- Abstract
The goal of this research is focused on discovering, firstly, base football players’ mood before competition, seeking to replicate the «Iceberg profile» (Morgan,1980 a, 1980b; O’Connor, 2006; Díaz, Gutiérrez y Hoyos, 2015; Peñaolaza, Jaenes, Méndez-Sánchez, Jaenes-Amarillo; 2016; Borges, Ruíz-Barquuín y De la Vega, 2017); secondly, on assessing whether there are significant differences in mood, understood as a multidimensional construct, depending on athletes’ gender and on the final result of a match. The study involved 95 soccer players (26 female and 69 male) belonging to cadet, youth, and senior categories of different football clubs competing in leagues of the city of Vitoria Gasteiz. Participants completed the abbreviated version A of the POMS, by Fuentes, García-Merita and Balaguer (1995) before and after the match on a league match-day. The results from means comparison (U Mann-Whitney) allow to support the hypothesis that mood profiles prior to competition are similar in males and females. Likewise, the results from multivariable analyses (MANCOVA) carried out after competition seem to indicate that mood fluctuates depending on the outcome of the match. The present study provides ideas on which factors influence mood of players in developmental categories. Knowing the factors influencing mood can be useful in order for coaches to regulate the messages they prepare and send to their players at critical moments of the matches and therefore of the season.
