Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Motivación por la musculatura e insatisfacción corporal en usuarios del Zona Gym(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Yamasqui Guaman, Erick DanielCurrently, physical activity and gym training have gained significant relevance within modern lifestyles, not only as a health-oriented practice but also as a means to achieve socially valued aesthetic ideals. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between drive for muscularity and body dissatisfaction among users of Zona Gym during the period from March to August 2026. The study was conducted under a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational design. The sample consisted of 56 users of both sexes aged between 18 and 45 years. For data collection, the Drive for Muscularity Scale (DMS), which evaluates the attitudinal and behavioral dimensions associated with drive for muscularity, and the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ-18), which measures body dissatisfaction, were administered. Normality tests showed a non-normal distribution of the data, so Spearman's correlation was used. The results showed moderate levels of drive for muscularity and body dissatisfaction, as well as a very strong and statistically significant positive relationship between body dissatisfaction and the behavioral dimension of drive for muscularity, while no significant relationship was found with the attitudinal dimension. It is concluded that body dissatisfaction primarily influences behaviors oriented towards muscle development, constituting a relevant factor for understanding the behavior of gym users. Keywords: motivation, drive for muscularity, body dissatisfactionItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Temperamento y estrés percibido en futbolistas del Club Euro Star de la provincia de Cañar. Periodo marzo - agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Guamán Valdez, Josué IsraelThis study analyzes the relationship between temperament and perceived stress in 34 soccer players from the Euro Star Club in the province of Cañar, using a quantitative, non-experimental, correlational, and cross-sectional design. A 56-item Temperament Test and the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-10) were used, and the data were analyzed using Spearman’s correlation coefficient due to the lack of normality in the distribution. The results showed that the sanguine temperament was predominant in the sample, followed by the phlegmatic, melancholic, and choleric temperaments. Furthermore, a positive and statistically significant correlation was identified between the choleric and melancholic temperaments and perceived stress, indicating that soccer players with higher impulsivity, emotional sensitivity, and a tendency toward self-criticism experienced higher levels of stress. In contrast, the sanguine and phlegmatic temperaments did not show significant associations with perceived stress. It was concluded that temperament constitutes a relevant psychological factor for understanding stress perception in the sports context, providing evidence that may guide the design of intervention strategies aimed at strengthening emotional regulation and stress coping in soccer players. However, the results should be interpreted considering the study’s limitations, mainly the sample size and the evaluation conducted within a single sports club. Keywords: temperament, perceived stress, soccer players, sports performanceItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Adicción al entrenamiento y ansiedad precompetitiva en los deportistas de los clubes deportivos Cracks y MN23(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Yamasqui Guaman, Bryan AndresTraining addiction and pre-competitive anxiety are variables that may affect psychological well-being and athletic performance, especially in highly demanding competitive contexts. In this regard, the objective of the present study was to analyze the relationship between training addiction and pre-competitive anxiety in athletes from the Cracks and MN23 sports clubs. A quantitative study with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational design was conducted with a population of 41 athletes, using the Training Addiction Scale (TAS) and the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 Revised (CSAI-2R). Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, the Shapiro–Wilk normality test, Cronbach’s alpha, and Spearman’s correlation. The results showed moderate levels across the evaluated dimensions and positive and significant correlations between components of training addiction and pre-competitive anxiety, highlighting associations between pleasure and relaxation, withdrawal and craving, as well as between cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety, and self-confidence. It is concluded that athletes with higher levels of training dependence tend to have higher levels of pre-competitive anxiety. Therefore, it is necessary to promote strategies for monitoring training load and to provide psychological support to foster the overall well-being of athletes.

