This study aimed at testing a meditational model in which goal orientation, self-determined motivation and sportspersonship were predictive factors of aggressiveness. Italian martial artists (N = 366; Mage = 29.53, SD = 9.107; Men = 325, Female = 41) were asked to fulfil a questionnaire assessing sport orientation, sport motivation, sportspersonship, and aggressiveness. The path analysis supported for the hypothesized model: selfdetermined motivation mediates the relationship between motivational orientations and sportspersonhip, which in turn mediates the relationship between motivation and aggressiveness. The results suggest to consider these motivational factors in order to plan interventions to prevent aggressiveness among athletes.
