|a The first purpose of the present study was to determine differences in psychological profiles (i.e., perfectionism, self-concept, and psychological well-being) of athletes coming from high and low family involvement. Second, was to determine any differences in psychological profiles of athletes representing different sports (aesthetic and non-aesthetic). Third, was to determine any gender differences in psychological profiles of athletes. Lastly, was to determine whether there are interaction effects of the family involvement, sport type, and gender on psychological profiles of athletes. Male and female (n = 155) collegiate varsity athletes from golf (n = 7), tennis (n = 21), swimming (n = 35), wrestling (n = 34), gymnastics (n = 34), diving (n = 14), bowling (n = 4), and track & field (n = 6) from NCAA Division I and Division II programs participated in this study. All participants were first year freshman athletes on the most current (2006-2007) roster from their college or university. They completed the Perfectionism Inventory (PI), the Physical Self-Perception Profile (PSPP), and the Ryff Psychological Well-Being Scale (PWB). The three separate three-way factorial MANOVA revealed significant findings on the dimensions of perfectionism (i.e., high standards for others, organization, planfulness, and striving for excellence), specifically for athletes who come from fathers who are highly involved in their sport activity. The analysis also showed that athletes in aesthetic sports were more influenced towards negative perfectionism and had lower self-concept and lower psychological well-being then compared to athletes in non-aesthetic sports. Additionally, significant gender differences were also observed on perfectionism, particularly for males who had higher scores on concerns over mistakes, and females who had higher scores on organization and planfulness. Lastly, findings showed significant interactions between gender and sport type on perfectionism and psychological well- being, gender and mother involvement on psychological well-being, gender and father involvement on perfectionism and psychological well-being, sport type and mother involvement on perfectionism, and sport type and mother and father involvement on perfectionism. |
