Propriedades Psicométricas da Versão Brasileira da Escala de Satisfação das Necessidades Básicas no Esporte (BNSSS)

Abstract

Resumo Este estudo investigou as propriedades psicométricas da versão brasileira da Basic Needs Satisfaction in Sport Scale (BNSSS). O instrumento foi traduzido e adaptado por três especialistas da área. Um total de 475 atletas participaram deste estudo: 395 em um estudo de validade e 80 em um estudo de estabilidade temporal. Os resultados demonstraram traduções claras e pertinentes entre os três especialistas, e consistência interna satisfatória dos itens em português. Diferentes modelos foram testados (AFE e AFC), sendo que o modelo mais estável sugeriu a exclusão de oito itens e retenção de três fatores. A análise multigrupos apontou a invariância parcial entre os sexos. A escala apresentou estabilidade temporal (CCI>0.70). Concluiu-se que a versão brasileira da BNSSS apresentou propriedades psicométricas aceitáveis.

Basic Psychological Needs and Sports Satisfaction Among Brazilian Athletes and Coaches: The Mediating Role of the Dyadic Relationship

“…We used the Brazilian version of the Basic Needs Satisfaction in Sport Scale (Nascimento Junior et al, 2018), originally developed by Ng et al (2011), to investigate the satisfaction of basic psychological needs of coaches and athletes. Differently from the original scale (which has five dimensions: competence, choice, internal perceived locus of causality, volition, and relatedness), the Brazilian scale is constituted of only one general dimension of autonomy.…”

“…In the EFA, the authors tested different models in order to find the best fit since the content analysis revealed inconsistencies. Thus, the instrument is composed of 12 items distributed in three dimensions: competence (item 6 “I feel that I am good at my sport”), autonomy (item 1 “In my sport, I fell that I am pursuing my personal goals”) and relatedness (item 4 “There are people in my sport who care about me”), which is available for reader consultation (Nascimento Junior et al, 2018). Answers are given in a 7-point Likert scale ranging from 1– “Not true at all” to 7– “Very true.” Scale Confirmatory Factor Analysis (CFA) presented acceptable fit for athletes [ X 2 (51) = 82.137; p = 0.004; X 2 / df = 1.611; CFI = 0.94; GFI = 0.93; TLI = 0.93; RMSEA = 0.06; P (rmsea < 0.05) = 0.268].…”

Psychometric properties of the Coach-Athlete Relationship Questionnaire (CART-Q) in a sample of Brazilian youth and adult athletes

“…34,35 The Brazilian version of the Basic Needs Satisfaction in Sport Scale (BNSSS) was used. 36 The Brazilian scale consists of 12 items divided into three subscales: competence (e.g. "I am skilled in my sport"), autonomy (e.g.…”

Psychometric Properties of the Coach-Created Empowering and Disempowering Motivational Climate Questionnaire (EDMCQ-C) in a Brazilian Sample of Athletes: An ESEM Approach

“…(3) Basic Needs Satisfaction Sport Scale (BNSSS): The BNSSS [26,27] consists of 12 items, four tapping competence need satisfaction (e.g., "I have the ability to perform well in my sport"), four satisfaction of the need for autonomy (e.g., "In my sport, I can take part in the decision-making process"), and four assessing relatedness need satisfaction (e.g., "In my sport, I feel close to other people"). In responding to the EDMCQ-C and BNSSS, the athletes responded to the items on 5-point Likert scales ranging from (1) strongly disagree to (5) strongly agree.…”
