Abstract: The manner in which subjective goals, motivation and self-esteem are formed among young people may vary and this could be a result of individual's cultural perspective.Therefore, examining certain psychological issues according to the cultural features of athletes appears to be essential.The aim of this paper was to examine if there were any differences between young male basketball players (13 to 17 years old) from Turkey and Montenegro regarding their goal orientations and self-esteem.The results showed that Turkish basketball players had higher ego orientation (Means: 3.58-3.03)and general self-esteem (Means: 3.14-2.95)scores than Montenegrin players (p<.05).However, Montenegrin players had higher task orientation scores (Means: 3.96-4.44).The results supported the hypothesis that cultural values affect young basketball players' goal orientations and self-esteem.It could be suggested for further research that it might be interesting to investigate the differences and similarities with a different sample.
