Situation-Contingent Leader Influence
Contingency Trait Theories
Fiedler’s Contingency Theory- Personality traits that lead to leader effectiveness in one situation may lead to failure in another- Personality traits are linked here to the specific situation
- Examples: Doug Collins; Bobby Knight
![Page 16: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Fiedler’s Contingency Theory
Two Factors involved:Personality of the leader
Degree to which the situation gives the leader power
Two types of motivation involved:Relationship motivation
Task motivation
![Page 19: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Fiedler’s Contingency Theory
Born or not born debate…Supporters of this theory feel leadership training programs are of little to no value
They can only enhance power and influence that the leader already possesses
![Page 20: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Path-Goal Theory
Situation Specific Leader InfluenceThis theory is concerned with the
situations under which various
leader behaviors are most
effective
Effective leadership is a function of learned behaviors that are situation specific
![Page 21: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Path-Goal Theory
Emphasis is on the needs and goals of the athlete
Coach is viewed as more of a facilitator
Coach helps athlete to realize his or her goals
Bottom line: Guide the athlete to success
![Page 22: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Tom Landry and Roger Staubach may be good examples of this theory...
![Page 23: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Path-Goal Theory
Born or not born debate…Here, the view would be that individual can be taught to be a good leader
![Page 24: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Life Cycle Theory
Emphasis in leadership behavior on the subordinates and not the leader
The type of leadership style for any specific situation depends on the maturity of the subordinate
![Page 25: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Life Cycle Theory
Task structure behavior decreases with increased maturityRelationship behavior is low when dealing with athletes of both low and high levels of maturity but high when dealing with athletes of moderate levels
![Page 26: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Case (1987): Sport Psychology implications
Feels young athletes who lack maturity and highly skilled and mature athletes would not respond well to high task structure
They would benefit from coaches high in relationship motivation
Moderately mature athletes need more structure
But less relationship motivation
![Page 27: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Life Cycle Theory
Born or not born debate…Again, the view here would be that individual can be taught to be a good leader
![Page 28: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
The Ohio State/Michigan Studies
- Initiating Consideration: the extent to which a leader is approachable and shows personal concern for employees
- Initiating Structure: the degree to which a leader concentrates on group goal attainment
The idea here is that leadership behavior ca be trained
![Page 29: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Okay, so far we can break leadership theories down like this:
Trait – Innate Behavior – Can be Trained
Universal Trait or Great Man Theory
Michigan and OSU studies
Situation - Contingent
Fiedler’s Contingency Model of Leadership
Path-Goal Theory
Life Cycle Theory
![Page 30: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Other theories:
The Functional Model
Chelladurai’s Multidimensional Model
![Page 31: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The Functional Model
Leadership does not rest with one person but rests on a set of behaviors by the group that gets things doneAny member of the group can perform these behaviorsThis model places greater emphasis on how an organization or task is being led rather than who has been formally assigned a leadership role
![Page 32: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The Functional Model
A sport example of this model would be a group or committee that has been established to determine the club’s social activities for the season
![Page 33: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Chelladurai’s Multidimensional Model
Proposed indicator of effective leadershipPerformance outcomesMember satisfaction
Interaction of three components of leadership are involved here:
Prescribed leader behaviorsEstablished norms
Preferred leader behaviorsAthletes prefer these in their coach
Actual leader behaviorsCoach’s actual behaviors
![Page 34: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Best case scenario: Congruence
Congruence between all three types lead to optimal performance and satisfaction
![Page 35: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Possible Problems…
All three leader behaviors are incongruent If actual is incongruent with both prescribed and preferred – outcome is that coach will be firedIf prescribed and actual are congruent but incongruent with preferred – outcome is good performance despite low satisfactionIf actual and preferred are congruent but prescribed is incongruent – outcome is a satisfied but low performance athlete or team
![Page 36: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Playing Position and Leadership
Those playing the central positions are often the leaders
Example: In baseball from what position do you find go on to become managers? Catchers
![Page 37: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Group Cohesion
The strength of the bonds among group members
Interpersonal cohesiveness: Enjoyment of one another’s company
Task cohesiveness: Commitment to the group’s task
![Page 39: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Factors Affecting Team Cohesion
Groups Size
Task
Team Tenure
Satisfaction

