  abstract  = {Objectives: To examine the development of volition in young athletes attending an elite sport school. Because volition is important for realising long and intense training loads during the course of an athletic career the question is if the context of a school for young elite athletes promotes its development. Design: Two studies are described, one with a cross-sectional (study 1) and another with a longitudinal design (study 2). Methods: In the cross-sectional study the volitional skills of 327 students attending a school for young elite athletes were analysed according to age and living situation (at home/in the boarding school). In the longitudinal study the development of volition of 63 young elite athletes was compared to that of 122 non-athletic students attending a regular school. In both studies volition is measured with the Volitional Components Questionnaire (VCQ II). On the basis of a factor analysis conducted in study 1, two factors could be identified, namely self-optimisation, which includes skills needed to achieve goals, and self- impediment, which includes skills addressed in stress situations. Results: Study 1 suggests that self-impediment shows a development and that volitional skills develop more favourably in athletes living in the boarding school. These results are confirmed by the longitudinal study. The second study additionally shows that volitional skills concerning self- optimisation develop more favourably in the young elite athletes when compared to regular students. Conclusion: Only advantages concerning the development of volition in students attending a school for young elite athletes were found. (c) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved},

  abstract  = {In this paper the psychometric quality of the sport-specific Volitional Components Questionnaire (VKS) is examined. After an item analysis, a factor analysis was undertaken resulted in the four factors self optimization, lack of activation, loss of focus, and self impediment. The questionnaire exhibits satisfactory internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha) and retest reliability. In line with theory (Kuhl, 2001), correlations with the general questionnaire VCQ II (Kuhl \& Fuhrmann, 1998) and sport-specific action orientation as measured with the HOSP questionnaire (Beckmann, 2003) indcate construct validity. Validity can also be shown by correlations with the external criterion of expert rating by coaches. In addition, the VKS is able to differentiate between athletes who perform well and those who perforin poorly.},
