The Psychology of Retention in Sports: Understanding Work-Life Balance through the SOR Model
Abstrct
The reason for this study is to use the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) model to investigate how organizational support and coaching style affect work-life balance, psychological well-being and the effect they have on athlete retention. The data were analyzed using SEM. It consisted of 278 professional athletes in Jakarta and Medan. Therefore, the findings indicate that organizational support can significantly influence both work-life balance and psychological well-being, which are critical indices of retention. While coaching style positively affects psychological well-being, it has no direct impact on work-life balance. Therefore, holistic support strategies that go beyond performance-based programs are essential for sports organizations to address the mental health problems faced by athletes.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
