Team athletes were expected to show more functional resources than those in combat or endurance sports. Athletes with functional responses of impulsivity and perfectionism showed higher perceived self-competence. Athletes with more reflective thoughts, more careful planning and generally less sensitive to rewards and behaviors were more selfregulated and planned (functional impulsivity) and showed more moderate relationships between the most dysfunctional perfectionist beliefs and self-competence. In addition, perfectionism seems to be useful to the striver athletes that want to be the best, and they are focused on and committed to future goals and performance and selfimprovement. It is important for coaches and athletes to understand how the processes of self-regulation (impulsivity) and self-knowledge (perfectionism) could be formed to try to offer better opportunities for building psychological resources that enhance high-performance mental abilities.}, publisher = {Frontiers in Media}, keywords = {Emotional stability}, keywords = {Functional perfectionism}, keywords = {Young athletes}, keywords = {Sport competition}, keywords = {Impulsiveness}, title = {Impulsiveness and Cognitive Patterns.
