大專運動員運動熱情與心理堅韌性的關係：正向情緒的中介效果

Abstract

本研究目的為探討運動員運動熱情與心理堅韌性的關係，並進一檢驗正向情緒的中介效果，希望藉此更加瞭解熱情與正向情緒對於心理堅韌性所扮演的角色。本研究參與者招募至大專院校甲組運動員共 244 名（男生 165 名，女生 79 名），平均年齡 20.6 ± 1.5歲，經參與者同意後，請參與者填寫一份問卷，此問卷主要是測量運動中的熱情、正向情緒以及心理堅韌性量表。在研究結果方面，經皮爾森積差相關檢驗與淨相關檢驗皆發現，調和式熱情、強迫式熱情皆與心理堅韌性有顯著的正相關，其中相較於強迫式熱情，調和式熱情相關程度較高。在正向情緒的中介效果檢驗方面，經路徑分析發現，調和式熱情與強迫式熱情皆會透過正向情緒正向預測心理堅韌性，亦即正向情緒在二元熱情與心理堅韌性之間都扮演著中介的角色，此外，調和式熱情能直接正向預測心理堅韌性。本研究針對結果提出討論、未來研究方向以及實際運用的建議。The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship of collegiate athlete’s passion and mental toughness. In addition, the mediating effect of positive emotion on the relationship between passion and mental toughness was further examined. The participants were 244 (165 males and 79 females) collegiate athletes recruited from four universities in Northern part of Taiwan. Average age was in 20.6 ± 1.5 years. After received the informed consent from the participants, they were asked to complete a questionnaire which assessed their passion, positive emotion, and mental toughness in sport. The results of the Pearson correlation and partial correlation indicated that both harmonious passion and obsessive passion were positively correlated with mental toughness. The correlation between harmonious passion and mental toughness was higher then the correlation between obsessive passion and mental toughness. Regarding to the mediating effect of positive emotion on the relationship between passion and mental toughness, the results indicated that both harmonious passion and obsessive passion could predict positive emotion and then predicted mental toughness. That is, the relationship between passion and mental toughness was mediated by positive emotion. The implication of the results and future directions were discussed.
