|a The level of athleticism in cheerleading has increased over the last three decades. An individual’s perception of their coach’s behavior may influence the athlete’s sport injury anxiety. Currently, no research has studied coaching behavior as a predictor of sport injury anxiety in male and female cheerleaders. Since, cheerleading is generally not considered a sport; little research has been conducted examining coaching behaviors. However, cheerleading does receive a lot of media attention for the number of injuries it produces every year. Therefore, it is necessary to research the differences between perceived coaching behaviors and sport injury anxiety in cheerleading. Participants in this study were drawn from All-Girl and Coed collegiate teams along with All-Star teams. The Leadership Scale for Sport (LSS) was used to assess the cheerleaders’ perceived coaching behavior and the Sport Injury Anxiety Scale (Cassidy, 2006) was used to assess sport injury anxiety. Three hierarchical regression analyses were conducted to predict sport injury anxiety (anxiety related to being perceived as weak, experiencing pain, and reinjury) based on perceived coaching behaviors while controlling for severity and recency of the injury. A MANCOVA was conducted to determine differences in sport injury anxiety levels and gender while controlling for severity and recency of injury. Results indicate cheerleaders who perceive that their coaches have lower levels of training and instruction, democratic behavior, social support and positive feedback are more prone to anxiety related to experiencing pain. In addition, female cheerleaders had higher levels of anxiety related to being perceived as weak, experiencing pain and having an impaired self-image when compared to their male counterparts. |
