VIEIRA, Tatiana Cristina Henrique et al. Relationship between Passion for Work, Well-Being and Occupational Self-Efficiency in Sports Coaches. Rev. bras. orientac. prof [online]. 2022, vol.23, n.2, pp. 163-173. ISSN 1984-7270.  http://dx.doi.org/10.26707/1984-7270/2022v23n0205.

The aim of this study was to verify the associations between passion for work, well-being and occupational self-efficacy in sports coaches. 139 coaches of both sexes participated (71.2% male). Positive effects of harmonious passion have been observed on positive affects and occupational self-efficacy, and negative effects on negative affects. Obsessive passion positively predicted negative affects. Still, the mediating role of positive affects in the relationship between harmonious passion and occupational self-efficacy was identified. Corroborating the theoretical hypotheses, the results suggest the importance of harmonious involvement with professional activity, its potential on positive emotional experiences and perception of competence to face professional challenges.