Revisión sistemática.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Aldaz Macias, Arelly DenisseBackground: Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder that affects patients' quality of life; therefore, having effective and safe treatments is a clinical priority. Objective: To compare the efficacy and safety profile of Olanzapine and Aripiprazole in patients with schizophrenia through a systematic review. Methodology: A search was conducted in PubMed, ScienceDirect, SciELO, and the Cochrane Library for studies published between 2015 and 2024. Randomized, double-blind clinical trials comparing both antipsychotics in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia were included. Literature reviews, editorials, and animal studies were excluded. Of the 850 records identified, 30 studies met the inclusion criteria after evaluation of their methodological quality. Results: More than 80% of the studies presented a low risk of bias. Both Olanzapine and Aripiprazole reduced symptoms assessed using the PANSS scale, with no differences in treatment discontinuation rates. Aripiprazole showed a favorable relative risk (RR = 1.91; 95% CI) and a better tolerability profile, whereas Olanzapine demonstrated greater efficacy in patients with severe cases, although it was associated with a higher risk of metabolic adverse effects. Conclusions: Both antipsychotics are effective in the treatment of schizophrenia. Olanzapine offers greater clinical efficacy in severe cases, whereas Aripiprazole has a favorable safety profile. The therapeutic choice should be individualized according to severity, patient characteristics, the risk of adverse effects, and the need to promote treatment adherence and improve quality of life.

Periodo marzo-agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Ordoñez Rueda, Shande AlejandroThe objective of this research was to analyze the association between physical activity and the emotional state of athletes from Zona Runner Teamer Club during the March–August 2026 period. The problem arose from the lack of systematic studies within the club to understand how physical practice relates to the emotional dimensions of its members. The study was conducted using a quantitative approach with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational design. The population consisted of 50 active athletes, aged between 18 and 65 years, and a census of the accessible population was conducted. The emotional state was evaluated using the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), whereas physical activity was estimated using the short version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). The analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics version 27 through descriptive statistics, Cronbach's alpha, the Shapiro-Wilk test, and Spearman's rho. The results showed that vigorous activity contributed the highest average to total energy expenditure; however, there was no statistically significant association between total physical activity or its specific components and either positive or negative affect. It is concluded that emotional state showed no significant relationship with the amount or intensity of self-reported physical activity. Keywords: physical activity, emotional state, athletes, running, PANASItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Nivel de actividad física y bienestar laboral en profesores de la Escuela de Educación Básica Emilio Abad de la ciudad de Azogues. Periodo marzo- agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Gonzalez Rojas, Brian StevenThis study aimed to analyze the relationship between physical activity level and occupational well-being among teachers at Emilio Abad Basic Education School in Azogues, from March to August 2026. A quantitative, non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational research design was used. The sample consisted of 50 teachers and school administrators, selected through census sampling. Two validated instruments were used for data collection: the International Physical Activity Questionnaire-Short Form (IPAQ-SF) to assess physical activity level, and the General Work Well-Being Questionnaire (QBLG, by its Spanish acronym), to measure occupational well-being. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive and inferential statistics, with Spearman’s correlation coefficient used to determine the relationship between the study variables. This research sought to provide evidence on the importance of physical activity as a factor associated with teachers’ occupational well-being and to generate useful information for the development of institutional strategies aimed at promoting health and well-being in the educational setting. Keywords: physical activity, occupational well-being, teachersItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Influencia de la actividad física en los niveles de ansiedad en deportistas del Club Corredores de Biblián Formativo Especializado. Periodo marzo-agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Yumbla Gutierres, Cristian IsmaelThe aim of this study was to analyze the relationship between the types, intensities, and frequency of physical activity and anxiety levels among athletes from the Biblián Specialized Development Running Club. The research adopted a quantitative approach with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational design. