Sažetak
An attempt was made to determine the influence of the presonality structure of players on their performance in football. The subjects of the study were 51 students of the Faculty of Physical Education in Zagreb whose football skill was at the level of the local league.
On the basis of regression coefficients for the estimation of personality factors, determined in the investigation of Momirovic et al., 1982, the predictive set of variables included the results of the subjects with regard to the following factors:
- efficacy of the system for regulation and control of defensive reactions
- efficacy of the system for regulation and control of attack reactions
- efficacy of the system for regulation and control of organic functions
- efficacy of the system of homeostatic regulation
- efficacy of the system for integration of regulatory functions
- efficacy of the system for regulation of activity.
The criterial variables of performance in football were determined in two ways.
The performance variables of the first criterial set were defined as the factor values of the subjects tested in the following situational motoric abilities (according to the results of the confirmative factor anylsis pf 20 tests of situational motoric abilities by Gabrijelic. Jerkovic, Aubrecht and Elsner, 1982.):
- precision of the hitting a target (PRECRC)
- manipulation with the ball (BARATL)
- speed of dribbling (BRZVOD)
- ball-kicking power (SNAUDL)
- speed of non-linear running (BKRIVT).
The performance variables of the second criterial set were defined as the efficacy of the subjects in various elements of the game. Each individual element was evaluated separately on a scale of 1-5 by component experts who observed each subject over a series of matches. The following elements were evaluated:
- efficacy of technique (TECHNIK)
- efficacy in the phase of attack (NAPAD)
- efficacy in the phase of defence (OBRANA)
- creativity (STVARA)
- responsibility (ODGOVO)
- commitment (ANGAZI)
- behaviour during the game (PONASA)
- general performance (OPCOCJ).
The correlation between player personality structure and results for situational motoric factors and between personality and evaluations of performance was determined by a quasicanonical correlation analysis(Momirović, Dobrid and Karaman, 1983), while the influence of personality structure on each individual situational motoric ability adn each individual evaluation of performance was determined by a quasiregressional analysis (Stalec adn Momirovic, 1983).
When the criterial set of performance variables was defined by situational motoric abilities, the first significant pair of quasicanonical factors showed a moderate correlation between the efficacy of regulation of almost all conative mechanisms, especially those for regulation of attack and defence reactions and organic functions together with good homeostatic regulation, and the situational motoric abilities of precision of hitting a target and manipulation with the ball. Thus, a weak negative influence of general neuroticism on coordinative types of situational motoric abilities was observed. The second significant pair of canonical factors showed a moderate correlation between lower activity levels (mechanism) and a simultaneous good regulation of integrative functions and the situational motoric ability of non-linear running speed, and a somewhat lower correlation between these conative factors and dribbling speed and ball-kicking power. In other words, there was a week positive influence of normal introversion on the speed category of situational abilities.
When the criterial set of performance variables was defined by evaluations of performance in real matches, odly one significant pair of canonical factors was obtained whose structure showed that there was no correlation between efficacy in techno-tactical elements of football and player personality structure. These results were confirmed by the quasiregressional analysis since with the system of conative regulatory mechanisms it was possible to predict significantly only elements of behaviour and not the techno-tactical efficacy of the players.
