Emotional intelligence (EI) is a psychological skill that aids athletes in the control of emotions and optimization of sports performance. The present study investigated the psychometric properties of the Self-Report Emotional Intelligence Test (SSEIT) in 508 Brazilian youth and adult athletes (mean age 18.55±4.68 years). Data analysis was conducted through Exploratory (EFA) and Confirmatory (CFA) Factor Analysis, Cronbach's alpha, composite reliability and Pearson's Correlation (p<0.05). EFA revealed the one-factor model with 26 items with the best adjustment. CFA confirmed the one-factor model with 26 items with best greater fit. No evidence of invariance was found, suggesting that the SSEIT must be used with caution when comparing gender and age groups. The external validity was found in the correlation of EI and cognitive anxiety and self-confidence. It is concluded that the Brazilian version of SSEIT for the sports context presented acceptable psychometric properties, however, showed limitations that should be explored in the future.

Resumo Introdução o estado nutricional e seus fatores associados assume uma importante função na saúde dos idosos. Objetivo Identificar os fatores associados ao estado nutricional dos idosos da atenção primária à saúde da cidade de Maringá, Paraná. Método Estudo transversal, do qual fizeram parte 654 idosos usuários das Unidades Básicas de Saúde. Como instrumentos foram utilizados um questionário sociodemográfico, o Mini Nutritional Assessment, o Questionário Internacional de Atividade Física. A análise de dados foi conduzida por meio dos testes de Kolmogorov-Smirnov, “U” de Mann-Whitney, qui-quadrado e regressão logística binária (p < 0,05). Resultados Os resultados evidenciaram maior proporção de idosos com percepção de saúde boa, que tomam menos medicamentos, não tiveram quedas e com nível muito ativo/ativo com o estado nutricional normal. Verificou-se que idosos com estado nutricional normal apresentaram maior circunferência de panturrilha (p = 0,01). Destaca-se que idosos com melhor percepção de saúde, maior nível de atividade física e circunferência de panturrilha, nível mais alto de escolaridade e renda mensal de 2,1 a 3 salários mínimos têm mais chances de apresentar estado nutricional normal. Conclusão Concluiu-se que o estado nutricional normal em idosos está associado ao maior nível de escolaridade, maior poder aquisitivo, melhor percepção de saúde e à prática regular de atividade física.

Abstract Background nutritional status and its associated factors play an important role in the health of the elderly. Objective To identify the factors associated with the nutritional status of the elderly in primary health care at the city of Maringá, Paraná. Method A cross-sectional study was carried out with 654 Basic Health Units’ elderly patients. The research instruments included a sociodemographic questionnaire, the Mini Nutritional Assessment, and the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Data analysis was performed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov, Mann-Whitney U, Chi-square and Binary Logistic Regression tests (p <0.05). Results The results showed a higher proportion of elderly patients with good health perception, who took less medication, had no falls, and had a high/average activity level with normal nutritional status. It was verified that the elderly with normal nutritional status presented a higher calf circumference (p = 0.01). It should be emphasized that older people with better health perception, higher level of physical activity and calf circumference, higher level of education and monthly income of 2.1 to 3 minimum wages are more likely to present normal nutritional status. Conclusion It was concluded that a normal nutritional status in the elderly population is associated with a higher educational level, greater purchasing power, better health perception and regular practice of physical activity.

Resumo Introdução a interação complexa entre fatores sociais, psicológicos e biológicos, que resultam na depressão, poderá acelerar a diminuição da capacidade funcional e, consequentemente, a qualidade de vida do idoso. Objetivo Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo investigar os fatores associados aos indicativos de sintomas depressivos de idosos da atenção básica à saúde de um município do noroeste paranaense. Método Estudo epidemiológico, de corte transversal e base populacional realizado em 12 Unidades Básicas de Saúde (UBS), com 654 homens e mulheres idosos. Foi utilizado um instrumento para caracterização do perfil sociodemográfico dos participantes, assim como o instrumento Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), versão curta. Os dados foram analisados pelo teste de Qui-quadrado e da Regressão de Poisson (p<0,05). Resultados Os resultados evidenciaram que parece existir uma associação dos idosos com boa percepção de saúde (p=0,001), que não ingerem medicamentos (p=0,001), que não sofreram quedas nos últimos seis meses (p=0,011) e que não apresentaram comorbidades (p=0,001), com a ausência de sintomas depressivos. Os idosos com autopercepção de saúde regular (RP = 1,733; 95%IC = 1280-2,347) e ruim (RP = 2,222; 95%IC = 1,525-3,237) demonstraram maior razão de prevalência de presença de indicativo de depressão. Conclusão Conclui-se que os idosos com pior autopercepção de saúde demonstraram maior razão de prevalência de apresentar indicativos de depressão.

