| Researchpurpose: Sports self-efficacy is a psychological factor that affects athletes’ self-confidence,which refers to an individual’s evaluation of whether their athletic ability and skills can complete sports tasks.An athlete’s athletic self-efficacy can be a good predictor of an athlete’s athletic performance.At the same time,taekwondo is a competitive fighting event,and the confrontation of taekwondo athletes is sudden and casual.At the same time,physical qualities such as muscle strength,agility,lower limb reaction strength and special endurance are also required.Having a very high psychological quality is very important for taekwondo athletes.It was found that social support is associated with exercise self-efficacy,so this study analyzes the correlation between social support and exercise self-efficacy,and uses loneliness as a mediating variable to explore whether it plays a mediating role between social support and exercise self-efficacy.Research methods: Through literature review and reference to previous questionnaire analysis experience,the research direction was further improved through expert interviews.After completing the questionnaire survey,Excel 2016 and SPSS 26.0 were used to summarize and compare the data.Then,statistical techniques such as descriptive statistics,reliability analysis,correlation analysis,analysis of variance,regression analysis,and process analysis were used to conduct intermediate test analysis on the data.Research results:(1)There was no difference in gender in each dimension of social support,and there were differences in training years and exercise level,among which the test showed that 1-4 years of exercise and 5-9 years of exercise were not significant,1-4 years of exercise was less than 10 years of exercise(P<0.02),and 5-9 years of exercise was less than 10 years of exercise(P<0.006).There was no significant difference in the sports level of second-level athletes,first-class athletes,national athletes,and international athletes,and third-level athletes were smaller than second-level athletes,first-class athletes,national athletes,and international athletes.(2)There was no difference in loneliness in gender,there were differences in training years and exercise level,and the test showed that 1-4 years of exercise and 5-9 years of exercise were not significant,1-4 years of exercise was less than 10 years of exercise(P<0.001),and 5-9 years of exercise was less than 10 years of exercise(P<0.001).The test showed that there was no significant difference in the sports level of taekwondo athletes in terms of loneliness,and that the third-level athletes were smaller than that of second-level athletes,first-class athletes,national athletes,and international athletes.(3)There was no significant difference in exercise self-efficacy in gender,and there were differences in training years and exercise level,and the test showed that 1-4 years of exercise and 5-9years of exercise were not significant,1-4 years of exercise was less than 10 years of exercise(P<0.001),and 5-9 years of exercise was less than 10 years of exercise(P<0.001).In terms of sports self-efficacy,there was no significant difference in the sports level of taekwondo athletes in terms of sports self-efficacy,and third-level athletes were smaller than second-level athletes,first-class athletes,national athletes,and international athletes.Research conclusion:In the analysis of the total effect of social support behavior on sports self-efficacy,there were obvious positive effects of assessment support,objective support,belonging support,and self-esteem support on the sports self-efficacy of taekwondo athletes.Loneliness has a significant negative effect on sports self-efficacy.However,there were obvious positive effects of belonging support and self-esteem support on the sports self-efficacy of taekwondo athletes,while assessment support and objective support had no significant effect on sports self-efficacy in the regression model.The experimental results show that the dimensions of belonging support and self-esteem support in social support can directly and positively predict the sports self-efficacy of taekwondo athletes,and can also affect the sports self-efficacy through loneliness in another path.Both the assessment support and objective support dimensions of social support need to play a role in the sports self-efficacy of taekwondo athletes through the mediating variable loneliness. |
