This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was designed to determine whether there is a relationship between specific coaching leadership styles and athlete intrinsic motivation within Division III college baseball and softball players. In addition, the study also aimed to see what male and female student-athletes prefer in their coaching leadership behaviors. The study consisted of 21 (N=21) people, 19 student-athletes between 18-21 and two coaches. The Leadership Scale for Sport (LSS) and Sport Motivation Scale-II (SMS-II) were both utilized in order to determine the relationships. Results showed there is no significant relationship between leadership styles of coaches and athlete intrinsic motivation. In addition, results show that male student-athletes prefer training & instruction and female student-athletes prefer positive feedback in their coaches’ leadership behaviors. Future studies could look into the relationship of leadership styles and athlete intrinsic motivation in DI and DII athletes. A larger sample size of both coaches and many different team sports are two areas to be also further examined.

Download or read book The Effect of Coach Expectations on Female Athletes Motivation to Play written by Megan Matthews Buning and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This concurrent, embedded mixed methods study used predominantly quantitative analyses to examine coach expectations and behaviors on female athletes' intrinsic motivation to play softball. Qualitative methods in the form of structured, open-ended questions were used to enhance the data by examining athletes' perceptions of coaching behavior and changes in motivation and competence levels. A cluster sampling technique was used to randomly select 20 Division I softball teams competing in the United States. The resulting quantitative participant sample included 174 female collegiate athletes ranging in age from 18-22 years old, and 20 male and female head coach participants ranging in age from 24-60 plus years. Qualitative procedures involved inductive content analysis of interview responses from 41 female collegiate softball athletes. A structured interview protocol was followed to answer the research questions of how do female athletes' perceive head coaches affect intrinsic motivation to play softball for their current team, and specifically, what types of coaching behaviors do athletes perceive to alter their motivation to play softball? Results of this study indicate coaches do form expectations about athletes' performance ability, and coaching behaviors differed between expectancy groups. Competence and motivation levels remained constant over the course of the study, but expectancy groups were motivated differently. Low expectancy athletes were more extrinsically motivated, and showed trends of higher levels of amotivation than high and average expectancy athletes. High expectancy athletes showed trends indicating more intrinsic motivation overall. Low expectancy athletes perceived more ignoring, or non-rewarding, behaviors than other athletes. Athletes experienced a decrease in encouragement and corrective instruction from pre- to post-study. Overall, athletes reported aspects of the perceived coach-athlete relationship affected competence and motivation the most. Relationships characterized by open, direct, clear communication were the biggest positive influence on motivation and competence. Other coach strategies including emphasis of athlete's personal best, actions display confidence in the athlete's performance ability, and encouragement after performance attempts emerged as important factors enhancing athlete self-perception variables. Relationships characterized by unclear or no communication had the biggest negative influence on motivation and competence.

Download or read book An Examination of Factors that Impact the Choices of Female Athletes in Pursuit of a Career in Collegiate Sports Leadership written by Gloria Lynn Bradley and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract The Social Cognitive Career Theory was applied to examine how the desire to coach or administrate are impacted by self-efficacy, occupational valence, perceived hindrance, and role model influence. This study was conducted to address the underrepresentation of females in collegiate sports leadership positions. The study examined if being coached by males or if males in leadership positions is preferred. Women coach less than half, (40.2%) of women0́9s sports and women account for 19.6% percent of administrators in college athletic departments. Hypothetically, the results of this study will support and enhance the NCAA college sports model by revealing quantitative data that provide a foundation for understanding the problems and identifying key factors important to the leadership development of female student-athletes. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, MANOVAs, and path analysis. Everhart and Chelladurai (1998) stated that female athletes preferred male coaches and that female athletes that had male coaches were more likely to perceive discrimination as a barrier. The study0́9s finding is that collegiate female student-athletes had a high perception of female coaches and female administrators and a preference for female coaches.

Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: The purpose of the current study was to examine the difference in strength and conditioning coaching style effects on motivation of Division II and Division III football athletes. Participants {N = 61) were National Collegiate Athletics Association (NCAA) Division II (n = 30) or Division III (n = 31) football athletes with an average of 2.77 years (SD = 1.04) with the strength and conditioning coach. Participants completed questionnaires assessing coaching style (Leadership Scale for Sport) and motivation (Sport Motivation Scale-6). All questionnaires used were completed prior to or following a workout with the strength and conditioning coach. A significant difference (p .05) was found between Division II and Division III coaching styles in training and instruction and social support. A significant difference (p .05) was also found between Division II and Division III athlete motivation in external regulation, introjected regulation, integrated regulation, and intrinsic motivation. No significant differences (p .05) were found between Division II and Division III coaching styles in democratic behavior, autocratic behavior, and positive feedback. No significant differences (p .05) were found between Division II and Division III football athlete motivation in amotivation and identified regulation. The current findings demonstrate the difference that exists between Division II and Division III strength and conditioning coaching style as well as athlete motivation.
