- Coach-athletes communication: data from the communication behaviors evaluation systemPublication . Gomes, A. Rui; Almeida, Albino; Resende, Rui; Morais, CatarinaEste estudo analisa a comunicação entre treinadores e atletas, utilizando o Sistema de Avaliação de Comportamentos de Comunicação (SACC). Este sistema proporciona uma perspetiva ampla das interações entre treinadores e atletas, considerando a perspetiva de ambos e de observadores. Os comportamentos foram avaliados através do Questionário de Comportamentos Comunicacionais (QCC), versão para treinador, atletas e observador. O estudo incluiu 64 atletas de futsal masculino, com idades entre 13 e 43 anos (M = 18.98, DP = 7.05) e os seus treinadores, do sexo masculino, com idades entre 29 e 43 anos (M = 35.75, DP = 5.26). Os resultados revelaram seis aspetos: (1) o CBQ assumiu uma estrutura de dois fatores (comportamentos positivos e negativos), mas um item foi suprimido; (2) os treinadores assumiram comportamentos positivos com mais frequência do que comportamentos negativos; (3) os comportamentos espontâneos positivos foram ligeiramente mais frequentes do que os comportamentos reativos positivos; (4) os treinadores avaliaram-se como apresentando mais comportamentos reativos negativos do que comportamentos espontâneos negativos; (5) feedback positivo e incentivo após insucesso foram os comportamentos positivos mais frequentes; (6) feedback negativo foi o comportamento negativo mais frequente. O SACC assumiu-se como uma ferramenta útil para avaliar a comunicação entre treinadores e atletas.
- Leadership efficacy in youth football: athletes' and coaches’ perspectivePublication . Gomes, A. Rui; Gonçalves, Alexandre; Morais, Catarina; Simães, Clara; Resende, RuiAccording to the Leadership Efficacy Model, leadership efficacy depends on leaders’ tendency to make linear relationships between leadership philosophy, practice, and criteria (i.e., congruence of leadership cycles). Moreover, efficacy increases if coaches make these linear relationships by using the optimal leadership profile and by considering the antecedent factors of leadership (characteristics of the leader, team members, and organizational conditions; i.e., favorability of conditions for leadership). This study compared the perceptions of athletes and their coaches regarding leadership cycles, and tested the moderator role of optimal leadership profile and leadership favorability in the relationship between leadership cycles and leadership efficacy. This study included 92 football athletes (ages less than 17 and 19 years) and respective coaches (n = 5). The evaluation protocol included measures of leadership cycles, leadership styles, leadership favorability, and sport performance perception. Athletes and coaches agreed on coaches’ need to increase their practice and criteria, but athletes also considered that coaches should better clarify their philosophy. Regression analyses confirmed that leadership congruency predicts higher perceptions of team performance in athletes. Moreover, optimal leadership profile and higher leadership favorability were associated with higher team and individual performance. However, these two factors did not moderate the relationship between leadership congruency and efficacy.

- Stress, autoconfiança e expectativas de rendimento em atletas de formação de futebol: o papel mediador da avaliação cognitivaPublication . Resende, Rui; Morais, Catarina; Gomes, A. Rui; Simães, ClaraA participação no desporto juvenil, e em particular na competição, nem sempre tem impacto positivo nos atletas. Sakar e Fletcher (2014) sumarizaram as principais fontes de stress na competição juvenil: receio de insucesso desportivo, de cometer erros, e de sofrer lesões, má condição desportiva, expectativas sociais, os adversários. No entanto, o modo como os atletas se sentem face ao desporto não depende apenas do potencial stress do desporto, mas também do modo como o stress é avaliado pelos atletas. Assim, este estudo analisou o papel mediador da avaliação cognitiva na relação entre o stress competitivo, a autoconfiança desportiva e as expectativas de rendimento desportivo.
- The influence of set speed on the attack efficacy of the outside hitter in elite male volleyballPublication . Lima, Ricardo Franco; Morais, Catarina; Arezes, Gonçalo; Resende, RuiThe purpose of this study was twofold: a) to analyze if the set speed can predict the attack efficacy of the outside hitter; and b) if the team level is a predictor of set speed and attack efficacy. A total of 32 games of elite competitions were observed, and 260 attack actions performed by the outside hitters from six national teams were analyzed throughout the Kinovea Software. Independent- sample t-tests were conducted and, when differences between groups were significant (i.e., p < .050), those variables were included in the model as covariates. Additionally, to analyze the predictor variables of efficacy, logistic binary regression and linear regression were used. Results showed that the better the reception, the higher the set speed; however, neither the set speed nor the team level predict the attack efficacy. Thus, it can be concluded that the individual performance of the outside hitter should be developed instead the set speed. Notwithstanding, to increase the speed of the game, teams should improve the receptor efficacy. It is important for teams to find a set speed that balances the benefit of a faster set with the need for control and accuracy from the outside hitter.
