In total, 605 Canadian university athletes (<i>M<sub>age</sub></i> = 20.09 <i>SD</i> = 1.74) completed the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire, the University Sport Experience Survey, and the Coach-Athlete Relationship Questionnaire. Mediation analyses assessed the explanatory role of athletes' perceived coach-athlete relationship in associations between coaches' leadership behaviors and athletes' reports of personal developmental outcomes and negative experiences. The coach-athlete relationship was positively associated with positive development outcomes in university athletes (i.e. initiative, basic skills, interpersonal relationships, teamwork and social skills, and adult network and social capital) and inversely associated with negative experiences (i.e. stress, negative peer interactions, social exclusion, and negative leadership). Findings only partially supported the assertion that transformational leadership promotes positive development and reduces negative experiences by enhancing the coach-athlete relationship. The results support benefits of transformational coaching when targeting positive development, similar to youth sport, but suggest the coach-athlete relationship has little explanatory value when examining associations between coach leadership and positive development outcomes in university sport. Instead, the coach-athlete relationship does help account for the mitigation of negative experiences in the university sport context.</p>","PeriodicalId":94191,"journal":{"name":"Research quarterly for exercise and sport","volume":" ","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2025-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145194276","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To examine the co-adaptive relationships framing players' actions in their ecological niche, the present study employed a crossover design with repeated measures to compare the players' transactions within 11 vs. 11 training games across four different field dimensions (from official size to a small-sided game).

When field size was reduced, the convex hull dimension significantly decreased. Additionally, relative field occupancy and distance to nearest opponent exhibited significant changes, especially when contrasted with performance transactions emerging on the official size field. These observations underline the essential functional relationship between the playing field dimension and emergent player actions. Such findings underscore the need for soccer coaches and training designers to integrate the specificity of field dimension scaling in training designs to represent competitive performance contexts.