Abstract Background the complex interaction between social, psychological and biological factors, which result in depression, may accelerate the decrease in functional capacity and, consequently, the quality of life of the older adults. Objective This research aimed to investigate the factors associated with suggestive symptoms of depression in older adults of primary health care in a municipality in northwest Paraná. Method Epidemiological, cross-sectional and population-based study was carried out in 12 basic health units, with 654 older adult men and women. The Geriatric Depression Scale (GDS), short version, as well an instrument to characterize the participants sociodemographic profile. Data were analyzed using Chi-square test and Poisson regression (p <0.05). Results Results showed that there seems to be an association of the older adult with good health perception (p = 0.001), when they did not take medication (p = 0.001), have not suffered falls in the last six months (p = 0.011) and have not presented comorbidities (p = 0.001) in the absence of depressive symptoms. Older adult with self-perceived regular health (PR = 1.733; 95% CI = 1280-2.347) and poor health (PR = 2.222; 95% CI = 1.525-3.237) showed a higher prevalence ratio for the presence of depression. Conclusion Older adult with worse self-perceived health showed a higher prevalence ratio of presenting suggestive symptoms of depression.

Abstract Aims: The present study investigated the quality of coach-athlete relationship (CAR) and coping as associated factors stress, anxiety, burnout, and depression symptoms of soccer players in the transition to professional. Methods: Twenty-three athletes from four teams of the 2019 under-20 Bahia State Championship participated in the study. The instruments used were the Coach-Athlete Relationship Questionnaire, the Coping Strategic Athletic Inventory, the Daily Analysis of Life Demands in Athletes, the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2R, the Burnout Questionnaire for Athletes, and the Major Depression Inventory. Data analysis was conducted using Generalized Estimation Equations, Pearson’s Correlation, and Linear Multiple Regression (p < 0.05). Results: Our findings show that from the beginning to the end of the season, CAR and coping strategies were predictors of psychic occurrences. For CAR, the symptoms of anxiety associated with self-confidence and stress symptoms were predicted by Proximity and Complementarity, respectively. As for coping strategies, only the symptoms of stress were predicted by the dimension of facing adversity. Conclusion: From the beginning to the end of the season, the magnitude of the predicting factors over some psychopathologies is enhanced in youth soccer players going through a career transition stage.

Resumo A prática de esportes durante a juventude tem sido considerada uma das principais ferramentas para o desenvolvimento de habilidades para a vida. Assim, esse estudo transversal investigou a associação entre o desenvolvimento de habilidades para vida e estratégias de coping em 134 jovens atletas de ambos os sexos do estado de Pernambuco, Brasil. Os instrumentos utilizados foram a Escala de Habilidades para a Vida Esportiva e Coping Skills Inventory-28 (ACSI-28BR). A análise dos dados foi realizada por meio da correlação de Pearson e Regressão Múltipla (p<0,05). Os resultados mostraram correlação significativa (p<0,05) e positiva entre as subescalas de habilidades para a vida e as estratégias de coping. Análises de regressão múltipla encontradas que o desenvolvimento total de habilidades para a vida (uma pontuação somativa de todas as oito pontuações de habilidades para a vida) foi positivamente relacionado as habilidades de coping- fornecendo suporte para o efeito de “empilhamento”. Concluiu-se que uma gama de desenvolvimento de habilidades para vida está positivamente associada às estratégias de coping dos jovens atletas, possivelmente contribuindo para que esses jovens se mostrem mais confiantes e motivados a conseguirem melhores desempenhos nos treinos e competições.

Abstract Playing sports during youth has been considered one of the main tools for the development of life skills. Thus, this cross-sectional study investigated the association between the development of life skills and coping strategies in 134 young athletes of both sexes in the state of Pernambuco, Brazil. The instruments used were the Sports Life Skills Scale and Coping Skills Inventory-28 (ACSI-28BR). Data analysis was performed using Pearson's correlation and Multiple Regression (p<0.05). The results showed a significant (p<0.05) and positive correlation between the life skills subscales and coping strategies. Multiple regression analyses found that total life skills development (a summative score of all eight life skills scores) was positively related to coping skills–providing support for the “pile-up” effect. It was concluded that a range of life skills development is positively associated with the coping strategies of young athletes, possibly helping these young people to show more confidence and motivation to achieve better performances in training and competitions.
