This book was released on 1995 with total page 820 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to compare the attitudes of faculty at: (1) Division I NCAA and NAIA institutions, (2) Division I and II NAIA institutions on selected issues related to intercollegiate athletics, and (3) Division I NCAA and NAIA institutions toward selected issues related to intercollegiate athletics when demographics variables are considered. The survey instrument included forty statements and used a five-point Likert scale with possible responses of strongly agree, agree, undecided, disagree and strongly disagree. The population was resident, full-time faculty members. The sample was selected from the population using random techniques. The survey instrument which included demographic information, was sent to the selected faculty from the NCAA Division I (N = 656) and the NAIA (N = 632). The problem was to determine if there were significant differences between the attitudes of the faculties. Hypothesis I stated there was a significant difference between the NCAA Division I and NAIA faculty in their attitudes toward intercollegiate athletics. Hypothesis II stated there was a significant difference between the NAIA Division I and II faculty members in their attitudes toward intercollegiate athletics. Hypothesis III stated there was a significant difference between NCAA Division I and NAIA faculty in their attitudes toward intercollegiate athletics when demographic information is concerned. The statistical test used was Chi-Square with a.05 alpha level. NCAA Division I faculty were more critical of intercollegiate athletics than NAIA faculty on most issues. They were more suspicious about the academic integrity of student athletes and the progress of gender equity. Both NCAA Division I and NAIA faculties were in agreement that intercollegiate athletics is valuable to student athletes and their institutions. There was little difference between the attitude of NAIA Division I and NAIA Division II faculty members. The main conclusion was that there is a significant difference between NCAA Division I and NAIA faculty attitudes. The faculty at NCAA institutions tended to be more critical of intercollegiate athletics.

This book was released on 1973 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated the attitudes of faculty members toward the role of intercollegiate athletics in selected institutions of higher education. The perceptions of the faculty members were collected by means of a questionnaire comprised of three sections: Section 1 requested demographic data; Section 2 requested responses to forty-eight items relating to intercollegiate athletics, and Section 3 requested additional comments, A five-point Likert scale containing five response categories including strongly agree, agree, undecided, disagree, and strongly disagree was utilized in Section 2. The forty-eight items included in the questionnaire were formulated primarily through the literature review, and from discussions with leading experts in the field. These items were divided into one of the five following topic areas: policies and policy determination, financial considerations, coaching staff, current trends, and philosophical considerations. The colleges and universities used in the study were chosen on a random basis from within the Big-Ten Athletic Conference, the MidAmerican Athletic Conference, and The Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association. These Conferences were selected on the basis of the diverse range in enrollments and athletic philosophies of the member institutions as well as the geographic proximity. Over 1,000 questionnaires were sent to randomly selected full-time faculty members at the selected colleges and universities, with a return of slightly better than 51%. Analysis of the data included a total frequency count for each item as well as an item mean. A one-way analysis of variance was computed to test for significant differences between the mean responses of faculty member's at institutions within one conference when compared to the mean responses of those faculty members at institutions within the other two conferences. When the one-way analysis of variance indicated significant differences between the three groups beyond the .05 level, the T-method developed by Tukey was utilized to determine if there were significant differences between all of the means. The findings of the study indicate that intercollegiate athletics appear to be an integral part of the total educational program at the college and university level. However, it is apparent from the data that there is need for constant evaluation and control of intercollegiate athletic programs to maintain a philosophy of athletics consistent with educational goals. The "big-buslness" aura of intercollegiate athletics present in many institutions of higher education was seen as highly undesirable. A reduced emphasis on intercollegiate athletics and an increased emphasis on intramural programs was stressed

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethics and College Sports is a careful analysis of the root problems in intercollegiate athletics in American universities. It examines the prevalent myths that are regularly used to justify the inclusion of intercollegiate athletics, and all of the abuses and scandals it has brought to university campuses, from a moral perspective. In this book, the myths that amateurism is morally desirable, that sports brings good moral character, and that the elite sports programs raise significant sums of money to support university budgets are dissected. The actual impact of the movement to provide gender equity in athletics programs on campus is discussed and a defensible justification for intercollegiate athletics is offered.

Book excerpt: Research has found that coaches, administrators, and athletes at NCAA institutions believe that distributing resources equally or based on need were the most fair distribution methods. The current study builds on these findings by examining the views of fairness among college sport management students in distribution and retribution scenarios. The nine allocation principles listed for each scenario were (a) equality of treatment, (b) equality of opportunity, and (c) equality of results; equity based on (d) effort, (e) productivity, (f) revenue production, (g) spectator appeal, (h) ability; and (i) need. In each distributive scenario, subjects were asked to rate the fairness of each allocation principle and to chose one of the nine principles to implement. The participants' responses were analyzed by gender, student classification (undergraduate or graduate), their institution's NCAA division, and whether or not they had previously examined distributive justice. Need and equality of treatment were the highest rated principles overall, with equity based on revenue production generally rated third highest. These three principles were also overwhelmingly selected by subjects for implementation in each scenario. Equality of opportunity was rated the most unfair principle by all groups in the study. When analyzed by group membership the results indicated that women and Division III respondents favored equality based principles, while males showed support for equity based principles, particularly revenue production. Analysis of NCAA expense reports illustrate a lack of implementation of the equality of treatment and need based principles and an adherence to equity based on revenue production and spectator appeal (Mahoney & Pastore, 1998). In light of those reports, the results of this study show that there may be theoretical implications connected with certain principles. Although rated most fair, need and equality of treatment are often overlooked in real allocation situations and are more idealistic principles. Equity principles, particularly based on revenue production, are a more realistic choice for implementation and are selected more frequently within an athletic department in real allocation situations.
