Osobene odlike mladih nadarenih ritmičkih gimnastičarki

Abstract

Glavni cilj istraživanja bio je da se ispitaju osobne karakteristike mladih nadarenih ritmičkih gimnastičarki, putem petofaktorskog modela ličnosti. Uzorak ispitanica se sastojao iz 47 devojčica (prosečne starosti 12.7 godina), podeljenih u četiri grupe: amaterke, uspešnije amaterke, takmičarke i uspešnije takmičarke (t.j.. nadarene ritmičke gimnastičarke) pod starateljstvom oba roditelja. Za procenu osobenosti korišćeni su i izveštaj o samovrednovanju (Neuroticism Extraversion Openness for children (NEOzd) i rangiranju (NEO PI-R). Rezultati analize varijanse (ANOVA) pokazali su da su ispitanice iz obe takmičarske grupe ostvarile veće vrednosti samovrednovanja u Otvorenosti, Prijatnosti, i Savesnosti (na osnovu procena majki) u poređenju sa obe grupe ispitanica amaterki. Rezultati ukazuju da nadarene ispitanice imaju osoben model ličnosti koji ih na osnovu visokih motoričkih sposobnosti čini najuspešnijim među ritmičkim gimnastičarkama.

The main goal of the research was to explore the personality traits of young gifted rhythmic gymnasts, from the point of view of the Five Factor Model. The sample consisted of 47 girls (average age 12.7 years), divided into four groups: amateurs, more successful amateurs, competitors and successful competitors (i.e. gifted rhythmic gymnasts) and both of their parents/custodians. For personality assessment both self-reports (Neuroticism Extraversion Openness for children (NEOzd)) and observer's ratings (NEO PIR) were used. The results of the ANOVA showed that girls from both competitor groups score higher on the self-report measure of Openness, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness and on Agreeableness assessed by mothers in comparison to both amateur groups. However, gifted girls did not differ significantly from other competitors. The results indicate that gifted girls have a certain personality pattern that along with the highest motor abilities makes them the most successful in rhythmic gymnastics.
