Although previous studies have uncovered various factors to understand sport coaches’ life, the role of positive emotions toward coaching experience and their impacts on behavioral and psychological outcomes remain unknown. As such, the purpose of this study was to examine the influence of sport coaches’ positive emotions on their work satisfaction and task performance and further measure the factors that would facilitate the understanding of sport coaches’ well-being. A total of 519 responses were collected from sport coaches in Singapore. Results showed that all the hypothesized relationships were significant, highlighting work satisfaction to play a mediating role in the relationship between positive emotions and task performance and between positive emotions and well-being. The findings of this study contribute to the advancement of the theoretical knowledge on the role of positive emotions in the context of sport management and provide valuable practical implications for sport organizations.

尽管之前的研究已经揭示了了解体育教练生活的各种因素，但积极情绪对教练体验的作用及其对行为和心理结果的影响仍然未知。因此，本研究的目的是检验体育教练的积极情绪对其工作满意度和任务绩效的影响，并进一步衡量有助于了解体育教练幸福感的因素。总共从新加坡的体育教练那里收集了 519 份回复。结果表明，所有假设关系均显着，突出工作满意度在积极情绪与任务绩效之间以及积极情绪与幸福感之间的关系中起中介作用。
