The effect of a season of Little League baseball on the self-esteem of 94 players was investigated. The Coopersmith Self-esteem Inventory assessed General-Self, Social-Self, Home-Parents, School-Academic, and a Lie scale. A Baseball-Self scale was devised. Independent variables were players' ages and team affiliation. Data were reliable. Significant improvements in players' total Self-esteem, Home-Parents and School-Academic scores were found at the end of the season. Social-Self scores significantly decreased for 9- and 10-yr.-old players. Baseball-Self scores were significantly lowered on only two of the eight teams. Significant changes in the various dimensions of self-esteem were unrelated to coaches' ratings of players' baseball ability. |
