Abstract: (420 Views)
the purpose of the present study is to investigate the social loafing among female athletes of track and field and basketball in task oriented and ego oriented environments.
the current study is an applied research and semi experimental research. The participants are the top female athletes who volunteered in track and field and basketball and have been chosen considering the entrance criterion of the research. 24 of the participants (12 basketball players and 12 runners) were aged from 18 to 25.
the results indicated that there is a significant relationship between social loafing in the task-oriented and ego-oriented environments. According to the mean differences, the athletes regardless of their field, had a better performance in ego-centered environment rather than the task-oriented one.
the results pointed out the participants had more performance in a task-oriented environment rather than an ego-oriented one. The kind of environment was more significant rather than the kind of sport in social loafing. Therefore, regardless of the sports fields, there need to be some consideration in order to create a more applicable environment where the team morals and team association in a way to do the activities, have a high priority and results in reducing the ego-orientation.
