Sažetak
A sample of 180 junior female Croatian volleyball players and younger took part in the measurement of their psychological skills, performed by applying the Athletic Coping Skills Inventory-28 (ACSI-28). Regarding team ranking in the competition and player quality within the team, all the participants were divided into 5 groups of different situational efficacy. In order to determine the differences in the level of psychological coping skills between the groups of players, a one-way ANOVA and discriminant analysis were performed. It was determined that the most successful players had the strongest selfconfidence and motivation, and that they were additionally characterized by the ability of good performance under pressure. The least successful players were characterized by constant worry about performing poorly or making mistakes, and concern with what other people would think about them if they do happen to make a mistake.
