Introduction: Currently, there is still a limited scale of sportsmanship that is valid and appropriate to the Indonesian cultural context for junior high school students. Objective: This study aims to develop and test the validity and reliability of the Student Sportsmanship Scale in Physical Education (S3-PE). Methodology: The scale was developed using the ADDIE model, starting with needs analysis and theory-based item construction. Aiken’s V showed 19 of 20 items valid (>0.78); one item was removed. Content reliability was high (0.871), and inter-rater reliability was moderate (ICC = 0.529). The scale was piloted on 1.750 junior high students. Construct validity and reliability were tested using Covariance-Based Structural Equation Modeling (CB-SEM). Results: Validity and reliability tests using CB-SEM showed that all items were valid (loading >0.70), reliable (α and CR >0.70), and AVE >0.50. The model fit was good, and concurrent validity was proven (r = 0.693; p <0.001), although the Chi-square/df was slightly above the ideal limit. Discussion: The results showed that the scale had strong construct validity and reliability. All statistical indicators met the recommended criteria, including discriminant and concurrent validity, and the model fit was excellent. Although the Chi-square/df value was slightly high, the overall model was deemed suitable for use. Conclusions: These findings conclude that the S3-PE is a valid, reliable, and suitable measurement tool for student sportsmanship in the context of physical education at the junior high school level.

Gina tries to be the star of the soccer team at her new school, but her teammates do not like her showoff moves.

Introduction: While teachers' teaching skills are crucial for supports student character and sportsmanship, few studies have directly examined this link. Objective: Building on the importance of teaching skills, this study aims to investigate the relationship between teachers' teaching skills and students' sportsmanship in PE.Methodology: To explore this relationship, the study used a correlational method involving 105 students. Data on teachers' teaching skills were measured through three aspects: opening, organizing, and closing the lesson. Student sportsmanship data were measured using the Student Sportsmanship Scale in Physical Education (S3-PE), which includes five indicators: commitment, social conventions, rules and officials, opponents, and negative approach. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and Spearman correlation. Results: The analysis revealed a positive and significant correlation between teachers' teaching skills and students' sportsmanship. Specifically, the aspect \"Organizing learning\" had the highest correlation with students' sportsmanship (ρ = 0.545), followed by \"Closing learning\" (ρ = 0.521) and \"Opening learning\" (ρ = 0.388). The overall correlation between teaching skills and student sportsmanship was moderate (ρ = 0.569). Discussion: These results suggest that teachers' teaching skills can be an important factor in shaping students' sportsmanship. Consequently, teachers need to implement teaching strategies that encourage sportsmanship through various physical education activities.Conclusions: In summary, teachers' skills not only improve students' physical abilities but also shape sportsmanship attitudes and behaviors that are beneficial in everyday life. Introducción: Aunque las habilidades pedagógicas del profesorado son fundamentales para apoyar el desarrollo del carácter y la deportividad de los estudiantes, pocos estudios han examinado directamente esta relación.  Objetivo: Partiendo de la importancia de las habilidades docentes, este estudio tiene como objetivo investigar la relación entre las habilidades de enseñanza del profesorado y la deportividad de los estudiantes en Educación Física.  Metodología: Para explorar esta relación, se empleó un método correlacional con la participación de 105 estudiantes. Los datos sobre las habilidades docentes se midieron a través de tres aspectos: apertura, organización y cierre de la lección. La deportividad de los estudiantes se evaluó mediante la Student Sportsmanship Scale in Physical Education (S3-PE), que incluye cinco indicadores: compromiso, convenciones sociales, reglas y árbitros, oponentes y enfoque negativo. Los datos se analizaron utilizando estadística descriptiva y la correlación de Spearman.  Resultados: El análisis reveló una correlación positiva y significativa entre las habilidades docentes y la deportividad de los estudiantes. Específicamente, el aspecto de organización del aprendizaje presentó la correlación más alta con la deportividad estudiantil (ρ = 0.545), seguido del cierre del aprendizaje (ρ = 0.521) y la apertura del aprendizaje (ρ = 0.388). La correlación global entre las habilidades docentes y la deportividad de los estudiantes fue de magnitud moderada (ρ = 0.569). Discusión: Estos resultados sugieren que las habilidades de enseñanza del profesorado pueden constituir un factor importante en la formación de la deportividad de los estudiantes. En consecuencia, los docentes necesitan implementar estrategias pedagógicas que fomenten la deportividad a través de diversas actividades de Educación Física. Conclusiones: En síntesis, las habilidades del profesorado no solo mejoran las capacidades físicas de los estudiantes, sino que también contribuyen a la formación de actitudes y comportamientos deportivos que resultan beneficiosos para la vida cotidiana.

