Participants in School-Sponsored and Independent Sports: Perceptions of Self and Family.

Browne, Beverly A.; Francis, Sally K.

Adolescence, v28 n110 p383-92 Sum 1993

Examined perceptions of social competence and family dynamics among adolescent participants in school-sponsored and independent sports (baseball and skateboarding). Findings from 271 adolescents revealed that perceptions of social competence were differentially related to degree of sports involvement and perceived skill but were not related to social acceptability of the sport.
