EFFECT OF MOTIVATION LEVEL ON PROFESSIONAL SUCCESS IN SPRINTERS

Abstract

The item shows the results of a study regarding the influence that motivation to success and failure avoidance has on professional performance in sprinters. There is a view on the correlates between the motivation and the central nervous system, the level of its activation and functioning reliability, as well as relation to the motor asymmetry and chronotype. This is the first time that the success markers in sprint were viewed through a specially developed index of ∆SM- FAM, which shows the prevalence of motivation to success over failure avoidance. The outcomes obtained could serve the basis for an early and efficient professional selection when enrolling young students to athletics school.
