Abstract

The purpose of this study was to develop and provide initial validation of a scale designed to identify the evaluation and selection criteria of 585 coaches selected to work in 237 amateur sports clubs in Attica, Greece. The development of the scale was based on the job analysis of coaching and the review of the evaluation of coaching performance. The criterion of KMO (.934) and Bartlett’s test of Sphericity test (13338.366, df 406, p < .00001) confirmed that the requirements for factor analysis were met. EFA revealed a scale of 29 items and identified six (6) factors interpreting the 73.396% of the overall variance: (1) results of coaching on athletes, (2) personal achievements of the coach, (3) design and implementation of coaching (4) competition management (5) psychological support of the athletes and (6) commitment to the club. CFA was used to test the accuracy of the construct revealed by EFA. The findings of this study support the factorial structure of the scale and its psychometric qualities in a Greek sample suggesting that the scale is valid for identifying the evaluation and selection criteria employed from amateur sports clubs to select their coaches.

制定和验证教练员评价和遴选标准量表

本研究的目的是制定一个量表并对其进行初步验证，该量表旨在确定希腊阿提卡237家业余体育俱乐部选拔的585名教练的评价和选拔标准。量表的开发基于教练工作分析和教练绩效评估审查。KMO 标准（.934）和巴特利特分散性检验标准（13338.366，df 406，p < .00001）证实量表符合因子分析的要求。EFA 显示了一个包含 29 个项目的量表，并确定了六个（6）因子，解释了 73.396% 的总体方差：（1）教练对运动员的结果；（2）教练的个人成就；（3）教练的设计和实施；（4）比赛管理；（5）运动员的心理支持；（6）对俱乐部的承诺。采用 CFA 检验了 EFA 所揭示的构念的准确性。本研究的结果支持量表的因子结构及其在希腊样本中的心理测量质量，表明该量表对于确定业余体育俱乐部在选择教练时所采用的评估和选择标准是有效的。
