Comparação da Autoestima e da Autoeficácia em Diferentes Modalidades de Treinamento Físico.

The modalities of physical training, in principle, are practiced according to objectives of aesthetics, health, leisure, social integration and others. The choice may be related to psychological and emotional aspects. The objective was to analyze the profile of training practitioners regarding self-esteem and self-efficacy, and to check if there is a relationship with the modality. It was carried out a cross-sectional, descriptive and quantitative study in which participated individuals of both genders between 20 and 45 years old, practitioners of running, weight training, functional training or CrossFit. Questionnaires about the practitioner's profile, Subjective Perception of Effort (SPE; Borg Scale), Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale and General Self-Efficiency Scale were answered. The functional training and CrossFit showed higher values for PSE (15.32±1.62 and 15.62±2.33) and self-efficacy (68.91±5.76 and 67.95±4.66). For self-esteem, the highest values were for functional training (25.32±1.67) and weight training (25.29±2.43), but there were no statistically significant differences. It was concluded that self-esteem and self-efficacy scores were considered high compared to other populations, but without differences between modalities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
