ABSTRACT

The ability to self-regulate is considered an essential skill for negotiating twenty-first-century challenges. However, despite the progress made in understanding self-regulation, its application in certain areas remains scarce. To remedy this situation, this paper intends to examine the relationship between coaching and self-regulation. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 coaches in order to gather information regarding the phases of coaching, the critical elements concerning its implementation, and the changes that are perceived in clients. The findings indicated that coaching and self-regulation share elements, such as certain constituent phases, a focus on goal-achievement, and an interest in personal development and, consequently, in people’s well-being. This study concludes that both processes could benefit from each other through sharing their theoretical bases and the structure of their respective practical interventions.

摘要

自我调节的能力被认为是应对 21 世纪挑战的一项基本技能。然而，尽管在理解自我调节方面取得了进展，但其在某些领域的应用仍然很少。为了纠正这种情况，本文打算研究教练和自我调节之间的关系。对 15 位教练进行了半结构化访谈，以收集有关教练阶段、实施的关键要素以及客户感知到的变化的信息。研究结果表明，教练和自我调节具有共同的要素，例如某些组成阶段、对目标实现的关注以及对个人发展的兴趣，从而对人们的福祉感兴趣。
