Abstract

Sport in the world has been utilising psychology for a long time. In the most developed sports countries much higher emphasis has been laid for many years rather on development of psychosocial and coaching competence than strictly technical acquirements. Sports competition in basketball proceeds in conflict conditions and due to this it exerts a multilateral effect on psychic activities of participants. What is more, activity effectiveness during the game depends in a large degree on the development level of the psychoemotional, intellectual and volitionary sphere of sportsmen. Hence, investigations of the psychological factor on the process of achieving sports mastery by basketball women players, characterised by specific psychological characteristics, raise significant interest. Investigation of individualistic predispositions and resulting psychosocial behaviour plays an important role in sports activities, during the training process, as well as during competitions. Determination of relations between different psychological and pedagogical interaction characteristics is necessary for the individual and group management of a team in extreme situations. In the first part of the paper we will present personality characteristics assessed by the Gough test, which significantly correlate with sport effectiveness, as well as the personality model, conditioning high game effectiveness. In the second part we will present an innovative psychosocial system of mutual interactions between intentions, self-confidence, emotions, influence on game concentration in the team cohesion and situation self-creation system. IMOPEKSIS comprises the synthesis of newest achievements in the scope of success, business and sports psychology with 30-years experience of a permanent training experiment and sports competition. Experience has been verified by everyday variability of behaviour, individual and partner, group, situation feelings evaluated by sports successes in the form of World, European Vice-Championships and Polish Championship medals in women´s basketball.
