Resumen:
The self-efficacy on sport performance has been a widely
studied topic, but without reaching a consensus yet.
Professionals in sports psychology highlight the importance
of understanding the psychological state of the athlete,
including their level of confidence and attitude to challenges
to perform adequately in their discipline. For this reason,
the objective of the study is to analyze the existing studies
on the influence of self-efficacy on sport performance. The
review was performed under the PRISMA methodology,
304 articles were identified and analyzed under the criteria
of eligibility and methodological quality by the AXIS tool;
finally, 10 articles were included. The results mostly indicate
that self-efficacy is present in different sports, it is an
element of impact, which will predict sporting behavior
and consequently its success. Performance measures differ
in each discipline, according to the particularity of each
sport. Self-efficacy can be part of an explicative model of
the athlete’s personality. The information presented allows
for greater clarity in the theories of response to the sports
phenomenon and to contribute to the design of intervention
tools that strengthen the appropriate psychological
processes. Results found shouldn´t be generalized, due
to the limitations in the performance measurement, other
variables to be considered and the virtues of each discipline
