| Sumario: | This study aimed to analyze and demonstrate the influence of coaches’ behavior on the motivation and performance of athletes. This correlational descriptive study utilized the Structural Equation Model(SEM) approachthroughthesmart PLSanalysis application. The studycomprisedasampleof121 athletes from various individual and group sports. The behavior of coaches’, in general, encompasses fivevariables: mentalskill, coaching style, characterbuilding, nutritionknowledge, and coaching science. Motivation comprises intrinsic and extrinsic factors, while athletes' performance is determined by their qualities during training and physical test results. Data collection involved distributing questionnaires, supplemented by several interviews to bolster the research findings. The study's findings illustrated the R-squared determinant coefficients, indicating the significance of trainer behavior in athletes' performance, which stands at 0.696 (69.6%), and the impact of trainer behavior on motivation, recorded at 0.448 (44.8%). Among the variables tested, only one variable (characterbuilding) showedno discernibleeffectonathletes'performance (p>0.05). Conversely, the remaining variables significantly influenced achievement motivation, athletes' performance, or mediated variables through achievement motivation to athlete performance (p < 0.05). These results are anticipated to serve as a guideline for coaches, emphasizing the pivotal role of coach quality in athletes' technical performance and overall achievement. |
