Abstract
PRIETO, Joel Manuel. Psychological state of runners. Differences between federated and non-federated. Rev. Guillermo Ockham [online]. 2018, vol.16, n.1, pp.45-51. Epub July 28, 2021. ISSN 1794-192X. https://doi.org/10.21500/22563202.3845.
The purpose of this study is to meet the motivations and psychological state of the popular runners, differentiating between federated and non-federated, and between men and women. The sample was composed of 473 popular runners, using Motivations of Marathoners Scales (MOMS) and CSAI-2R to evaluate motivation and anxiety. The results indicate that federated runners present higher scores in sense of life and lower scores in self-confidence, achievement of personal goal, self-esteem and recognition search. On the other hand, the men obtained significantly higher scores on physical fitness, social interaction and attraction to the competition, convenience and competition and lower scores on the meaning of life.
