| Summary: | In tune with the multiple achievement goal framework assumptions (Elliot, 1999; Elliot &
McGregor, 2001), the present study examined the relationships among achievement goals, fear
of failure and perceived coaching climate in male sepak takraw players. Participants (N = 96)
completed questionnaires assessing their achievement goals (AGQ-S; Conroy et al., 2003), fear
of failure (PFAI; Conroy, 2001) and a modified version of the AGQ-S for assessing perceived
coaching climate. Results revealed that the different achievement goal oriented coaching
climates found to be significantly correlated to corresponding achievement goals adopted by
athletes with the exception of Performance-avoidance goals. None of the achievement goals were
significantly correlated to fear of failure. Age was positively correlated to Performance- avoidance goals while Performance-approach goals were negatively correlated to years of
competitive sport participation |
