IMPULSIVENESS/VENTURESOMENESS AND COPING STRESS STRATEGIES IN HANDBALL

Abstract

Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je ispitati relacije između osobina impulzivnosti i avanturizma, te načina na koji se rukometaši i rukometašice suočavaju sa stresnim situacijama. Ispitivanje je provedeno na uzorku od 73 rukometaša i 77 rukometašica, u dobi od 14 do 35 godina (M=17.68, sd=3.87; min.=14,max.=35). U ispitivanju je korišten upitnik o sociodemografskim karakteristikama, Eysenckov Upitnik impulzivnosti (EPQ – IVE) i Upitnik suočavanja sa stresnim situacijama autora Endlera i Parkera (CISS). Dobiveni rezultati su pokazali statistički značajne razlike u osobinama ličnosti s obzirom na spol, pri čemu su rukometašice postizale značajno više rezultate na skali impulzivnosti. Također je dobivena značajna razlika u načinima suočavanja sa stresom. Rukometašice više od rukometaša odabiru stil usmjeren na emocije, izbjegavanje i socijalnu diverziju. Testiranjem značajnosti razlika u ispitivanim varijablama s obzirom na dužinu staža u klubu za koji rukometaši/-ce igraju, nisu nađene razlike u osobinama ličnosti. Međutim, dobivena je značajna razlika u načinu suočavanja, pri čemu rukometaši/-ce s duljim rukometnim stažom češće odabiru izbjegavanje, socijalnu diverziju i stil usmjerenost na problem kao stil suočavanja sa stresnom situacijom.The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between personality traits impulsiveness, venturesomeness and coping stress strategies in male and female handball players. Examination was conducted on a sample of 73 male and 77 female handball players, 14-35 years old (M = 17.68, SD = 3.87, min. = 14, max. = 35). Sociodemographic questionnaire, Eysenck\u27s Impulsiveness Questionnaire (EPQ - IVE) and Coping Inventory for Stressful Situations by Endler and Parker (CISS) were applied. Results showed statistically significant differences in personality traits with respect to gender. Female handball players attained significantly higher scores on scales of impulsivity. Statistical analysis also showed significant differences in coping stress strategies. Female more than male handball players chose styles focused on emotions, avoidance and social diversion. However, there is no differences between personality traits and sports experience. But there are statistically significant differences between experience and coping styles. Players with more handball experience chose avoidance, social diversion and problem oriented coping styles
