Abstract
Participation motivation in youth sports was examined with boys (n = 720) and girls (n = 418) at a summer sports school. Questionnaire responses indicated that the most important reasons for participating were to improve skills, have fun, learn new skills, challenge, and to be physically fit. Factor analyses suggested achievement/status, team, fitness, energy release, situational factors, skill development, friendship and fun as dimensions of participation motivation. Boys placed more importance on achievement/status reasons than girls did, but generally the responses of boys and girls were similar. Verf.-Referat
