Group Dynamics TIPS!
Be able to define the terms ‘group’ and ‘team’. You need to understand Steiner’s model of
group performance. Be able to explain the Ringlemann effect and
social loafing and how they damage the cohesiveness of a team.
Learn the factors affecting the cohesiveness of a group and how any breakdowns can be prevented.
Learn the characteristics of an effective leader. Describe emergent and prescribed leaders. You need to be able to understand the different
perspectives on and theories of leadership.

Groups“Groups are those social aggregates that
involve mutual awareness and the potential for interaction” (McGrath)
GROUPS
(Carron)
A collective identity
A sense of shared purposeA clear structure for communication

Group Cohesion“The extent to which a group sticks
together in pursuit of a common goal.”
TASK COHESIONThe way team members
work together tosuccessfully complete
a task, e.g. a football team setsOut to win by adopting attackingTactics at home & away matches
Vital in INTERACTIVE Sports, e.g. hockey
SOCIAL COHESIONThe personal relationships within a group which relies
on individuals enjoyingsocial interaction, e.g. strong
Bond developed whilst on tour.
Vital in CO-ACTIVE sports, e.g. track and field

Group Dynamics“The social processes operating within the
group between individual members.”
SUB GROUPSSmall groups
contained within the whole group
GROUP DYNAMIC SOCIOGRAM
The best way ofillustrating the
group dynamics ofa team.
TO ACHIEVE COHESION• Break down cliques
and sub groups • Separate pairs
• Integrate isolates
Team sports rely onunits within the team
Working closelytogether

Carron’s model

Steiner’s ModelACTUAL= POTENTIAL - LOSSES DUE TO
PRODUCTIVITY PRODUCTIVITY FAULTY PROCESSES
(AP) (PP) (FP)
The team performance at any given time (due to successful
interaction)
The maximum
capability of the group
when cohesiveness is strongest
Factors that go wrong in team performance
which impede/ prevent group
cohesion e.g. co-ordination losses & motivational losses
GROUP COHESION IS THE FORCE THAT BINDS A GROUP TOGETHER, HELPING TO PREVENT FAULTY PROCESSES.

Faulty ProcessesCo-ordination Losseso These occur when the ‘operational effectiveness’ of the group cannot be sustained for the whole match.
o Planned strategies/tactics may go wrong due to positional error or bad timing, e.g. Line out in rugby.A co-ordination loss that leads to a
breakdown in team work is called
the RINGLEMANN EFFECT. Problems with team co-ordination are more likely to increase as the
number of team members increase.
Motivation Losseso This may occur if the task is too difficult.
o Also an individual might suffer loss of motivation causing them to withdraw effort and coast through that part of the game.
A motivation loss that leads to a reduction in effort is called SOCIAL LOAFING. This is called when an individuals efforts go unnoticed or when someone feels like the others on their team are not trying hard enough. People with low SC tend to be loafers.

Group Locomotion
“ The process that explains the reasons why the group has formed. It
symbolises the activity of the team.”
For locomotion to be efficient there must
be a LEADER to ensure the co-
ordination of the team.
****Don’t always assume that good players make good leaders! Make sure
you know the characteristics of a
good leader****

Attribution Theory TIPS!
You should be able to identify the reasons for success and failure in sport.
You need to understand ‘Weiner’s Attribution Model’ and be able to relate it to specific sporting situations.
Learn the definitions of ‘mastery orientation’ and ‘learned helplessness’.

Attribution theory looks at the common reasons coaches and players give for their success or failure in sport.
Weiner’s Attribution Model
LOCUS OF CAUSALITYis the performance outcome caused
by- INTERNAL factors
under the control of the performerability / effort
- EXTERNAL factorsbeyond the control of the performer
task difficulty / luck
STABILITYis the performance outcome caused
by- STABLE factors
fixed factors which don’t change with time
ability / task difficulty- UNSTABLE factors
factors which can vary with timeeffort / luck

Attribution Retraining
The coach changes the usual external attributions for failure into internal, unstable controllable factors.
The athlete has little control over ability, luck or task difficulty but has complete control over EFFORT. Effort is
internal and unstable and can be changed by the performer.
Attributing a lack of success to internal and unstable factors will help to prevent learned helplessness.
LEARNED HELPLESSNESSA belief acquired over time that one has no control over events
and that failure is inevitable. A feeling of ‘hopelessness.’
