Abstract

Since sport extends well beyond the routine of practice and competition and leads to the development of skills that affect other areas of life, my study explored whether girl athletes experience greater voice empowerment as a result of playing sport. The term voice empowerment is unique to traditional leadership and character programming; it emerged from recent scholarship in the fields of education, sport, and psychology. In this study, 30 Ethiopian girl athletes aged 13 to 18 completed a 24-item questionnaire that focused on the constructs of sport, voice, and gender equity. My findings suggest that sport along with emotional and academic support, coupled with an effective life skills program, does affect voice empowerment.

埃塞俄比亚女运动员通过体育运动发声赋权

由于体育运动远远超出了常规的练习和比赛，并导致影响生活其他领域的技能发展，我的研究探讨了女运动员是否因为参加体育运动而获得了更大的发言权。“声音授权”一词是传统领导力和角色编程所特有的;它起源于最近在教育、体育和心理学领域的学术研究。在这项研究中，30名年龄在13至18岁之间的埃塞俄比亚女运动员完成了一份24项问卷调查，重点关注体育、声音和性别平等的构建。我的研究结果表明，体育运动加上情感和学术支持，再加上有效的生活技能课程，确实会影响发声能力。
