Cohesión de equipo en atletas de deportes individuales/de equipo: liderazgo transformacional y el papel de las normas sociales

Youngtaek Oh y Jung-In Yoo

La cohesión del equipo es un factor crítico en los deportes, sin embargo, pocos estudios han analizado comparativamente a los atletas de deportes individuales y de equipo en situaciones deportivas. El propósito de este estudio fue identificar la relación entre el liderazgo transformacional, las normas sociales y la cohesión del equipo, y analizar los efectos moderadores de los atletas de deportes individuales/de equipo. En 2022, un total de 196 jugadores de béisbol, judo, fútbol, ​​taekwondo y hockey registrados en el Comité Olímpico y Deportivo de Corea completaron un cuestionario utilizando escalas de liderazgo transformacional, normas sociales y cohesión de equipo. El liderazgo transformacional tuvo un efecto positivo significativo en las normas sociales y la cohesión del equipo. Las normas sociales tuvieron un efecto positivo significativo en la cohesión del equipo. El liderazgo transformacional y la interacción de atletas deportivos individuales/de equipo tuvieron un efecto significativo en la cohesión del equipo. En este momento, los atletas de deportes individuales parecían tener una cohesión de equipo algo mayor. Este estudio arroja luz sobre las normas sociales y la cohesión del equipo de los atletas desde una perspectiva moral social basada en la teoría del liderazgo transformacional. También puede ayudar a los jóvenes deportistas que recién comienzan a aprender la cultura y la sociología del deporte.
