Abstract

The constant practice of a sport influences the personality, molding it, modifying it and enhancing its traits. Differences in personality have been described according to the gender of birth of individuals.  Character is defined as the self-concept and individual differences in goals and values guiding the individual's life experiences and are influenced by sociocultural learning. In this trait, social environment and the zone in which one lives influence the individual’s development and the way to interact in sports as a function of their gender. The purpose of this research is describing and comparing personality and character dimensions of male and female practicing contact sports, as well as sedentary people of both sexes. One hundred two people participated in the study. Each participant was individually assessed with the Temperament and Character Inventory. The results suggest that athletes scored higher in self-directedness. In cooperativeness, athletes and men in the controlling group, scored higher than women did. In self-transcendence, female athletes outperformed the control groups. In addition, differences were found in character sub dimensions between the groups. In conclusion, gender is an important variable to take into account in the character trait.
