          Abstract

          RESUMEN La presente investigación no experimental y descriptiva tiene como intención determinar las principales creencias y actitudes en deportistas cubanos de alto rendimiento respecto al dopaje. Se tomó una muestra de 300 deportistas pertenecientes a equipos nacionales de 37 deportes, a los que se le aplicó el instrumento Escala de actitudes y creencias sobre dopaje (Suárez y Ordoqui, 2019). Se realizó el análisis de los datos obtenidos mediante la distribución empírica de frecuencias, las medias y la desviación estándar. Se emplearon además la prueba KMO y Barlett para validar el uso del análisis factorial y la prueba Chi cuadrado de Pearson. Se pudo comprobar en más del 50% de la muestra, la presencia de creencias y actitudes de rechazo hacia el consumo de sustancias dopantes y quedaron expuestos los factores que los deportistas reconocen como los de mayor incidencia en la aparición de conductas de propensión hacia el dopaje.

          ABSTRACT The present non-experimental and descriptive research intends to determine the main beliefs and attitudes in high-performance Cuban athletes regarding doping. A sample of 300 athletes belonging to national teams of 37 sports was taken, to which the Doping Attitudes and Beliefs Scale instrument was applied (Suárez and Ordoqui, 2019). The analysis of the data obtained was carried out through the empirical distribution of frequencies, the means and the standard deviation. The KMO and Barlett test were also used to validate the use of factor analysis and Pearson's Chi-square test. It was possible to verify in more than 50% of the sample, the presence of beliefs and attitudes of rejection towards the consumption of doping substances and the factors that athletes recognize as those with the highest incidence in the appearance of propensity behaviors towards doping were exposed.

          RESUMO A presente pesquisa não experimental e descritiva pretende determinar as principais crenças e atitudes em atletas cubanos de alto rendimento em relação ao doping. Foi retirada uma amostra de 300 atletas pertencentes a seleções nacionais de 37 modalidades desportivas, às quais foi aplicado o instrumento Doping Attitudes and Beliefs Scale (Suárez e Ordoqui, 2019). A análise dos dados obtidos foi realizada por meio da distribuição empírica de frequências, médias e desvio padrão. O KMO e o teste de Barlett também foram utilizados para validar o uso da análise fatorial e o teste Qui-quadrado de Pearson. Foi possível verificar em mais de 50% da amostra, a presença de crenças e atitudes de rejeição ao consumo de substâncias dopantes e os fatores que os atletas reconhecem como os de maior incidência no aparecimento de comportamentos de propensão ao doping foram expostos.

            Self-reported attitudes of elite athletes towards doping: differences between type of sport.

            Although athletes' beliefs and values are known to influence whether or not an athlete will use banned drugs, little is known about the athletes' beliefs and attitudes in different sports. The aim of this study was to clarify the beliefs and attitudes of elite athletes towards banned substances and methods in sports. A total of 446 athletes (response rate 90.3 %; 446/494) financially supported by the National Finnish Olympic Committee completed a structured questionnaire during their national team camps in 2002. More than 90 % of the athletes reported to believe that banned substances and methods have performance enhancing effects, and 30 % reported that they personally know an athlete who uses banned substances. Of the male athletes 35 %, and 23 % of females reported they personally know an athlete using banned substances. A total of 15 % of the athletes reported that they had been offered banned substances: 21 % of the speed and power athletes, 14 % of the team sport athletes and of the athletes in motor skills demanding events, and 10 % of the endurance athletes. Stimulants were the most often offered substance group (to 7 % of all the athletes) followed by anabolic steroids (4 %). Subjects who regarded doping as a minor health risk seemed to be more often associated with doping users than those regarding doping as a significant health risk. Athletes in different sports have a different approach to doping. Risk of doping appears to be highest in speed and power sports and lowest in motor skills demanding sports. Males are at higher risk than females. Controlling doping only by tests is not sufficient. A profound change in the attitudes is needed, which should be monitored repeatedly.
