Abstract

Scores on three subscale of the Body Esteem Scale were analyzed for the efffect of group participation on body esteem. Intercollegiate women athletes from three sports (basketball, n=9; Volleyball, n=10; and softball, n=12) and a control group of 34 women who did not participate in athletics were respondents. Scores on Weight Concern and Physical Condition significantly discriminated between the groups. On Weight Concern the mean of the control group was significantly lower than those of the athletic groups. On Physical Condition the control group mean was significantly lower than that of the basketball group. Other comparisons were not significant. Verf.-Referat
