The influence of conative factors and cognitive characteristics on athletic achievement in water polo: A meta-analysis
The objective of this meta-analysis is to synthesize available research that has evaluated the influence of conative factors and cognitive characteristics on athletic achievement in water polo Research were identified through electronic databases and hand-searching volumes of pertinent journals. Water polo is a team sport characterised by inter-dependence of individual and collective achievements and the opposing team’s achievement. Due to such complex and multi- factorial nature, it is not easy to predict the level of water polo achievement. Based on the research, it can be concluded that the athlete’s behaviour is determined by the interaction and interplay of personality traits and the environment factors. Some research indicates that the improvements in cognitive functions may be influenced by a long- term engagement in complex sports, including water polo. According to some research, water polo players, especially water polo players at higher- quality level, have a significantly better personality profile and cognitive capacities with respect to non- athletes. In the selection process, it is assumed that water polo players with a suitable genetic predisposition regarding conative and cognitive capacities are generally more successful, as well as those who are predisposed to develop personality traits and intellectual capacities under the influence of the environment and training.
