ABSTRACT:
This investigation was designed to study the effects of a baseball team's season record on cohesion in collegiate baseball. Sixty-five (32 winners, 33 losers) baseball team members from four Division III colleges participated as subjects. Cohesion was measured by the Group Environment Questionnaire (GEQ). The questionnaire was administered one week prior to the announcement of those who would travel on the spring training trip, after returning home from the trip, and at the end of the season. Members of losing teams exhibited significant decreases in Attraction to Group-Task and Group Integration-Task, while perceptions of task cohesion from members of winning teams were not enhanced. Members of losing teams also exhibited significant decreases in Group Integration-Social, while members of winning teams showed no positive nor negative effect. The sub-scale Attraction to the Group-Social revealed no significant differences between winner or losers at any assessment time.
