Abstract [sv]

Att utveckla atleter bygger på förmågan att som ledare kunna skapa goda relationer till sina atleter. En viktig del i att skapa goda relationer handlar om att kunna individanpassa sitt bemötande, beroende på den enskilda individens behov. Syftet var att studera sambandet mellan föredraget ledarskapsbeteende och personlighet, kön, ålder samt typ av idrott (lag- och individuell idrott). Idrottare N=113, 25st män och 88st kvinnor svarade på en online-enkät innehållande demografisk information, Leadership Scale for Sports och NEO Five-factor Inventory. Personlighetsegenskapen Trevlighet hade positivt samband med Autokratiskt ledarskapsbeteende och negativt samband med Positiv Feedback, Demokratiskt- samt Socialt stödjande ledarskapsbeteende. Neuroticism hade ett positivt samband med Autokratiskt ledarskapsbeteende och Extroversion hade ett negativt samband med Instruerande ledarskapsbeteende. Kvinnor föredrar Socialt stödjande ledarskapsbeteende mer än män och män föredrar Demokratiskt ledarskapsbeteende mer än kvinnor. Äldre personer föredrar Socialt stödjande ledarskapsbeteende mer än yngre. I föreliggande studie finns inget entydigt resultat eller distinkt samband mellan flera individuella faktorer, som pekar på att någon av de fem olika ledarskapsdimensionerna skulle vara mer föredraget framför de andra. De individuella faktorerna kan förklara vissa behov hos atleter, men dess betydelse behöver först identifieras av både atleten själv och ledaren, för att därefter kunna tillämpa ett passande beteende.

Abstract [en]

Developing athletes is based on the ability as a leader to create good relationships with their athletes.!An important part of creating good relationships is about being able to adapt one's attitude to the individual, depending on the individual's needs. The objective of the study was to examine the relationship between preferred leadership behaviour and personality, gender, age and type of sport (team and individual sport). Athletes N=113, 25 men and 88 females answered an online-survey containing demographic information, Leadership Scale for Sports and NEO Five-factor Inventory. Agreeableness had a positive correlation with Autocratic leadership and a negative correlation with Positive Feedback, Democratic leadership and Social support. Neuroticism had a positive correlation with Autocratic leadership and Extroversion had a negative correlation with Instructive Leadership. Women prefer Social support more than men and men prefer Democratic leadership more than women. Older people prefer Social support more than younger people. In the present study, there is no unambiguous result or distinct relationship between several individual factors, which indicates that one of the five different leadership dimensions would be more preferred over the others. The individual factors may explain certain needs of athletes, but their meaning must first be identified by both the athlete and the leader, in order to apply an appropriate behavior.
