Psychometric properties of the Child Sports Cohesion Questionnaire to Brazilian Portuguese

Rodrigo de Vasconcellos Pieri, Alberto Filgueiras

Resumo


Sport cohesion is a dynamic process that influences the tendency of team mem- bers to remain together until they achieve a goal. To measure task and social sport cohesion among children, the Child Spots Cohesion Questionnaire was developed by Martin et al. in 2012. The present study aimed to assess the psychometric pro- perties of the Brazilian-adapted version of this instrument. Reliability, validity and factorability were assessed in a sample of 280 children. Reliability was measured by Cronbach’s alpha and ranged between 0.80 and 0.87. Convergent validity showed high correlation between the instrument and a visual analogue scale that measured sport cohesion. Latent structure analysis revealed that a bifactor latent structure with a general factor and two independent factors had the best fit of the empirical data. Results support that the Brazilian-adapted version of the Child Spots Cohesion Ques- tionnaire is a good instrument to assess sport cohesion in Brazilian children.
