댄스스포츠 참여정도유형과 동기요인 및 지속요인과의 관계

초록

The purpose of the study is to examine the relationship between participation patterns, motives and adherence in dance sport. A total of 355 adults who participated in dance sport in C and A cities were surveyed and finally selected for data analyses. Participation patterns and their relationship with motives were analyzed with use of frequency, correlation and multiple regression analyses. All the statistical analyses were performed using, SPSS 21.0. The results are as follows. First, as adults more often participate in dance sports, they demonstrated high levels of internal and external motivation. Second, duration and frequency were positively associated with the adherence; whereas, frequency was correlated with the sub-factors of adherence (i.e., strengthening and possibility). Third, tendency and strengthening had positive effects on the internal and external motivation while possibility had effects only on the external motivation. As the external motivation was more likely to influence on the adherence than internal motivation, adults should be provided with externally motivating environments. There is a need for further studies that aim to investigate various other motivational factors and their relationships with exercise adherence.