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical techniques to determine the relationship between the study variables. The findings revealed that participants exhibited high levels of physical activity and moderate levels of anxiety. No statistically significant relationship was found between overall physical activity and anxiety levels. However, one component of physical activity showed an inverse association with both dimensions of anxiety. In addition, a positive relationship was observed between state anxiety and trait anxiety. It is concluded that physical activity alone does not explain anxiety levels among athletes. Therefore, it is recommended to complement physical training with strategies aimed at enhancing psychological well-being and emotional management. Keywords: physical activity, anxiety, athletes, trainingItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Satisfacción en el deporte y percepción de causas de éxito en atletas amateur del Club Azogues Running. Periodo marzo- agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Yaguachi Ramírez, Ronald EfrenSatisfaction in sports is an essential psychological component for understanding retention, commitment, and positive experiences among amateur athletes. In this study, satisfaction was examined from a motivational perspective, given that intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, and amotivation provide a framework for interpreting enjoyment, personal meaning, and continuity in sports participation. The objective was to analyze the relationship between the dimensions of sports satisfaction and the perception of the causes of success among amateur athletes at Azogues Running Club during the March - August 2026 period. The study was conducted using a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental, cross-sectional design and a correlational scope. The results showed acceptable reliability across all dimensions evaluated. Similarly, task orientation obtained higher scores than ego orientation. Because the Shapiro-Wilk test indicated a non-normal distribution, Spearman's correlation was used. Furthermore, extrinsic motivation was positively correlated with both orientations, while amotivation was negatively associated with task orientation and positively associated with ego orientation. It is concluded that satisfaction based on effort and improvement predominates. Keywords: satisfaction, motivation, perceptionItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Clima motivacional y las metas de logro en futbolistas de clubes de tercera categoría en la provincia del Azuay Cuenca Juniors y Estrella Roja. Periodo marzo-agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Crespo Cedillo, Jonnathan EfraínThis study aimed to analyze the relationship between motivational climate and achievement goals among third-division soccer players from Cuenca Juniors and Estrella Roja clubs. A quantitative approach was employed, utilizing a non-experimental, cross-sectional design with a correlational scope. The sample consisted of 50 soccer players, selected through non-probabilistic convenience sampling. Data collection involved the application of the Perceived Motivational Climate in Sport Questionnaire (PMCSQ-2) and the Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire (TEOSQ). Statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS version 27 software, employing Cronbach's alpha, the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, and Spearman's correlation to analyze the relationship between variables. Results showed acceptable reliability levels across all evaluated dimensions. Furthermore, a predominant tendency towards ego orientation was observed, along with a significant relationship between the task-involving climate and the soccer players' achievement goals, particularly highlighting its association with ego orientation. It was concluded that the motivational climate generated by the coach is related to the development of athletes' achievement goals, fostering the coexistence of objectives related to personal development and athletic performance. Keywords: motivational climate, achievement goals, ego orientation, task orientation, soccer playersItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Motivación y nivel de actividad física en socios de la Cooperativa San Francisco. Periodo marzo – agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Angamarca Gomez, Elvis DanielBackground: This study aimed to determine the relationship between the level of physical activity and the types of motivation among members of the San Francisco Taxi Cooperative. It was conducted using a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental, cross-sectional design and a descriptive-correlational scope. The sample consisted of 50 driver-members aged between 20 and 65 years. For data collection, the BREQ-2 questionnaire, which evaluates motivation toward exercise, and the short version of the IPAQ, which estimates the level of physical activity in MET-min/week, were administered. The reliability of the BREQ-2 was acceptable (α = 0.773). The results showed a predominance of intrinsic motivation and identified regulation, indicating that participants engage in physical activity mainly for personal satisfaction and because they recognize its health benefits. In addition, a high level of physical activity was recorded, with a greater contribution from vigorous activity. However, the correlations between the level of physical activity and the motivational dimensions were low and not significant. It is concluded that motivation constitutes an important factor, although it alone does not explain the level of physical activity in this population. Keywords: physical activity, motivation, sedentary lifestyle, taxi driversItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Relación entre la imagen corporal y la autoestima en usuarios del gimnasio Body Tech. Periodo marzo-agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Uzhca Fajardo, Eduardo JoséThe objective of this research was to identify the relationship between body image and self-esteem in users of the Body Tech gym during the period March-August 2026. It was developed under a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational scope design. The sample consisted of 72 users between 18 and 60 years old, selected through non-probabilistic convenience sampling. For data collection, the Body Shape Questionnaire (BSQ-18), to assess body image, and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSE), to measure self-esteem, were employed. Both instruments presented adequate levels of internal consistency. Because the variables did not show a normal distribution, the relationship between them was analyzed using the Spearman's Rho coefficient. The results evidenced a moderate and statistically significant negative correlation between body image and positive self-esteem (ρ = -.477; p < .01), as well as a significant positive correlation between body image and negative self-esteem (ρ = .346; p < .01). It is concluded that greater dissatisfaction with body image is associated with lower levels of self-esteem and a greater presence of negative self-perceptions. These findings confirm the existence of a significant relationship between both variables and highlight the importance of considering psychological aspects in physical and sports practice contexts. Keywords: body image, self-esteem; gyms, psychological well-being, body perceptionItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Relación entre la inteligencia emocional y la resiliencia en árbitros de fútbol del Cañar. Periodo marzo–agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Siguencia Verdugo, Jaime RonaldoBackground: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between emotional intelligence and resilience among soccer referees affiliated with the Referees Association of Cañar during the March–August 2026 period. The study was conducted under a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental, cross-sectional design and correlational scope. The sample consisted of 50 soccer referees selected through non-probabilistic convenience sampling. For data collection, the Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale (WLEIS-S) and the Resilience Scale (RS-14) were used, both validated in Spanish-speaking populations. Statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics version 25 software, employing descriptive statistics, normality tests, and Pearson’s correlation coefficient. The results showed high levels of emotional intelligence and resilience among the participants. Total, emotional intelligence had a mean score of 86.04 points, while total resilience had a mean of 80.26 points. However, the correlation between both variables was very weak, negative, and not statistically significant (r = -0.194; p = 0.177). It is concluded that there is insufficient evidence to establish a significant relationship between emotional intelligence and resilience among the referees evaluated. Keywords: emotional intelligence, resilience, sports officiating, soccer, sports psychologyItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Características psicológicas relacionadas con el rendimiento deportivo en futbolistas: revisión bibliográfica(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Tenesaca Alvarez, Fanny LizbethAthletic performance in soccer has traditionally been analyzed from a physical and technical perspectives, with psychological factors relegated to the background, despite their decisive influence on athletes’ performance. This limited integration has created a gap between scientific knowledge and its application in training. This study aimed to analyze the psychological characteristics related to athletic performance in soccer players through a literature review, identify the main psychological factors that influence their performance, and provide theoretical foundations for strengthening professional practice in the field of sports. The study was conducted under a qualitative, descriptive approach through a literature review. Twenty scientific articles published between 2020 and 2025 were analyzed and selected from databases such as SciELO, Redalyc, Scopus, and Google Scholar, using inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results show that variables such as motivation, self-confidence, stress management, concentration, competitive anxiety, and team cohesion significantly influence athletic performance. It was found that adequate levels of these characteristics enhance performance, while their deficiency negatively affects technical execution and decision-making. It is concluded that athletic performance in soccer depends on the interaction of dimensions such as motivation, self-confidence, stress management, concentration, and team cohesion. Therefore, it is necessary to integrate psychological training into sports planning to optimize athletic performance and players’ well-being.

Periodo marzo-agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Hurtado Zhapan , Kevin AndresThis study analyzes the relationship between lifestyle and mental health in secondary school teachers at the Unidad Educativa del Milenio Manuela Garaicoa de Calderón during the March–August 2026 period. A quantitative approach with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational design was used to evaluate a sample of 50 teachers using the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12) and a healthy lifestyle instrument. The results demonstrated adequate reliability of both instruments and showed a significant relationship between the variables under study. It was determined that dimensions such as nutrition, physical activity, social relationships, and the environment directly influence teachers' psychological well-being. It was identified that teachers with healthy habits present lower levels of anxiety, depression, social dysfunction, and loss of confidence. In contrast, unhealthy practices such as sedentary behavior, poor nutrition, and inadequate stress management were associated with deterioration in mental health. Likewise, the teaching work environment, characterized by high workloads and institutional demands, contributes to the development of stress and emotional exhaustion, thereby reinforcing the importance of promoting healthy lifestyles.

