- Abstract
Introduction: The objectives of the present study were to comparative analyse between instruction before competition and instruction during competition, about their expectations (cognitive variable) and the instruction behaviour (behavioural variable) of the soccer coach. Materials and Methods: Twelve situations of instruction before competition and twelve situations of competition were analysed. Six soccer coaches were observed (two sessions each) in male senior step on 2nd B Portuguese League. The instruments used to collect data were: the Questionnaire of Instruction Expectations in Competition (QIEC) to estimate cognitive variable - Expectations; and the Information Analyse in Competition System (IACS) to estimate behavioural variable - Instruction. Results: Concerning the comparative analysis, we can conclude that soccer coaches expressed a significantly consistency between instruction before competition and instruction during competition, regarding expectations and instruction behaviour.
