    This study aimedat measuring service quality, family support, coach-athlete intimacy to student-athlete achievement performance through motivation as a mediator. This was a correlational descriptive study that utilized the SEM (Structural Equation Modeling) approach with the assistance of Smart PLS. The researchers developed an instrument based on previous research data with a scale of 1–4. The subjects of this study were 125 Riau province student-athletes who will compete at POPNAS (National Student Sports Week) in Indonesia. Subjects consisted of 73 male athletes and 52 female athletes aged 15 ± 1.6 years. For data analysis, we used Smart PLS. The structural relationship model testing generated ten hypotheses. Among these, only the relationship between Coach-Athlete Intimacy and Achievement Performance showed a p-value of 0.532 > 0.05, indicating a lack of significant effect. However, the remaining nine hypotheses demonstrated a significant effect. The research model fulfills the fit model criteria, with data based on an SRMR (Standardized Root Mean Square) value of 0.064.The publication of this study anticipates improvements in service quality, family support, and nurturing coach-athlete relationships to enhance athlete motivation and achievement performance. Further research endeavors are essential to expand the sample size and explore additional variables influencing sports achievement.

    Violence in sports: A look at mental endurance, problem-solving, and violent tendencies in young active athletes
    (Servicio de Publicaciones. Universidad de Murcia, 2025) Kara, Tayfun; Sin departamento asociado
    This study aimed to examine the relationship between mental endurance, problem-solving skills, and attitudes toward violence in sports among young active athletes. The study population consisted of individuals aged 15–35 residing in Ankara Province, and the sample included 101 volunteer athletes training in various sports branches at the Youth and Sports Club in the Etimesgut district. Data were collected using a demographic information form, the Mental Endurance Inventory, the Independent–Reciprocal Problem-Solving Scale, and semi-structured interviews. The quantitative data were analyzed using SPSS (v. 22.0), while the qualitative data were evaluated through thematic analysis. The findings indicated that the athletes generally demonstrated above-average levels of mental endurance and problem-solving skills, while their tendencies toward violence were relatively low. Moreover, athletes who scored higher in the sub-dimensions of emotional control and stress management were better able to regulate negative emotions such as anger during competition and were less prone to aggressive behavior. Our findings highlight the crucial role of psychological resilience and social support in preventing violence in sports. Therefore, investing in the mental and social development of young athletes—by all stakeholders, including coaches, sports psychologists, families, and sports administrators—appears to be one of the most effective strategies to combat violence in the sporting arena.
