碩士 === 國立臺灣體育大學(桃園) === 教練研究所 === 96 === The purpose of this study was twofold: first, to test the prediction of coach’s transactional and transformational leadership perceived by athletes on sport motivation, satisfaction, and dropout intention and second, to test the augmenting effect of perceived transformational leadership on sport motivation, satisfaction and dropout intention among women’s elite basketball players. Total 60 elite basketball players recruited from 4 teams competing in Women’s Super Basketball League (WSBL) participated in the study. The average age of the participants was 23.1±4.27 years and the experience in basketball was 10.55±4.01 years. Participants were asked to complete questionnaires which assessed their perceptions of coach’s transactional and transformational leadership, sport motivation, satisfaction, and dropout intention. The main findings from the study were: (1) The perceived transactional leadership could positively predicted athletes’ identified regulation of sport motivation and perceived transformational leadership could positively predicted athletes’ intrinsic motivation and negatively predicted amotivation; However satisfaction and dropout intention were not predicted by either transactional leadership or transformational leadership; (2) The results of hierarchical regression analyses indicted that the augmenting effect of transformational leadership was found on intrinsic motivation, introjected regulation and amotivation of sport motivation. Based on the results of this study, the implications, applications and future research directions are also proposed.
