The majority of research on the coach-athlete relationship has been explored from the perspective of able-bodied athletes. The purpose of this study was to explore wheelchair basketball athletes' perceptions of the coach-athlete relationship. Timelining and semistructured interviews were conducted with six wheelchair basketball athletes, and data were analyzed using a reflexive thematic analysis. Athletes highlighted the important role that parasport coaches played in fostering an enjoyable wheelchair basketball environment and valued coaches who displayed expertise regarding their athletes' equipment and had personal parasport athletic experiences. Additionally, athletes identified personal preferences, including coaches who addressed sex differences and maintained professional relationships at the national level as contributing factors to the coach-athlete relationship. The current results benefit both parasport coaches and athletes by providing a portrayal of coaching behaviors, characteristics, and expertise that not only influence the parasport coach-athlete dyad but also affect the well-being and athletic development of parasport athletes.
大多数关于教练与运动员关系的研究都是从健全运动员的角度进行探讨的。本研究的目的是探索轮椅篮球运动员对教练与运动员关系的看法。对六名轮椅篮球运动员进行了时间线和半结构化访谈，并使用反思性主题分析对数据进行了分析。运动员强调了残疾人体育教练在营造愉快的轮椅篮球环境中所起的重要作用，并重视那些在运动员装备方面表现出专业知识且有个人残疾人体育运动经历的教练。此外，运动员还确定了个人偏好，包括那些关注性别差异并在国家层面保持专业关系的教练，这些都是影响教练与运动员关系的因素。目前的研究结果通过描绘教练行为、特征和专业知识，不仅有利于残疾人体育教练和运动员，这些因素不仅影响残疾人体育教练与运动员的二元关系，还会影响残疾人体育运动员的幸福感和运动发展。
