ABSTRACT:
This study examined the relationship between coaches' efficacy expectations for their teams, ratings of opponents' ability, perceived control over outcome, perceived importance of success, and basketball performance. A second pupose was to identify sources of coaches' team efficacy. Four collegiate women's basketball coaches completed questionnaires prior to 10 basketball games (N = 40). Results indicated that coaches' efficacy was significantly correlated with perceived control over the outcome (the higher their efficacy, the higher their perceived control). Regression analysis found that coaches' efficacy was a significant predictor of making free throws and committing few turnovers and that perceived opponent ability was a significant predictor of coahces' efficacy. An inductive content analysis of the sources of coaches' efficacy beliefs indentified sources of high and low efficacy for coaches (e.g., previous game performance, practice performance, comparison with opponent).