Mia's chances of skating in regionals are threatened by a family crisis, but she determines to face the possibility that she won't get to compete with determination and grace.

Football plays a fundamental role in the lives of the boys and girls who play it and it can become an invaluable educational instrument. However, for introduction to football to be truly educational, it needs to be carefully planned and guided; otherwise, it may encourage negative and undesirable behaviour from a moral and ethical point of view. That way, many authors claim that a careful and deliberate initiation to football is necessary for the promotion of sportspersonship to become a reality. The goal of this research is to analyse the evolution of sportspersonship orientation in the social sports football schools of Fundación Real Madrid and in association football clubs. For this purpose, the Multidimensional Sportspersonship Orientations Scale is used. The research involves 1509 male and female youth football players aged between 8 and 16 years (M = 10.9±2.2), of whom 952 belong to the social sports football schools of the Fundación Real Madrid and 547 to association football clubs. The most outstanding results show that the players of the social sports schools of Fundación Real Madrid obtain high values in sportspersonship orientation. Moreover, these values remain high in all categories, while they show a significant decrease in players from association football clubs. The social sports model of Fundación Real Madrid can contribute to maintaining high levels of sportspersonship orientation throughout the player's training process.

Nine-year-old Ben learns some lessons in self-control and sportsmanship when his behavior on the soccer field gets him sent to the bench.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between perceived organizational support (POS), employee development and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) while considering the moderating effect of person-organization (P-O) on this association. Design/methodology/approach: Using a stratified sampling technique, the data was collected from 331 employees working in different bank branches located in five metropolitan cities of Pakistan. To test the hypotheses, the structural equation modeling technique was applied using AMOS 21.0. Findings: The results of the study strongly supported the relationship between POS, employee development and organizational commitment. However, an insignificant relationship was found between POS, employee development and OCB. The results also reported a significant relationship between organizational commitment and OCB. Moreover, the relationship between organizational commitment and OCB was found to be moderated by P-O fit. Research limitations/implications: The findings of the study can be useful for banking organizations and policymakers responsible for employee and organizational productivity. The findings of the study can also assist the organizational leaders in working on long-term employee support programs to maximize their commitment to the organization. The study also provides the scope and space for potential scholars and researchers for carrying out further research. Originality/value: While there is extensive literature is available on POS, employee development and its impact on OCB. However, it appears that very little work has been done to examine the moderating role of the P-O fit in the relationship between organizational commitment and OCB. Therefore, this study can be considered as original and of great value in understanding its relationships between various constructs in the scenario of Pakistan.

Combat sports require participants to engage in potentially dangerous forms of contact-based competition. Pressure to succeed, coupled with the risk of severe injury can induce significant levels of anxiety, which if uncontrolled, can negatively impact performance and possibly promote unsporting conduct. The present study examined competitive anxiety levels of combat sports athletes and determined whether self-reported scores were associated with mental toughness and Sportspersonship attitudes. A cross-sectional survey design was used whereby participants (N = 194) completed a battery of questionnaires measuring competitive combat sport experiences, demographic details, Sportspersonship traits (compliance towards rules, respect for opponents, and game perspective), and competition anxiety (somatic, cognitive, and self-confidence; reported retrospectively). Results suggest that mentally tough athletes experience lower levels of cognitive and somatic anxiety, and higher self-confidence, prior to competitions. Findings also found that athletes endorsing more altruistic and respectful attitudes in sport (Sportspersonship) reported higher levels of competition anxiety. The findings demonstrate that mental toughness is allied to positive attributes and could potentially be operationalized to improve both the retention and performance of combat sports athletes. Thus, the authors advocate the use of mental toughness coaching interventions within combat sports.
