FERREIRA, Sandro; FERNANDES, Hélder M. e RAPOSO, José Vasconcelos. Relatioships between physical aptitude perception, body mass index and true aptitude in young basketball players. Motri. [online]. 2007, vol.3, n.3, pp.57-72. ISSN 1646-107X.
The purposes of this study were: (i) explore the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI) and Perceived Physical Competence (PPC), and/or Effective Basketball Competence (ECB); (ii) understand the relationship between PPC and ECB; and, (iii) establish the sources of information that the young use to define the PPC. A sample of 156 physical education students, with ages ranging from 12 to 18 years (M=14.36; SD=1.76), completed the perception of physical competence subscale (PPCS) and the physical competence sources subscale (PCSS). They also realized a protocol to measure effective competence in Basketball. The main results revealed: (i) significant differences between boys and girls, while comparing BMI, with higher mean scores for boys; (ii) higher mean scores of PPC and BEC for boys; (iii) significant differences for the following constructs of the PCSS: pre-competition anxiety and sport attraction; and, (iv) significant differences between different groups of ages, for parents evaluation factor.
