Resumen

El presente estudio pretende determinar el efecto mediador que el liderazgo auténtico del entrenador tiene sobre la interacción entre la competencia del entrenador y el apoyo percibido por los deportistas a las necesidades psicológicas básicas (NPB). Se realizó un estudio transversal con 115 jugadores de deportes de equipo (17,96 ±2,85 años; 8,18 ±4,67 años de experiencia) midiendo el Apoyo a las Necesidades Psicológicas Básicas, Liderazgo Auténtico Percibido y Percepciones de los Atletas sobre la Competencia del Entrenador. Se realizaron análisis de correlación y mediación (Competencia del entrenador → Liderazgo auténtico → Apoyo de las NPB). Se observó un efecto indirecto positivo y significativo (ƥ = 0,288; IC 95% = 0,167, 0,415) del liderazgo auténtico sobre la interacción entre la competencia del entrenador y el apoyo a las NPB (ƥ = 0,277; p < 0,01), aumentando el efecto total del modelo (ƥ = 0,555; p < 0,01) reforzando el apoyo a las NPB percibido por los deportistas cuando sus entrenadores son líderes competentes y auténticos. En conclusión, no basta con ser un entrenador bien preparado, también debe tener la capacidad de liderar, motivar y tomar decisiones cuidando sus interrelaciones con los deportistas y promoviendo la satisfacción de las necesidades psicológicas básicas
