Several authors emphasize the close relationship between self-esteem and athletic performance; such a relationship may raise the following question: by saying "strong" or "without any physical condition", is it a fair presentation of the individual's abilities or he reveals the most fundamental aspects of his personality, such as emotional temperament?
To evaluate self-esteem, physical self and temperamental profile in a group of sportsmen, and to look for a relationship between these variables and athletic performance.
We performed a cross-sectional, descriptive and analytic study in 80 young handball players of the "senior" category. We assessed self-esteem using the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale, physical self-using the Physical Self-Inventory (PSI), and temperamental profile using the Temperament Evaluation of Memphis, Paris and San Diego Auto-questionnaire (TEMPS-A). Athletic performance was evaluated by the team coach by means of a score ranging from 1 to 10.
High self-esteem was correlated to female gender (p=0.03), to an early start of physical activity (p<0.01), and certain dimensions of the physical self: perceived physical value (p=0.02), appearance (p<0.01), and the global score (p=0.01). Athletic performance was correlated to high self-esteem (p<0.01) and to two dimensions of the physical self: the global score (p=0.01) and the perceived physical value (p<0.01). Hyperthymic temperament was associated with high self-esteem (p=0.001). Good athletic performance was associated with hyperthymic (p<0.01) and cyclothymic (p<0.01) temperament. Low athletic performance was associated with depressive (p=0.04) and irritable (p=0.01) temperament.
Our study shows the close relationship between selfesteem, temperamental profile and athletic performance. We suggest that the intervention of a psychiatrist or a psychologist aimed at improving sportsmen's' self-esteem might help to achieve better athletic performance. In this intervention, the individual temperamental profile should be taken into account.
几位作者强调自尊与运动表现之间的密切关系；这种关系可能会引发以下问题：说“强壮”或“没有任何身体状况”，这是对个人能力的公正描述，还是揭示了其人格最基本的方面，比如情绪气质？
评估一组运动员的自尊、身体自我和气质特征，并寻找这些变量与运动表现之间的关系。
我们对80名“高级”组的年轻手球运动员进行了一项横断面、描述性和分析性研究。我们使用罗森伯格自尊量表评估自尊，使用身体自我量表（PSI）评估身体自我，使用孟菲斯、巴黎和圣地亚哥自动问卷气质评估量表（TEMPS-A）评估气质特征。团队教练通过1至10分的评分来评估运动表现。
高自尊与女性性别相关（p=0.03），与较早开始体育活动相关（p<0.01），还与身体自我的某些维度相关：感知身体价值（p=0.02）、外貌（p<0.01）和总体得分（p=0.01）。运动表现与高自尊相关（p<0.01），还与身体自我的两个维度相关：总体得分（p=0.01）和感知身体价值（p<0.01）。轻躁狂气质与高自尊相关（p=0.001）。良好的运动表现与轻躁狂（p<0.01）和环性气质（p<0.01）相关。低运动表现与抑郁（p=0.04）和易怒（p=0.01）气质相关。
我们的研究表明自尊、气质特征与运动表现之间存在密切关系。我们建议精神科医生或心理学家进行旨在提高运动员自尊的干预，这可能有助于取得更好的运动表现。在这种干预中，应考虑个体的气质特征。
