Ideal Sport Perspective Hahm, Beller, Stoll
(1989)

3
The Hahm-Beller Values Choice Inventory (c)Hahm,
Beller, Stoll, 1988
  • 21 commonly occurring sport moral dilemmas.
  • Based in the Ideal of sport competition.

4
Scenarios
  • Retaliation
  • Drug use
  • Personal responsibilities for actions
  • Fairness to teammates and competitors
  • The intentional foul

5
Principles are
  • ...daily guidelines that we all develop, based on
    our personal value and belief structure, that can
    be consistent with universal principles.
  • I.e. Respect for private property
  • Respect for the truth
  • Respect for others

What is the difference between moral values and
social values?
  • Moral values honesty, responsibility, justice,
    respect
  • Social values Teamwork, loyalty, dedication,
    sacrifice.

Descriptive Study2000
  • The purpose of this study was to examine high
    school athletes and nonathletes moral values
    and social values.

  • N 28 Nonathletes
  • N 159 Team Sport
  • N 35 Individual Sport
  • N 146 males
  • N 76 females

31
Instruments and Data Analysis
  • RSBH Values Judgment Inventory ?
  • Measures moral reasoning and social values
  • Valid and Reliable
  • Chronbach Alpha for moral side .81 - .88
  • Chronbach Alpha for social side .61 - .77
  • Levenes Test of Equality of Error Variances
  • Equal variances found
  • MANOVA and ANOVA procedures

32
Results from the moral value side consistent with
14 years of research
33
Moral reasoning scores by gender on the RSBH
Values Inventory
  • A significant difference exists by gender on
    moral reasoning scores.
  • Females 30.685 .920 a
  • Males 26.171 .663 b
  • P .0001
  • Observed power .977

34
Moral reasoning scores by status on the RSBH
Values Inventory
  • A significant difference exists by status on
    moral reasoning scores.
  • Nonathletes 31.531 1.143 a
  • Individual Sport 28.585 1.157 b
  • Team Sport 25.168 .499 c
  • P .0001
  • Observed power .999

35
Of real interest are social value scores compared
to the moral value scores
36
Social Value scores by gender on the RSBH Values
Inventory
  • A significant difference exists by gender on
    social value scores.
  • Females 38.990 .736 a

The purpose of this study was to
  • examine the effects of a cognitive sport
    character education program on high school
    students principled thinking (moral values of
    honesty, responsibility, and justice) versus
    social character (values of loyalty and
    dedication).

42
Subjects ( randomly selected )
Treatment Male (n27) Female
(n25) Control Male (n19)
Female (n22)
43
Treatment Moral Reasoning Program Implementation
  • Classes met twice weekly for 50 minutes
  • Held in Physical Education or General classes
  • Met over nine week term

44
Purpose
  • To teach students how to become active, critical
    thinkers, based on the democratic principles of
    Honesty, Responsibility, Justice, Respect

45
Moral Reasoning Scores on the RSBHV Inventory
Note 1. Higher scores more principled level of
reasoning Note 2. Significant difference pre to
posttest plt.05 Note 3. No change in control
scores pre to posttest

Moral Reasoning Scores by Gender on the RSBHV
Inventory
SEM .88 n 27
Note 1. Higher scores more principled level of
reasoning Note 2. Significant difference between
males and females
47
Social Reasoning Scores on the RSBHV Inventory
Note 1. Higher scores Greater use of loyalty
and sacrifice in decisions making Note 2. No
significant difference pre to posttest plt.05 Note
3. No change in Control scores pre to posttest

Social Reasoning Scores by Gender on the RSBHV
Inventory
SEM .65
Note 1. Higher scores Greater use of loyalty
and sacrifice in decisions making Note 2.
Significant difference between males and females

Discussion
  • 1. Cognitive Reasoning appears to improve over a
    nine week course.
  • 2. Social values appear higher than moral
    values.
  • 3. Loyalty and Sacrifice highly imbedded in how
    we teach and model sport.
  • Difficult to overcome
  • 4. Perhaps women are not as affected by the
    negatives of sport social modeling.
