RESUMO
Actualmente novos contextos de exercício profissional ganham espaço e significado para o profissional do desporto. A profissão complexifica-se requerendo profissionais competentes capazes de responder às novas exigências. A falta de consenso em torno do conceito de competência adquire maior visibilidade, impelindo a procura de elementos que contribuam para a (re)construção de um conceito de competência aplicável ao renovado campo de intervenção do profissional do desporto. Este estudo tem como principal propósito contribuir para a identificação do campo nocional que rodeia o conceito de competência em quatro áreas de intervenção do profissional do desporto – Educação Física, Treino Desportivo, Fitness e Actividade Física Adaptada. Foram entrevistados 120 profissionais (30 de cada área ocupacional) sobre os termos e características que associam à competência. Na análise dos dados recorreu-se aos procedimentos de análise de conteúdo. Os resultados indicam a existência de uma grande diversidade de termos e características associadas à noção de competência, sendo que a dimensão ética ocupa um lugar proeminente e o conhecimento se assume como elemento nuclear em todas as áreas ocupacionais.

ABSTRACT
Terms and characteristics associated with competence. Comparative study among sport’s professionals who work in different contexts of sport
Nowadays new contexts of professional intervention are gaining space and meaning for sports professionals. The profession is growing in complexity, requiring competent professionals able to answer to these new requirements. The lack of consensus around the concept of competence acquires greater visibility and urges the search for the elements that can contribute to the (re)construction of a valid and useful concept of competence, with potential to renovate professional field of sport. The main purpose of this study was to inspect the concept of competence ruling in four professional sports areas: Physical Education, Fitness, Coach training, and Adapted Physical Activity. A hundred and twenty sport professionals (30 by occupational area) were interviewed about the terms and characteristics they associate to competence. Content analysis procedures were used in data analysis. The results show a wide variety of terms and characteristics associated with the notion of competence, revealing the prominent place of ethical dimension and knowledge as a core component in all occupational areas.
