Öz

Amaç: Duygusal zeka, spor psikolojisinde önemli bir performans belirleyicisi olarak incelenmiştir. Ayrıca, öz-yeterlik ve kendine güven, sporcu performansını artırmak için kritik bir yapı olarak görülmektedir. Bu çalışma, takım sporlarında duygusal zekanın öz-yeterlik ve özgüven arasındaki rolünü araştırmayı amaçlamıştır. Materyal ve Metot: Çalışma grubuna beysbol voleybol ve futbol dahil olmak üzere elit takım sporcuları alınmıştır. Araştırma verileri duygusal zeka envanteri, genel öz-yeterlik ölçeği ve özgüven ölçeği ile toplanmıştır. Vveriler aracılık analizi ile analiz edilmiştir. Model, duygusal zekanın öz-yeterlik ve kendine güven arasında bir aracı olduğunu öne sürmektedir. Bulgular: Sonuçlar, duygusal zekanın öz yeterlik ve özgüven arasında aracı rolü olduğunu göstermiştir. Sonuç olarak, öz-yeterlik düzeyinin artması, takım sporcularının yüksek düzeyde duygusal zekaya sahip olmalarını sağlamakta ve bu da onların özgüvenlerinin artmasına neden olmaktadır. Sonuç: Bu çalışma, takım sporlarında duygusal zekanın rolü hakkındaki bilgimizi genişletmek için önemli kanıtlar sağlayarak öz-yeterlik, duygusal zeka ve özgüvenin nasıl ilişkili olduğunu açıklamaktadır.
