Download or read book Female Athletes Perceptions of Coach and Parent Feedback written by Kristen L. Corrette and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feedback is considered an essential function of skill learning and yet previous research often reports findings without controlling for learners background information, skill level, and perceptions of instruction. This study investigated child to adolescent female athletes' perceptions of coach and parent feedback in response to good and poor soccer play, particularly in relation to skill level and age. Coaches assessed skill and athletes completed questionnaires measuring the perceived frequency of multiple types of feedback responses from coaches and parents including different forms of praise and criticism. 63 female club level soccer players, 10 to 17 years old and 4 head coaches participated in the study. Multivariate analysis revealed that coach's praise and criticism was positively correlated to age and athlete initiated communication with coaches was negatively correlated to age. No correlations were found between athletic skill level and perceived feedback. These correlations indicate that age may affect how learners form their perceptions of instruction.

Download or read book The Young Athlete written by Helge Hebestreit and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-30 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This essential new volume in the Encyclopaedia of Sports Medicine series, published under the auspices of the International Olympic Committee, provides a thorough overview of the unique physiologic characteristics, responsiveness to training, and possible health hazards involved in the training, coaching, and medical care of young athletes. Intense involvement in competitive sports often begins during childhood. During adolescence, many athletes reach their peak performance and some may participate in World Championships and Olympic Games at a relatively young age. The Young Athlete presents the available information relevant to exercise and training in youth, reviewed and summarized by authors who are recognized as leaders in their respective fields. The Young Athlete is subdivided into seven parts covering: the physiologic bases of physical performance in view of growth and development; trainability and the consequences of a high level of physical activity during childhood and adolescence for future health; the epidemiology of injuries, their prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation; non-orthopedic health concerns including the pre-participation examination; psychosocial issues relevant to young athletes; diseases relevant to child and adolescent athletes; the methodology relevant to the assessment of young athletes. This valuable reference summarizes a large database of information from thousands of studies and is especially relevant to sports physicians, pediatricians, general practitioners, physical therapists, dietitians, coaches, students, and researchers in the exercise sciences.

Book excerpt: Coaching is an increasingly important area of sports science courses, and this text provides accessible and up-to-date coverage of this key topic. Modern coaches need to be applied scientists who keep abreast of research and are able to apply a multidisciplinary understanding to their practice. The book therefore examines coaching in terms of biomechanics, physiology and psychology, as well as perennial issues such as athlete motivation, nutrition, design of training programmes, talent identification, monitoring and ethics. Written by an author who combines academic expertise with high-level practical experience, the book successfully links theory with case studies.

Download or read book Mixed Methods Research in the Movement Sciences written by Oleguer Camerino and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed methods research techniques, combining both quantitative and qualitative elements, have become well established throughout the social, behavioural and natural sciences. This is the first book to focus on the application of mixed methods research in the movement sciences, specifically in sport, physical education and dance. Researchers and practitioners in each of these fields are concerned with the study of habitual behaviour in naturalistic contexts, and of the concurrent and sequential nature of events and states, precisely the kind of work that multi-method research design can help illuminate. The book is arranged into four sections. The first provides a thorough overview of mixed methods procedures and research design, and summarizes their applicability to the movement sciences. The remaining sections then offer detailed case studies of mixed methods research in team and individual sports (analyzing hidden patterns of play and optimising technique); kinesics and dance (analyzing motor skills behaviour in childhood, and the complexity of motor responses in dance); and physical education (detecting interaction patterns in group situations, and optimizing non-verbal communication by teachers and sports coaches). Mixed Methods Research in the Movement Sciences offers an important new tool for researchers and helps to close the gap between the analysis of expert performance and our understanding of the general principles of movement science. It is important reading for any student, researcher or professional with an interest in motor control, sport and dance pedagogy, coaching, performance analysis or decision-making in sport.

Download or read book Coaching Behaviors and Self efficacy Levels of Youth Sport Soccer Athletes written by Elizabeth C. O'Neill and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The investigation was designed to analyze coaching behaviors and gender of athletes in reference to self-efficacy levels of youth soccer athletes. Youth soccer coaches (N = 7) were observed during three practice sessions using the Coaching Behavior Assessment System (CBAS; Smith, Smoll, & Hunt, 1977). A total of 31 female and 36 male youth soccer athletes, ages 7 to 13, completed the Perceived Soccer Competence Scale (PSCS; Feltz & Brown, 1984). No significant (p> .05) linear relationships were found between positive or negative subscales of the CBAS (Smith et al., 1977) with regard to scores of athletes on the PSCS (Feltz & Brown, 1984). Also, two 2 x 2 ANOVAs were conducted examining coach rank, for positive and negative behaviors, and gender to PSCS (Feltz & Brown, 1984) scores. Coaches were ranked based on the degree to which they utilized positive and negative feedback. No significant interactions or main effect differences were found for either of the 2 x 2 ANOVAs. The perceived soccer competence scores of athletes were similar despite playing for coaches who utilized either positive or negative feedback. Perceived soccer competence was similar for both males and females. In the future it is suggested that research in youth sport in the natural setting, examine efficacy of athletes who are repeatedly exposed to negative or positive coaching.
Download or read book An Examination of how Coaching Behavior Influences Athlete s Sport confidence and Athlete s Perceived Competence in Their Coach written by Christine Andrea Young and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine athletes' sport-confidence and perceptions of coaching competence following a performance mistake in which the coach removes the athlete from the game or leaves the athlete in the game. A total of 68 participants, both males and females, from 18 to 24 years old, with at least one year of high school varsity basketball experience read a scenario in which they were either taken out of the game or left in the game after a mistake. Results indicated that being taken out of the game did not lower athletes' sport-confidence, nor did their confidence differ from those that remained in the game. Those taken out of the game did report lower perceptions of the coach's competence. Future research should focus on different types of sports, athletes who consistently encounter this situation, and the type of feedback given by their coach.
