The purpose of this study is to qualitatively explore situations in which athletes perceived communication with their coach to be important and determine the effect of this communication on the athletes. Literature on the communication process in sports emphasizes the distinct characteristics of each sports and its setting. However, previous research has not studied various settings in detail, and archery is yet to be explored. The qualitative process included an in-depth, semi-structured interview with eight Olympic archers. Thematic analysis was used to interpret the data. Athletes perceived communication with coaches to be important during their performance, while dealing with psychological crises, and during their training. Our analysis suggests that, depending on the communicative actions, a coach may positively or negatively impact an athlete's self-awareness, self-confidence, anxiety, autonomy, and motivation. A noteworthy finding of this study is that archers perceive communication with coaches about the selection and management of equipment as important. This study emphasizes the critical role of an athlete's communication with the coach in various situations and discusses the theoretical and practical implications in the context of sports performance.
本研究旨在定性探讨运动员认为与教练沟通很重要的情况，并确定这种沟通对运动员的影响。关于体育交流过程的文献强调了每个体育项目及其环境的独特特征。然而，之前的研究并没有详细研究各种环境，而射箭运动仍有待探索。定性过程包括对八名奥运射箭运动员进行深入的半结构化访谈。采用主题分析来解释数据。运动员在比赛、应对心理危机和训练期间都认为与教练的沟通很重要。我们的分析表明，根据沟通行为，教练可能会对运动员的自我意识、自信、焦虑、自主性和动机产生积极或消极的影响。这项研究的一个显著发现是，射箭运动员认为与教练就装备的选择和管理进行沟通很重要。这项研究强调了运动员在各种情况下与教练进行沟通的关键作用，并在体育表现的背景下讨论了理论和实践意义。