Periodo marzo-agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Rocano Rivera, Jonnathan OswaldoBackground: This research aimed to determine the perception of quality and loyalty in the private sports services provided by the Guacamayos F.C. Soccer School. It was conducted using a quantitative approach, with a non-experimental, cross-sectional, and correlational design. For data collection, the Perceived Quality in Sports Organizations Scale (EPOD, by its Spanish acronym) was used, which assesses the dimensions of technical quality, facilities and equipment activities, and organizational image, as well as the loyalty dimension of the Future Behavioral Intentions Scale in users of sports services. The results showed a favorable perception of service quality and high levels of loyalty among users. Likewise, the instruments showed excellent internal consistency. However, the correlations between the quality dimensions and loyalty were weak and non-significant, indicating that loyalty does not depend exclusively on perceived quality. It is concluded that users maintain a positive assessment of the service, although other factors may influence their continued use and recommendation of the institution. Keywords: perceived quality, loyalty, sports services, soccer schoolItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Características psicológicas relacionadas con el rendimiento deportivo en boxeadores del Club Wing Chun Azogues. Periodo marzo-agosto 2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Collaguazo Sellán, Dayanara MishellPsychological characteristics related to athletic performance are determining factors in boxers’ performance, as they can influence their performance both positively or negatively. This study aimed to analyze the psychological characteristics related to athletic performance among boxers at the Wing Chun Azogues Club from March to August 2026. Method: The study was conducted using a quantitative approach, employing a non-experimental, descriptive, cross-sectional design. The population consisted of 53 athletes aged 18 to 30, so a census sample was used. Data were collected using the Questionnaire on Psychological Characteristics Related to Athletic Performance (CPRD, by its Spanish acronym). Cronbach's alpha was calculated for each variable, and the results demonstrated that the instrument exhibited high reliability. Statistical analysis was performed using IBM SPSS v. 27, applying nonparametric tests and Spearman's correlation. The results revealed significant relationships between stress management, motivation, the influence of performance evaluation, and team cohesion. Likewise, the predominant dimension was the influence of performance evaluation, which recorded the highest mean (M=4.6), reflecting a high sensitivity to the assessment of competitive performance, whereas team cohesion showed the lowest levels. In conclusion, psychological characteristics are a fundamental component of athletic performance and should be systematically incorporated into training processes to optimize competitive performance. Keywords: psychological characteristics, athletic performance, psychological variables, boxersItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Estilo del entrenador y su incidencia en el disfrute deportivo: revisión sistemática(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Ajila Ordoñez, Kevin AlexanderThe relationship between coach leadership style and its impact on sport enjoyment has generated growing interest in the scientific literature. This study aimed to analyze the scientific evidence on coach leadership style and its impact on sport enjoyment through a systematic review based on the PRISMA guidelines. Method: The search was conducted in the Scopus, SciELO, and PubMed databases, considering articles published between 2021 and January 2026 in Spanish and English. During the eligibility process, 270 studies were identified; 25 were removed for duplication. Subsequently, after reviewing titles, abstracts, and full texts, studies that did not meet the established inclusion and exclusion criteria were excluded. Finally, 15 articles were selected for qualitative analysis. The results show the presence of transformational, democratic, autonomy-supportive, and authoritarian controlling styles. The autonomy-supportive style predominated due to its positive relationship with self-determined motivation, psychological well-being, group cohesion, and sport enjoyment. Likewise, transformational leadership promotes social identity and athletes’ commitment. On the other hand, controlling and authoritarian styles are associated with psychological pressure, demotivation, and lower sport enjoyment. In conclusion, coach leadership style significantly influences the quality of the sports experience and the continued participation of athletes in physical activity. Keywords: coach leadership style, sports enjoyment, leadership, sports participation.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , El baloncesto como estrategia para el desarrollo de habilidades motrices en edad escolar: revisión bibliográfica.