Relationships between indicators of internal aggression and age categories of athletes. The problem of moral verbality in sports

Аннотация

Objective of the study was to determine the dominant aggressiveness of various age categories of athletes as an etymological factor of inappropriate behavior after the end of a sports career and a potential factor in their asocialization.

Methods and structure of the study. 36 former athletes (2 international masters of sports, 13 masters of sports, 12 candidates for master of sports, 9 first-class athletes) of various age categories took part in the scientific work. Based on a questionnaire survey (questionnaire by L.G. Pochebut), the magnitude of aggression was determined and its direction was assessed [3]. The results were divided into categories: verbal aggression (verbal hostility); physical (use of physical force); subject (using household items); emotional (alienation with elements of hostility). The presence of connections between age categories of athletes and types of aggression was revealed based on the correlation coefficient of bivariate descriptive statistics for a quantitative measure of interaction [5].

Results and conclusions. Based on the data obtained, a hypothesis was formulated about the cause-and-effect relationship between the age of former and current athletes and physical and verbal aggression. No statistically significant connections were found between the age of athletes and emotional and objective aggression.

To compensate for the effect of the factor of verbal aggression in the process of socialization of active athletes, the authors proposed a method of socio-psychological mentoring, which is based on coaching pedagogical cultivation of positive verbality and control over the acquisition of positive social experience.
