Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of the experience of TB among a university baseball team’s members from the viewpoint of collective efficacy. For this purpose, we carried out a TB program with one university baseball team (102 males, 6 female) in 2011. This TB program had a theoretical background of transactional analysis. The average age of the 108 participants was 19.99 years (±1.417). We used the Collective Efficacy Questionnaire for Sports (Short et al. in Meas Phys Educ Exerc Sci 93:181–202, 2005 [1]), to examine the effects of TB. Responses to this questionnaire collected from the participants before and immediately after the TB intervention. A paired t-test showed that each factor of collective efficacy was higher than before the TB experience (p < 0.05). The practical implication of these findings suggested that implementation of TB is effective from the viewpoint of collective efficacy.
