“…Indeed, research suggests that prosocial teammate interactions are positively associated with social identity strength (Benson & Bruner, 2018). As parents are an important source of social influence in the context of youth sport (Dorsch et al, 2020), another fruitful avenue for future work would be to consider how different forms of parental involvement influence the team socialization processes that occur in youth sport. Indeed, a shortcoming of the STSTQ is its focus on coach-driven and peer-driven socialization processes.…”

How new members are integrated into a particular group environment—also known as organizational socialization processes—have been shown to be a powerful predictor of newcomer adjustment in the workplace. Yet, there is a scarcity of research on how sport teams manage the integration of new team members, and the consequences of different tactics. The current research evaluated how socialization processes are associated with youth athletes’ perceptions of their group environment. Across two time points, 202 competitive adolescent ice hockey players from 15 teams (Mage = 14.47, SD = 1.22, 54 females) completed measures of team socialization processes, social identity strength, and cohesion. Athletes’ perceptions of team socialization processes (T1) were positively associated with social identity (T1 and T2) and cohesion (T1 and T2). Mediation analyses revealed that coach-initiated role communication tactics were positively associated with social identity change that, in turn, corresponded to higher levels of social and task cohesion. The results suggest that the processes surrounding the integration of new members may be a key lever for managing the social environment for athletes in youth sport.

“…As a result, this represented a diversity of measures, especially questionnaires used for assessments with either parents or athletes. 8 Suggestions for improvement of evaluation in parent programs concern greater consideration for follow-up assessments with participants, continuous contact during the program, and diagnostics with external parent support agents to verify long-term behavior changes (e.g., coaches, athletes, or peers 8,12,23,53 ).…”

In recent years, there has been an increase in the delivery and evaluation of parent education programs within youth sport. Subsequently, some recent reviews of these programs have been conducted. However, one consistent issue across many of the programs and associated review papers is the lack of an appropriate evaluation framework to guide the planning or associated reporting of the outcomes of the interventions. This has limited understanding of the overall impact of sport parenting interventions. Thus, the purposes of the current study were as follows: (a) to identify commonalities in the reporting and evaluation of parent education programs; (b) to identify gaps in the reporting and evaluation of parent education programs; (c) to draw these insights together to provide suggestions regarding how the RE‐AIM could be used to enhance planning and evaluation of evidence‐based programs for parent education in sport. Specifically, utilizing the RE‐AIM framework to provide insights into pertinent evaluation metrics, this integrative review aimed to identify commonalities and gaps in the reporting of parent education programs. The RE‐AIM framework considers the essential elements to assess the external and internal validity of interventions through five dimensions: Reach, Effectiveness, Adoption, Implementation, and Maintenance (Am J Public Health. 1999;89(9):1322‐1327). Subsequently, the review aimed to provide suggestions regarding strategies to enhance the planning and evaluation of evidence‐based programs for parent education in sport. Overall, the analysis demonstrated that most studies presented some pertinent evaluation information related to the RE‐AIM framework, such as the number of participants and contacts made, the measures used, and the program level. However, the studies also lacked information on participant exclusion criteria, the method used to select the delivery agent (e.g., parents engaged in the program), and cost measures. Overall, the current study identified various areas where programs could be enhanced, specifically related to reporting procedural elements (e.g., program design, target population, and costs) pertaining to the implementation of parent education programs.

“…That means that the influence of some types of physical capital may increase over time, while others plateau or even decrease. For example, Dorsch et al (2020) found that while there was an evident decline in parental involvement as children reach adolescence, this phenomenon in girls occurred earlier than boys.…”

IntroductionIn recent years, massive studies have examined sport from the standpoint of cultural capital. However, these studies have not examined cultural capital in relation to habitus within specific fields.MethodsThis article utilized a multivariate latent growth curve model to analyze changes of participants’ physical habitus. Hypotheses concerning the form of growth in physical habitus, individual perceived capital influence differences in the common trajectory over time, and covariates influencing the growth of PH were tested.ResultsSignificant linear increases existed for perceived influence from family and school, while significant linear decreases existed for perceived influence from community. The second-order alternative format of the latent growth curve model indicated that associations among individual perceived influence differences could be adequately explained by a higher order physical habitus construct. Gender, personal health condition, family socio-economic status, and weekly time spent on physical activities significantly predicted initial levels of physical habitus, whereas family social economic status significantly predicted the rate of change in physical habitus simultaneously.DiscussionThese findings not only support the participation in sport is constructed socially but also that individual efforts and contextual influences contribute to physical habitus. Furthermore, three types of perceived influences intertwined so much in simultaneity, instead of contributing to physical habitus across time.
