Özet:
This study investigated the impact of ZGiRLS, a sport-based youth development program (YDP) that seeks to empower adolescent girls by teaching psychological skills. Sport-based YDPs have shown great potential for promoting healthy psychological development (Anderson-Butcher et al., 2013), and may even serve a preventative function by providing an effective setting for developing positive traits, attitudes, and skills (Weissberg, Kumpfer, & Seligman, 2003). The purpose of this study was to conduct a program evaluation to explore the effectiveness of ZGiRLS. Four specific aims of the study were to examine (a) a change in psychological skills (i.e., self-talk and goal setting), (b) a change in cognitive emotion regulation, (c) a change in negative and positive mental health outcomes (i.e., depression, anxiety, self-esteem, resilience), and (d) cognitive emotion regulation as a mediator in the relationship between psychological skills and mental health outcomes.
Participants were 107 adolescent girls (Mean age = 12.35; SD = 1.41), enrolled in an 8-session curriculum program. Utilizing a pre- and post-test design, ZGiRLS participants responded to the following questionnaires: Test of Performance Strategies, Athletic Coping Skills Inventory, Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire, Revised Child Anxiety and Depression Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, and Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale.
The mediated model was evaluated with path analysis based on maximum likelihood estimation with SPSS Amos 25. Bootstrapped results of indirect, direct, and total effects were obtained. Results from the respecified model, (&khgr;2 = 99.84, df = 9, p = <.001), indicate that self-talk predicted cognitive emotion regulation, anxiety, depression, and resilience. Goal setting did not predict cognitive emotion regulation or mental health outcomes. Furthermore, psychological skills did not predict negative or positive mental health outcomes indirectly through cognitive emotion regulation, which suggests that another mechanism may account for these relationships. Findings suggest that the ZGiRLS curriculum program was successful in teaching psychological skills and enhancing protective factors in adolescent girls and thus, this approach may be utilized to cultivate other positive traits. Finally, findings contribute to the literature on sport-based YDPs, and offer key implications for program design, curriculum development, and implementation.
