“…In this context, Amorose and Anderson-Butcher (2007) stated that engaging mainly for the learning/enjoyment inherent in the task implied intrinsic motivation and it reflected the possession of a more self-determined motivational orientation. Amorose et al (2016) revealed that perceptions of autonomy support from coaches, fathers and mothers each were related to athletes' selfdetermined motivation. This finding reveals that the more athletes perceive autonomy, the more they show self-determined motivation.…”

“…Moreover, in sport contexts, determining motivational features of athletes is one of the research areas in which there have been various studies (e.g. Amorose, Anderson-Butcher, Newman, Fraina, & Iachini 2016;Atkins, Johnson, Force & Petrie, 2015;Hein & Jõesaar, 2015;Stenling, Lindwall, & Hassmén, 2015). Studies on motivation employ different perspectives and theories one of which is the Self-Determination Theory (SDT).…”

There are many determinants of sports motivation such as athletes’ personal characteristics, coaches, peers, parents and the other environmental factors. In this research, the aim was to analyse whether there was a relationship between perceived parent-initiated motivational climate and self-determined motivation of karate athletes. Karate athletes (N=325) participated in the research and completed the adolescent version of the Sport Motivation Scale and Parent-Initiated Motivational Climate Questionnaire. Multiple regression analyses showed that the athletes’ self-determined motivation significantly correlated with learning and enjoyment climate, worry-conducive climate and success-without-effort climate perceived both in father and mother. Besides, regression analysis showed that perceived family climate significantly contributed to selfdetermined motivation. Linear combination of father learning and enjoyment climate (β=.21), father successwithout effort climate (β=-.17), and mother success-without-effort climate (β=-.14) significantly contributed to self-determined motivation (F(3,321)=18.88, R2=.15, p<.001). In conclusion, the results indicated that athletes’ perception of parent-initiated motivational climate was important for their self-determined motivation. The findings were evaluated and some implications for parents were proposed.

“…The presence and involvement of others in the environment also alters the impact parental behaviors have on children [e.g., 18,19,20,21]. For instance, the impact of parents" autonomy support on children"s motivation is influenced by the autonomy support provided by children"s peers and coaches [18,22]. Similarly, the motivational climate created by parents, coaches, and peers is likely to have a greater impact on athletes" involvement in poor sport behaviors than parent-created climates alone [23,24].…”

This paper provides a brief summary and commentary on the growing literature on parenting in sport, with a particular emphasis on literature from the last 2-3 years. Following a brief introduction overviewing the topic area, we firstly focus on the influence of parental involvement on children. Specifically, we examine the range of factors that influence children's perceptions of parental involvement and the consequences of different behaviors. Next we discuss the factors influencing parental involvement, such as the challenges and stressors associated with parenting children in sport and the culture within different sports. Finally, our review focuses upon the strategies developed by parents to facilitate their involvement in their children's sport, as well as the few papers focused upon parent education and support. We conclude by examining the need for further research and examination of support strategies for parents.

“…Finally, it would be interesting to examine the relationships between fluctuations in reinforcing factors and specific influences from parents, coaches and peers over time. Such relationships has already been tested in some studies [45][46][47]. Despite promising results, it has not been tested in an ecological model designed, and was not designed to verify the possible contribution of other variables.…”

Adolescent hockey players’ predispositions to adopt sport and exercise behaviours: An ecological perspective

2020

Organized sport yields many cognitive, social and physical benefits and is one of the most popular types of physical activity for children and adolescents. Despite the benefits of sports participation, a substantial proportion of adolescents fail to meet Canadian guidelines regarding physical activity. In this regard, it is relevant to understand the mechanisms underlying the adoption of various active behaviours. This study aims to identify the predisposing, enabling and reinforcing factors that potentially influence 4 categories of active behaviours using the Youth Physical Activity Promotion model (YPAP). Data was drawn from 416 male adolescent hockey players (M age = 15.4; SD = 2) who completed a pre-validated questionnaire. Structural equation modeling and interaction analyses were performed to explain the contribution of each determinant. Findings reveal that there are different behavioural patterns based on the type of activity. The interaction between attitudes and environmental factors was a key predictor for each type of behaviour. Perceived competence was associated with more recreational activities, whereas the support of parents and coaches determined involvement in ice hockey. This study refined our understanding of physical activity participation among adolescents already involved in organized sports and emphasized the importance of considering multiple factors surrounding their environment. Several practical recommendations are made to improve young athletes' predisposition to practice physical activity in an organized sports setting.
