ABSTRACT:
This study assessed the relationship between locus of control and player satisfaction. Participants were 91 female, intercollegiate volleyball players from eight San Francisco Bay Area colleges representing Division I, II, III, and Community College level teams. Players were administered the Levenson Internal, Powerful Others, and Chance scale to measure locus of control. Satisfaction was assessed with the Sport Satisfaction Scale, a measure devised for the purposes of this study. A positive relationship was hypothesized between internal locus of control and satisfaction, and a negative correlation between powerful others and chance scales and satisfaction. Further, it was hypothesized that the Division I and II teams would be more internal in their locus of control and have higher satisfaction scores than the Division II and Community College teams. No differences were found among divisions on locus of control and satisfaction scores, and correlations between locus of control and satisfaction were not significant. Results are discussed in terms of possible methodological limitations and implications for future locus of control and player satisfaction research.
