摘要

目的基于社会认同与心理健康和幸福相关的基本原理,我们旨在了解大学俱乐部运动队中的社会联系和群体结构与学生的社会认同感之间的关系:我们从 35 支完整的同性大学俱乐部运动队中抽取了 852 名学生运动员。通过对队友报告的彼此联系(即运动之外的时间和队友友谊)进行社会网络分析,我们计算了:离度中心性(即自我报告的与队友的联系)、非离度中心性(即来自他人的提名)和群体密度。通过拟合多层次模型,检验了缺度中心性、内度中心性和团体层面的团队密度对运动员社会认同强度的相对影响:结果:外度中心性、内度中心性和团队密度都与运动员对其运动队的社会认同强度呈正相关。通过对模型结果进行逐步分析,发现社会联系提名(即内度)与社会认同的关系超出了自我报告的外度中心性的影响。此外,在考虑了个人层面的中心性影响后,团队层面的密度与社会认同有显著关系:体育运动是参与者与同龄人建立社会联系的领域,而体育群体则是社会认同的重要来源。目前的研究结果表明,与队友有更多社会联系的运动员可能会形成更强的社会认同感。除了对研究小群体的社会认同方法的理论贡献外,本研究还强调了使用社会网络方法研究小群体的实用性。

Network centrality, group density, and strength of social identification in college club sport teams.

Objective: With the underlying rationale that social identification is related to psychological health and well-being, we aimed to understand how social connections and group structure within college club sport teams relate to students' perceptions of social identification.

Method: We sampled 852 student-athletes from 35 intact same-sex college club sport teams. Using social network analyses derived from teammates' reports of connections with one another (i.e., time spent outside of sport, and teammate friendships), we computed: outdegree centrality (i.e., self-reported connections with teammates), indegree centrality (i.e., nominations from others), and group-level density. Multilevel models were fit to test the relative effects of outdegree centrality, indegree centrality, and group-level team density on athletes' social identification strength.

Results: Outdegree centrality, indegree centrality, and team density were all positively related to the strength of athletes' social identification with their sport team. Examining model results step-by-step, incoming nominations of social connections (i.e., indegree) were associated with social identification beyond the effects of self-reported outdegree centrality. Furthermore, team-level density was significantly related to social identification after accounting for the individual-level effects of centrality.

Conclusion: Sport is a domain where participants can build social connections with peers, and sport groups offer a salient source for social identification. The current findings indicate that athletes who have greater social connections with teammates may form a stronger sense of social identification. Alongside theoretical contributions to a social identity approach to studying small groups, the current study highlights the utility of studying small groups using social network methodologies.

期刊介绍: Group Dynamics: Theory, Research, and Practice publishes original empirical articles, theoretical analyses, literature reviews, and brief reports dealing with basic and applied topics in the field of group research and application. The editors construe the phrase group dynamics in the broadest sense—the scientific study of all aspects of groups—and publish work by investigators in such fields as psychology, psychiatry, sociology, education, communication, and business. The journal publishes articles examining groups in a range of contexts, including ad hoc groups in experimental settings, therapy groups, naturally forming friendship groups and cliques, organizational units, self-help groups, and learning groups.
