학생선수의 지각된 자율성지지와 번아웃 그리고 스포츠 도덕 행동의 구조적 관계

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the structural relationships among perceived autonomy support, burnout, and sport moral behavior in middle and high school student-athletes. Data were collected from 318 student-athletes in the Seoul metropolitan area and the Jeolla region, and analyses were conducted accordingly. The validity and reliability of the measurement instruments were confirmed through confirmatory factor analysis and reliability testing, while descriptive statistical analyses verified normality. Correlation analyses were performed to assess multicollinearity, and hypotheses were tested using structural equation modeling. The results indicated that autonomy support had a negative effect on burnout and a positive effect on both prosocial and antisocial behaviors. Furthermore, burnout positively affected prosocial behavior while negatively influencing antisocial behavior. From a developmental perspective across the human life cycle, middle and high school student-athletes are at an immature stage. Therefore, rather than merely ensuring autonomy support, it is more desirable to provide timely and appropriate guidance. In addition, proactive efforts to prevent burnout are essential to reduce the likelihood of immoral behavior.
