dc.description.abstractThe concept of leadership is perhaps one of the most extensively researched topics in sport studies. Therefore, the present study examined athletes' perceptions towards their coaches' leadership behavior. Within this broader thrust, the sub-group differences defined by gender (an individual characteristic), task type (a situation characteristic), and gender by task type (their interactions) were investigated and compared. The five perceived leadership behaviors assessed by using the Leadership Scale for Sports (LSS) were training and instruction, democratic behavior, autocratic behavior, social support and positive feedback. The internal consistency for subscales of perceived version of LSS ranged from.58 to.89 in the study. The subjects of the study were 128 females and 294 males university athletes from eight different universities. The multivariate analysis for task dependence variables showed that there was statistically significant difference between interdependent sports and dependent sports among university student athletes, Wilks' lambda =.85, F(5,416) = 5.79, p <.05. Similarly, the multivariate analysis also indicated that the grouping variables of male interdependent sports, female interdependent sports, male dependent sports, and female dependent sports were found to have significant effect on the LSS, Wilks' lambda =.91, F(5,416) = 3.11, p <.05. Follow up univariate analysis were performed only on task dependence and the interaction of gender and task dependence, because the multivariate test was not significant for gender. Leadership behavior in sports plays an integral role in the success of athletes' performance and athletic teams. Based on the findings of the present study, athletes, coaches and researchers will have better understanding as to the importance of coaching leadership behaviors and the interaction between individual differences (gender) and situational characteristics (task dependence).The results were further discussed and elaborated.en_US
