The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationships between a controlling interpersonal style, psychological need thwarting and burnout in adolescent soccer players and to test a structural equation model to analyze whether (a) a controlling interpersonal style is a predictor of psychological need thwarting and whether (b) psychological need thwarting is a predictor of burnout. A total of 103 male soccer players between the ages of 12 and 17 participated in the research ( 14.91; 5.56). The Controlling Coach Behaviors Scale, the Psychological Need Thwarting Scale, and the Athlete Burnout Questionnaire were used to evaluate the variables under study. The analyses revealed significant relationships between a controlling interpersonal style, psychological need thwarting and burnout. Furthermore, the proposed structural equations model, using the partial least squares (PLS) method, showed that a controlling style is a positive predictor of basic psychological need thwarting and that the latter is a predictor of burnout, as well as revealing an indirect relationship between a controlling style and burnout. This indirect effect of the controlling style variable on burnout can be enhanced (or attenuated) by the basic psychological need thwarting variable, which acts as a modulator.
本文旨在分析控制型人际风格、心理需求受挫与青少年足球运动员倦怠之间的关系，并通过结构方程模型验证控制型人际风格是否（a）能够预测心理需求受挫，以及心理需求受挫是否（b）能够预测倦怠。共有 103 名年龄在 12 至 17 岁的男性足球运动员参与了此项研究（14.91 岁；5.56 岁）。采用控制型教练行为量表、心理需求受挫量表和运动员倦怠问卷来评估研究中的变量。分析结果显示，控制型人际风格、心理需求受挫与倦怠之间存在显著关系。此外，采用偏最小二乘法（PLS）的提出的结构方程模型表明，控制型风格是基本心理需求受挫的正向预测因子，而后者又是倦怠的预测因子，同时揭示了控制型风格与倦怠之间的间接关系。控制型风格变量对倦怠的间接影响可以通过基本心理需求受挫变量得到增强（或减弱），后者作为调节变量发挥作用。
