Sažetak
The purpose of this study was to examine the selected psychometric properties of the Croatian version of Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire in order to extend the construct validation of this sport motivation instrument. The present study utilized a quasi-confirmatory factor analytic approach to evaluate the theoretical two-factor structure of the original TEOSQ scores and to examine the assumption of structure invariance across two different sports. 388 young male Croatian athletes from 17 football and 17 handball teams participated in this study. The results show that the Croatian version of TEOSQ confirmed the original two-factor solution (task, ego). Cronbach’s alpha coefficients for both dimensions indicated adequate reliability. The results are discussed with regard to accurate assessment of motivational constructs and a need for a valid and reliable instrument that can be used within the national sport-specific environment.
