GOMES, A. Rui; SA, Paulo e SOUSA, Sara Almeida e. Os efeitos da formulação de objectivos sobre o rendimento desportivo de duas equipas de andebol sénior. Aná. Psicológica [online]. 2004, vol.22, n.4, pp.721-736. ISSN 0870-8231.
Although the positive effects of using goal-setting programmes are well established on industrial and educational contexts, we dont verify the same setting in what concerns to the sports field, where the results of these kind of approaches are still totally unproven (Kyllo & Landers, 1995). As Gould (1993) refers, these intervention programmes arent always applied correctly, due to ignoring the various factors which can influence this techniques efficacy. Therefore, the present study attempted to analyse the connection between goal-setting and sports performance based on the results of the implementation of two goal-setting programmes with two professional handball teams, during two seasons. Specifically, the goal-setting programmes were based on the definition of individual and team goals, on an attempt to control variables such as the degree of the athletes experience, the goals public and private discussion and the games differences in terms of degrees of difficulty. The results suggest the efficacy of the developed programmes not only on the improvement of the athletes sport performance in different handball skills, but also on the increase of their level of commitment towards the teams success.
