Características de liderazgo en el deporte de judo

Abstract

This work presents some of the main results obtained from the trainers version of the Leadership Scale (LSS), which was adapted for judo from Chelladurai and Salehs Leadership Scale (1980) and Crespo, Balaguer, and Atienzas Spanish version of the scale for tennis (1994). The scale was administered to a sample of 26 highly-experienced and highly qualified competition judo trainers of both genders currently training in Spain. The results showed a remarkable similarity to previous studies in terms of scores and the correlation analyses between factors. However, the scores on the Social Support factor are significantly higher in this study and the internal consistency values and reliability indices also seem to be higher for the judo LSS.