Groups Size: Social Loafing
A group-produced reduction in individual output on easy tasks in which contributions are pooled
Individuals in a group who are working below their potential
![Page 41: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Ringelman’s (1880’s) experiments
Individual output declines on pooled tasks in all his experimentsFor example in a rope-tugging task
Units pulled in rope-tugging task:1 person 100 2 people 1863 people 2558 people 392
![Page 42: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Social Loafing
Ingham et al (1974) Blind folded rope pulling
DV: Effort
IV: Thought people were behind them or not
Subjects pulled 18% harder when they thought they were alone
![Page 43: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

Why does loafing happen ?
Diffusion of responsibility:In a group we feel able to share responsibility and this may lead to a reduction of effort
Free-rider effect: If we feel like our contribution is not essential…still benefit from the group and give little in return (low input, high output)
Sucker effect: Willing to do your share but not more than that (esp. if others are free-riding)Since everyone is benefiting and getting credit, you don’t want to be the sucker who does all the work (and no recognition), therefore do the minimum requirement
![Page 45: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
We loaf less when…
If personal efforts are identifiableIf a task is challenging, appealing, or involving
If the task is meaningful and importantIf we think our contribution is essential
If we are working with friends vs. strangers
If the group expects to be punished for poor performance
If the group is small
If the group is cohesive

Social Facilitation
If performance can be individually evaluated, the presence of others will be arousing (improve performance on simple tasks but interfere with performance on complex tasks)

Triplett (1898)
One of first sport or social psychology experiment
We mentioned this during our talk first week of semester

Zajonc (1965)
Proposed that the mere presence of others increases arousal which in turn affects our performance
![Page 52: Chapters 11-12 (LeUnes): Leadership and Group Cohesion Audience Effects on Sport Psychology of Sport Sep 28-Oct 5, 2009 Class #14-17.](https://reader030.fdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032612/56649ec65503460f94bd229c/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
Zajonc (1969)
Cockroach study Cockroach placed in a tube with a bright light at one end of the tube…
To escape the light, the cockroach had to run down the tube and into a darkened box at the other end of the tube…
DV: Speed of escape
IV: Presence or absence of other cockroaches
Results: Cockroaches were faster to escape when other cockroaches were present

Criticisms of Zajonc
Support for this model was eroded when later studies showed that the type of audience was important e.g. home or away fans
The exact mechanism behind the social facilitation has yet to be determined but all of the following have been proposed: heightened self-awareness, self-consciousness, self-presentation concern, self-monitoring and self-attention

Michaels et al. (1982)
Secretly rated pool players in a hall as above average or below average ability…
Then a group of confederates came and stood by their table as they played
The above average players' shot accuracy improved from 71 to 80% accurate, while the below average players slipped from 36 to 25% accurate
Does the Yerkes-Dodson Law applies here?

The Home Advantage
The presence of a supportive and interactive audience
Is it real?
Why might it be?
Are their other factors involved than the court/field?

HOME ADVANTAGE
The belief that a home crowd causes an advantage for the home team
It is believed that this effect is more prominent in sports such as basketball and ice hockey where the audience are located very close to the court

The Home Advantage
Functional Assertive BehaviorSuperior performance by home team
Dysfunctional Assertive behaviorInhibited performance by away team

DISTRACTION EFFECT
Barron suggested that crowds cause a distraction to the performer as a performer can only attend to a small number of cue’s while performing
He therefore suggested that simple tasks were best performed in the presence of a crowd while complex tasks will be best performed in isolation

Home Disadvantage
Critical gamesDoes it cause the home team to “choke”
Self-Presentation Effects
Can sometimes hurt a home team player’s performance

Baumeister and Steinhilber (1984, 1995)
Critical games might be a home disadvantage

Self-Presentation Effects
Cottrell questioned the fact that the mere presence of others would raise arousal levelsHe suggested that audiences can have a calming effect on performers in some circumstancesHe suggested that arousal only occurred in front of an audience when the performer perceived the audience to be assessing their performance
