Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: The study was designed to analyze the preferred coaching leadership styles in Division III Athletics. Participants were limited to male (n=104) and female (n=118) soccer, basketball, cross-country, and swimming/diving student-athletes and coaches (n=15). The Leadership Scale for Sport (LSS; Chelladurai & Saleh, 1980) was distributed to both athletes and coaches. Athletes were distributed the preferred version of the LSS, and coaches were distributed the perceived version of the LSS. Chelladurai (1984) suggested subtracting each individual athlete's score from the corresponding coach's score, this produced a single discrepancy score for each coach-athlete dyad. Using the discrepancy score, 5 2 X 2 Independent Groups ANOVAS were used to analyze if differences existed between male and female individual and team sport student-athletes. In the analysis of the Democratic Leadership subscale of the LSS (Chelladurai & Saleh, 1980), no significant interaction was found. For the Autocratic Leadership, Positive Feedback, Social Support, and Training and Instruction subscales of the IJSS (Chelladurai & Saleh, 1980), significant interactions were found between gender and sport type for the discrepancy score of each coach-athlete dyad.

This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using a quantitative approach, the researcher investigated the attitudes of National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III (D3) men’s (n = 69) and women’s (n = 53) sports student-athletes (SAs). This study aimed to examine the current attitudes of male, female, and non-binary NCAA D3 SAs towards male, female, and non-binary strength and conditioning coaches (SCCs). Attitudes were assessed for 121 participants via a 12- question modified Attitudes of Athletes Toward Male versus Female Coaches Questionnaire (AAMFC-Q; Magnusen & Rhea, 2009) consisting of Likert-scaled questions ranking feelings towards a described, gendered SCC. The researcher determined there to be no significant interactions between gendered sport and condition, suggesting that previously noted SCC gender preferences no longer prevail in D3 athletics. However, via main effects significant differences between gendered sport was noted when participants were prompted with considering how they would feel about the hypothetical coach’s ability to motivate and encourage them. Additionally, significant differences between conditions were noted in items examining the participants’ ability to take punishment from the hypothetical coach and, when directly asked if they preferred the gender of the described coach. The findings of the present study are pertinent to practitioners and administrators working with SCCs and SAs of varying gender identities. Professionals involved in the strength and conditioning training of D3 student-athletes can use the results of the current study to inform hiring decisions, when educating staff and athletes, and to better understand the athletes' feelings towards SCCs. Additionally, involved personnel should consider this evidence of the prevailing existence of hegemonic masculinity in athletics and evaluate how they may work to dissuade the continuance of such.

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.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although post-Title IX sport participation rates for girls and women have skyrocketed, the percentages of women in sport leadership roles have plummeted. Today, women hold only 44% of head coaching positions in women's intercollegiate athletics, compared with over 90% before the passage of Title IX. Few studies have examined how the perceptions of prospective coaches, and specifically female student-athletes, may impact this downward trend. The purpose of this study is to examine the impact of specific contextual factors (i.e., coach gender, female coaching role models, and perceived barriers) on coaching self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and career interest in coaching using social cognitive career theory as the theoretical framework. Participants were 205 predominantly White, heterosexual female student-athletes. Path analysis indicated that both contextual supports and barriers predicted coaching self-efficacy and that coaching self-efficacy predicted outcome expectations. Additionally, career interest in coaching was predicted by coaching self-efficacy, outcome expectations, and contextual supports and barriers. Post hoc model modifications indicated that a model portraying barriers and supports as both directly and indirectly (through their impact on self-efficacy) linked to career interest in coaching produced a better fit to the data than a model specifying only an indirect link to interest. Practical implications are discussed, as well as suggestions for further research in this relatively unexplored area of inquiry.
Download or read book An Examination of Preferred Coaching Behavors as Predicted by Athlete Gender Race and Playing Time written by Glenn Parrish Burdette and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author's abstract: The Multidimensional Model for Sport Leadership (MML) (Chelladurai, 1980) states that athlete performance and satisfaction are functions of the congruency between the preferred leadership of student-athletes, the required behavior of the coach as dictated by the situation, and the actual behavior of the coach. The model was developed nearly 30 years ago and while research outside of sport has indicated that leadership preferences have changed with generations, the MML is still the most widely accepted model for sport leadership. As such, research in sport should examine how appropriate the model is to todays athletic culture. Gender, one member characteristic, has been researched considerably, with conflicting results, while race has been largely ignored with preferential leadership. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine what extent the preferred coaching behaviors reported by student athletes vary based on race, gender, and playing time and measure the congruency of those preferences with the actual coaching behaviors reported by coaches. NCAA Division-I student-athletes (n = 140) and head coaches (n = 14) in Baseball, Mens and Womens Basketball, Mens and Womens Soccer, Softball, and Volleyball were surveyed using the Revised Leadership Scale for Sport (RLSS). Using multiple regression analysis, the author attempted to predict what coaching behaviors student-athletes preferred based on student-athlete gender, race, and playing time. None of the regression models were significant, indicating a lack of variance between the predictor groups. Also, the current data revealed that student-athletes reported a significantly higher means in the Democratic Behavior and Situational Consideration subscales than head coaches, indicating a degree of incompatibility between student-athlete preference and actual coaching behaviors. A revision of the RLSS might yield more significant and meaningful results, as two of the subscales displayed low levels of internal consistency.

Book excerpt: Abstract: The researcher examined the perceptions fall sport coaches at NCAA Division III institutions in the Northeast region of the United States (N = 449) had toward current and desired evaluations. Gender, sport types, and years of coaching experience with regard to the importance of coaching responsibilities, the number of times a coach is evaluated, and satisfaction levels were explored. No significant difference (p ~ .05) was found between the actual and desired ratings of the importance of the coaching responsibilities in 5 of the 14 responsibilities. According to coaches, the other 9 coaching responsibilities should be significantly (p
