孩子，讓我幫你！談競技運動中的父母涉入議題

Let me help you my child: talk about parental involvement issues in competitive sports

意近年來，相當多的研究注意到父母在孩童及青少年競技運動參與中所扮演的角色，而父母涉入 (parental involvement) 被認為是影響孩童及青少年競技運動參與的重要因素之一。過去在競技運動中的研究皆顯示，父母涉入會對孩童造成正負面的影響；然而，雖然目前有關父母涉入的相關實證性研究相當豐富，但在概念詮釋及測量檢驗上卻有所限制；另一方面，過去探討父母涉入的相關研究皆是以西方運動情境及文化為主，是否可推論至我國的競技運動文化仍有待商榷。藉由本文初步的介紹後，作者提出三個未來研究方面，首先，未來研究者可參閱國內探討父母涉入的研究，從中去延伸或以質性研究方式去擴展及補充，以更深層的探究父母涉入的概念。第二，現有測量工具的發展及再檢驗；第三，父母涉入動機的探討；最後，檢驗父母涉入概念模式。期望藉由未來研究結果可作為運動教育策略制定上的基礎，讓運動教育者及父母能共同創造出最適合孩童競技運動發展的最佳情境，進而幫助孩童運動員在生理、心理及社會層面皆有正向的發展。

In recent years, many studies have documented the roles which parents play in their children’s competitive sports involvement. In particular, parental involvement has been identified as one of the significant factors which influence children’s competitive sports involvement. Past studies on competitive sports have revealed that parental involvement can have both positive and negative effects on children. Nevertheless, even though there is a vast array of empirical research related to parental involvement, measurement instruments which can be used are limited. On the other hand, past studies which examined parental involvement have mainly been based on the Western culture and sports scenarios within, which have yet to be discussed to confirm whether the findings would be valid in Taiwan. This paper serves as an initial introduction whereby the author proposed three future research directions for Parental Involvement. First, future research can extend or conduct qualitative research to expand and deepen the knowledge on the Parental Involvement concept. Second, the development and revalidation of current Parental Involvement measurements. Third, to investigate the motivation of Parental Involvement. Lastly, to validate the conceptual model of parental involvement. The results of future research may become the foundation of sports education strategies allowing sports educator and parents to create a better environment more suitable for the development of adolescents’ competitive sports. Most importantly, to help adolescents have a positive physical, psychological, and social development.
