| Popis: | 96 Jealousy was considered as a common emotional reaction, a feeling of dissatisfied with oneself to be superior by someone while comparing to others. Previous studies have found the negative effects of this kind of psychological process on interpersonal relationship development. Besides, group cohesion was a dynamic process which is reflected in the tendency for a group to stick together and remain united in the pursuit of its goals and objectives. Therefore, the present study was trying to investigate the relations among jealousy, cohesion and satisfaction. The participants were athletes from Level Ι sport teams including badminton, track and field, weight lifting, gymnastics, volleyball, tennis and basketball. 288 questionnaires were sent out initially, and the numbers of valid questionnaires were 267 after getting rid of 21 invalid ones. Sport Jealousy Scale and Group Environment Scale were administered in this study, through a series of analytic procedures, including item analysis, EFA, reliability analysis and CFA, to construct reliability and validity. It was found that, 1.the athletes were only mildly jealous; 2.a negative and significant relation between jealousy and cohesion were found; and, 3.jealousy and satisfaction significant predicted cohesion. According to the results and the discussion, the present study provided practical implications and suggestions for the future studies. |
