Effects of Physical Fitness, Player Ability and Coaching Feedback on the Athletes’ Satisfaction and Athletic Performance in China: Moderating Role of Teamwork Competencies
Abstrct
Athletic performance is the foremost requisite for ensuring survival, and achieving growth, in the field of sports. Both, regulators, and scholars are increasingly interested in investigating this issue, as it plays out in diverse settings. Thus, the purpose of the current study is to examine the impact of physical fitness, player ability and coaching feedback on athlete satisfaction and performance in Chinese sports centers. This study further analyzes the moderating impact of teamwork among the nexus of athlete satisfaction and athletic performance. This study collects data from primary sources, such as questionnaires, and subsequently adopts the smart-PLS to analyze the data by using measurement and structural model assessment. The results reveal that physical fitness, player ability and coaching feedback have a significant and positive association with athlete satisfaction and performance. The findings also indicate that athlete satisfaction significantly mediates inter-relationships between physical fitness, player ability, coaching feedback, and athlete performance in China sports centers. This study has provided insightful guidelines to policymakers interested in developing policies and training programs aimed at improvements in levels of athlete satisfaction and performance in sports centers in China.

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.
