abstract = {Futsal is a sport known and practiced by millions of people around the world. However, there are few scientific studies
about distinct facets of personality associated with impulsive behavior, which can help coaches to optimize their sport
performance.  e aim of this study was to analyze the variables related to impulsivity in elite futsal players, based on their
playing position. In this study participated 111 elite futsal players (age M = 25.44, DT = 4.62) of the National Futsal League
in the 2014/2015 season.  e UPPS-P impulsivity questionnaire adapted was used and an ANOVA test was performed
taking into account the playing position (goalkeepers, defenders, wings and wing-defenders, pivots and wing-pivots and
universal).  e results showed a lower score in the impulsivity traits, specifically in the sensation seeking dimension, in
those players with a defensive role, and particularly in the goalkeepers compared with the universals (p <.05). In addition,
a profile of greater general impulsivity is observed in the pivots, wing-pivots and universals. In conclusion, this study has
shown the existence of certain di!erentiated profiles of impulsivity among the futsal players according to their role. Al-
though we must be cautious expecting the confirmation of future studies, these findings highlighted the convenience of
considering personality traits as predictors of performance in talent detection and development programs in this sport.},
