Kontextuela styrkor av en talangutvecklings miljö i Stockholm (Swedish)
Abstract [en]

Talent development has proven to be a complex journey, affected by a multitude of different factors surrounding an individual. To navigate this tricky road the fostering of intrinsic motivation is crucial, which can be affected by the player's environment. This study thus set out to explore contextual strengths and weaknesses of a football talent development environment (TDE) in Stockholm with a link to motivational theories. A qualitative approach was used in the form of a semi- structured interview guide. Three players from a team situated in Stockholm were interviewed regarding the perceived quality of their TDE. An inductive analysis revealed contextual strength regarding a holistic view of the player and a development of resilience, and potential weakness regarding development of focus. Overall the study provided insights in contextual strength and weakness in a Stockholm situated football TDE. 

Abstract [sv]

Talangutveckling har visat sig vara en komplex resa, påverkad av en mängd olika faktorer som omger en individ. För att navigera denna knepiga väg är fostran av en inre motivation av stor betydelse, som kan påverkas av individens utvecklingsmiljö. Denna studie syftade därför till att utforska kontextuella styrkor och svagheter hos en fotbollstalang utvecklingsmiljö (TDE) i Stockholm genom motivationsteorier. En kvalitativ ansats användes i form av en semistrukturerad intervjuguide. Tre spelare från ett lag beläget i Stockholm intervjuades angående den upplevda kvaliteten på sin TDE. En induktiv analys avslöjade kontextuell styrka gällande en holistisk syn på spelaren och utvecklingen av motståndskraft, samt potentiell svaghet gällande utvecklingen av fokus. Övergripande sett gav studien insikter om kontextuell styrka och svaghet i en Stockholmsbaserad utvecklingsmiljö.
