The Relationship among the Professor`s Super Leadership, Self-Esteem, Learning Satisfaction and Learning Flow As Perceived By Physical Education Majors Students

Exploring the relationship between super-leadership, self-leadership, and exercise commitment in university Taekwondo teams

“…The survey items were adapted from previously validated studies. Six items were adapted from the super-leadership scale, which originally consisted of 7 items with an alpha coefficient of 0.909, used in the research conducted by Lee et al (2016) to assess super-leadership. In the course of an expert meeting that involved three sport psychology and management professors and two general managers from the university taekwondo teams, one of the original seven items, “My coach allows me to independently consider the technique before I start,” was omitted due to its redundancy with other survey questions.…”

“…In light of this, Lee et al (2016) found that the perception of professors' super-leadership among college students influences their self-leadership, which subsequently impacts learning flow and major satisfaction, fully mediating the relationships between superleadership and learning flow. In contrast, Kim et al (2016) reported that in college students majoring in physical education, professors' super-leadership directly affects students' self-leadership and learning immersion, while also indirectly impacting learning immersion through self-leadership, suggesting a partial mediating role of self-leadership in this relationship.…”

“…It involves leaders partially delegating authority, granting athletes autonomy to explore ways to improve their motor skills, and instilling a sense of ownership in their training. As a result, leaders’ super-leadership is closely linked to self-leadership, emphasizing autonomy and spontaneity among team members, and further research is needed to explore this relationship specifically within the college sport domain, building upon studies conducted in general organizational settings ( Jung and Kim, 2010 ; Kang et al, 2012 ; Park, 2012 ; Kim et al, 2016 ; Lee et al, 2016 ; Seok and Joo, 2016 ; Han and Cho, 2021a ).…”
