Desempenho percebido, potência de equipes, stresse e capital psicológico: suas correlações em equipes femininas de esportes coletivos

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the correlations between Perception of Performance at Work and the Perception of Stress, Team Power and Psychological Capital. Perception of Performance at Work is a construct composed of two dimensions (with its own characteristics and definitions): Task Performance and Contextual Performance. Team Power is a relatively new concept to be studied, and it is defined as the capabilities and beliefs that individuals have that they are able to perform a given activity successfully. Already Stress in the Work can be defined as the degree of total wear caused by the work, with the existence of effects in the mind or body, whereas Psychological Capital is composed of four dimensions (with its own definition and measurement): Hope, Optimism, Resilience and Self Efficiency. In order to reach the goal, four scales (ICPT -25; Stress Questionnaire; EGDT; EPET) were applied to 31 female amateur sport teams. The results showed significant correlations between Power Perception and Task Performance; Task and Contextual Expectations; Optimism and Contextual Performance and Effectiveness and Task and Contextual Performances. The limitations of this research, its contributions and a research agenda were presented as a conclusion.