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Torres Beltrán, Franco IsmaelThe development of motor skills in school-age children is a fundamental part of the growth stage, which makes it possible to develop motor coordination, psychosocial, and sports skills. Basketball is one of the disciplines that, due to its characteristics, can support this development. This research aimed at identifying the development of motor skills in schoolchildren through a literature review, to analyze the benefits of the sport in development. The methodology was analytical with a qualitative approach, considering cognitive and motor processes in children associated with basketball. The following criteria were used for this research: keyword searches in scientific databases, including Scopus, Redalyc, SciELO, and Google Scholar. The inclusion criteria were scientific articles, theses, and documents in English and Spanish, published between 2012 and 2025, and with open access. The exclusion criteria were articles published before 2012, with restricted access, and those that did not include the complete research variables. The results obtained indicate that basketball makes a significant contribution to motor development in functions associated with coordinative capacity, laterality, as well as intellectual, sensory, and physical development. It is concluded that basketball benefits schoolchildren's motor skills, contributes to the development of self-awareness and social skills, and promotes abilities that support learning processes and contribute to each child's cognitive structure. Keywords: motor skills, motor development, basketball, schoolchildren.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Metodologías para el desarrollo de las capacidades coordinativas en futbolistas adolescentes: revisión bibliográfica(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Parra Ochoa, Pablo SebastiánNowadays, there are many different soccer training programs available, as soccer is a very popular sport that is constantly played in schools, high schools, and universities in Ecuador, to the point that it has become a planned discipline within the area of physical education, where instructors take advantage of this recreational or sporting physical activity to encourage students to develop conditional and coordinative skills while enjoying the practice. This article aims to detail a compilation of viable methodologies for developing coordination skills in adolescent soccer players through an exhaustive qualitative literature review, as its variables focus on interpretation rather than measuring numerical variables. The study has focused on reliable articles from sources such as Scopus, Dialnet, and others that provide reliable information, resulting in a collection of 21 articles that enrich the research on the proposed topic. It is concluded that combining physical and neuromuscular training with techniques and games can improve performance and reduce the risk to players in the field. Considering that decision-making in sports is a process that integrates several aspects, such as self-confidence, motivation, concentration, and emotion, along with each of their subcategories. Keywords: methodologies, coordination skills, discipline, and sportsItem type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Clima en el deporte generado por el entrenador y percibido por las futbolistas de la categoría femenil del club Progreso F.C. temporada 2025-2026(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Romero Guaman, Jesufer SantiagoSport climate is considered a psychosocial factor of great relevance in sport, due to its influence on both mental and physical well-being, promoting continued participation in sports, with the coach being a key agent in this context. Within this framework, the aim of this research was to analyze the sport climate generated by the coach as perceived by female soccer players of Club Progreso F.C., conducting a quantitative, cross-sectional study in which the Coach-Athlete Relationship (CART-Q) and Sport Climate Questionnaire (S-SCQ) were administered. The population comprised 30 female soccer players, selected through non-probabilistic purposive sampling, who agreed to participate and signed informed consent. Reliability analyses showed adequate internal consistency of the instruments used. In the descriptive analysis, the sport climate had a mean of 5.96, while the perception of the coach–athlete relationship reached an overall mean of 6.61, with the commitment dimension being the highest at 6.88 on a 1-to-7 scale. Bivariate correlation analysis did not reveal statistically significant associations between perceived motivational climate and the dimensions of the coach–athlete relationship. This result indicates that the perception of the motivational climate is not directly related to the appraisal of closeness, commitment, and complementarity in the coach–athlete relationship. Furthermore, although these dimensions are positively associated with one another, they do not reach statistical significance and thus appear to operate relatively independently. Keywords: sport climate, coach, female footballers, motivation, coach-athlete relationship
