NOBRE, Glauber Carvalho et al. Self-perception of competence in children from socially vulnerable contexts, assisted and unassisted by social sports projects. J. Hum. Growth Dev. [online]. 2015, vol.25, n.3, pp.271-276. ISSN 0104-1282.  https://doi.org/10.7322/jhgd.97673.

INTRODUCTION: practising sport contributes tothe reinforcement of important psychological features such as self-perception of competence, especially when participants are children from socially vulnerable contexts OBJECTIVE: to compare the socially vulnerable children's self-perception of competence, assisted and unassisted by social sports projects METHOD: a total of 235 children (male and female), aged between seven and ten years, participated in this comparative study. They were divided into two groups: one group was formed by 106 children participating in social sports projects; the other was 129 children who did not participate in social sports projects. The self-perception of competence was assessed by the Brazilian version of the Self-Perception Profile for Children. We used a three-way ANOVA to assess the possible interaction effect between gender, age and group (children assisted and unassisted) in the different dimensions of perceived competence RESULTS: The children attending sports projects reported higher overaL global self-worth (F1.234) = 6,132, p = 0.014, η2 = 0.026). It was observed that there was an effect of interaction between the variable age x group (F1,234) = 6.673, p = 0.010, η2 = 0.029) on the self-perception of social acceptance. There were no significant effects of group on the other dimensions of self-perception of competence CONCLUSION: the children participatingin social sports projects showed more self-perception in terms of social acceptance and self-concept compared to non participatory children. This project does not help in other dimensions of self-perception
