Study on Vices and Factors That Negatively Influence Sports Performance

Summary/Abstract: The concept of vices is complex and varies according to cultural, social and historical context. In different periods and cultures, certain behaviours or habits were considered vicious or virtuous according to prevailing norms and values. It is important to note that perceptions of vices are largely subjective and change according to the evolution of society and cultural values. Athletes, like everyone else, may be likely to develop various vices during their sports career. These vices can have a negative impact on their performance and on their personal life in general. The impact of sport on vices can be positive and can significantly contribute to their prevention and management through the following ways: healthy and disciplined lifestyle, increased self-discipline, stress and anxiety management, and, mood recovery, mentoring and team support, education and awareness, identifying and managing risks and monitoring mental health.
