Abstract

The research project "Doping among Czech Adolescents: Prevalence, Correlates and Experience" was designed to obtain data related to doping abuse among Czech adolescents involved in both competitive and recreational sports. The main project objective was to discover which psychosocial phenomena are important in adolescent doping.

These were primarily motivational factors (motivational orientation, self-determination) among adolescents with a tendency to use doping, or those already using it, and about the attitudes of this population to doping in sport.
