M.Sc. / This study investigated the correlations between the motivational profiles as defined by Achievement Goal Theory (AGT) and parental expectations and criticism of secondary school children in South Africa who participate in sport. A sample of 267 secondary school athletes completed the Task and Ego Orientation in Sport Questionnaire (TEOSQ) as well as the Parental Expectations (PE) and Parental Criticism (PC) subscales of the Multidimensional Perfectionism Scale (MPS). Results indicated that the majority of athletes have a high task orientation, with most of them having High task-Low ego and High task-High ego motivational profiles. High ego orientations showed positive correlations to Parental Criticism and Parental Expectation subscales of the MPS. A positive correlation was also found for task orientation and PE measures. This suggests that motivational profile may be highly influenced by the motivational climate with less parental criticism yielding higher desirable task orientation behaviours. It was also found that male participants scored higher than females for MPS subscale measures and that individuals residing with other parental figures than their biological parents reported higher perceptions of parental criticism.
