- Life satisfaction in young footballers: The contribution of basic needs satisfaction and passionPublication . Braz, Diogo Salgado; Gouveia, Élvio R; Teixeira, Diogo S; Sarmento, Hugo; Monteiro, DiogoThe present study was grounded in Self-Determination Theory and the Dualistic Model of Passion. The objective of the study was to examine the relationships between basic psychological need satisfaction, passion (harmonious and obsessive), and life satisfaction in youth football players. The sample comprised 403 male youth football players aged 13 to 17 years who completed validated self-report measures assessing autonomy, competence, relatedness, passion for football, and global life satisfaction. The structural equation modeling approach was employed to assess direct and indirect associations among variables, as well as to ascertain invariance of the model across age groups. The results of the study indicated that the satisfaction of basic psychological needs was associated with a propensity toward harmonious passion, while concurrently demonstrating an inverse relationship with obsessive passion. The harmonious passion–life satisfaction relationship was found to be positive, while the obsessive passion–life satisfaction relationship was found to be negative. The present study examined the relationship between need satisfaction and life satisfaction, with the hypothesis that passion would mediate this relationship. It was predicted that the way players internalize their motivation would play a central role in translating sport experiences into broader well-being. The structural model demonstrated invariance across age groups, thereby suggesting developmental robustness of these motivational processes throughout adolescence. These findings underscore the significance of need-supportive environments in youth football, which are instrumental in fostering adaptive forms of passion and promoting long-term psychological well-being.
- Process Mining for IS Project Management: A Systematic Literature ReviewPublication . Pedrosa, Joana; Magalhães, Luis Gonzaga; Martinho, RicardoRecently, process mining techniques have been used to discover, analyze, and improve business processes' performance, including project management processes conducted in IS projects. In this literature review, 383 documents were found and 59 were selected as relevant in the use of process mining for project management. These works were categorized according to the eight project performance domains presented by the Project Management Body of Knowledge. Approximately 50% were associated with the development approach and life cycle domain, in contrast to only 3% associated with the stakeholder domain. In addition to this review, other reviews were identified that explored the same theme but with an emphasis on agile software development. The process mining discovery techniques were the most applied in this context. The findings from the review suggested a gap in the literature regarding the correlation between process mining and IS project success.
