Question 1

An individual who plays tennis once a year would NOT be considered:&#10;A) Highly involved&#10;B) Not involved&#10;C) Situationally involved&#10;D) Contextually involved

High involvement implies a strong interest and engagement in an activity, which is not reflected in playing tennis only once a year.

Question 2

Sport involvement represents a/an ____________ concept.&#10;A) Personality&#10;B) Cultural&#10;C) Demographic&#10;D) Attitudinal

Accepted Answer

Sport involvement is considered an attitudinal concept because it reflects an individual's psychological attachment or interest in a sport, which is an attitude or perspective rather than a demographic, cultural, or personality trait.

Question 3

The two types of sport involvement are:&#10;A) Enduring involvement / Fleeting involvement&#10;B) Behavioural involvement / Situational involvement&#10;C) Contextual involvement / Demographic involvement&#10;D) Situational involvement / Enduring involvement

Accepted Answer

Situational involvement refers to a temporary interest in a particular sport or game, while enduring involvement is a more complex and long-term relationship with a sport or physical activity. Therefore, D is the correct answer as it accurately defines the two types of sport involvement.

Accepted Answer

Situational involvement can vary depending on the specific situation and context, and may also change over time.

Question 5

A resident of Barcelona who knows about Barcelona FC but has never attended a match would be said to have a low level of enduring involvement.

Accepted Answer

Enduring involvement refers to a long-term, sustained interest in a particular domain, such as a sports team. Knowing about Barcelona FC indicates some level of interest, but never attending a match suggests a lower level of engagement and involvement with the team.

Question 6

A child wants to play soccer, but they do not live anywhere close to a soccer field. This is an example of _____________ factors impeding participation.&#10;A) Financial&#10;B) Societal&#10;C) Environmental&#10;D) Time

Accepted Answer

The child's proximity to a soccer field is an environmental factor that is impeding their participation in soccer. Financial factors may hinder participation if the child's family cannot afford equipment or league fees, societal factors may come into play if the child faces discrimination or lack of access based on their identity, and time constraints may limit the child's ability to attend practices or games. However, in this scenario, the lack of a nearby soccer field is the specific environmental factor impeding the child's participation.

Question 7

____________ is/are probably the most important factor that influences the development of sport involvement.&#10;A) Finances&#10;B) Knowledge&#10;C) Motivation&#10;D) Environment

Accepted Answer

Motivation is likely the most important factor that influences the development of sport involvement. Without a desire or drive to participate in a sport, individuals may not seek out opportunities to engage in physical activity. Financial resources, knowledge, and environment may play supporting roles in the development of sport involvement, but without motivation, individuals may not progress in their participation.

Question 8

An individual who lacks financial resources or the time to participate in sports is facing high levels of:&#10;A) Perceived constraints&#10;B) Physical constraints&#10;C) Lack of involvement&#10;D) Amotivation

Accepted Answer

Perceived constraints are internal barriers that prevent individuals from participating in leisure activities such as sports, and lack of financial resources or time can be perceived as constraints. Physical constraints refer to actual physical limitations preventing participation, lack of involvement implies a lack of interest or motivation in sports, and amotivation refers to a lack of motivation or drive to participate in any activity.

Question 9

__________ levels of service quality are more likely to lead to __________ levels of sport involvement.&#10;A) High / High&#10;B) High / Low&#10;C) Low / Low&#10;D) Low / High

Accepted Answer

High levels of service quality are more likely to lead to high levels of sport involvement as customers are more satisfied with the service they receive, leading to a greater likelihood of returning and increased loyalty to the sport or activity. Low levels of service quality are less likely to engage customers and may even discourage them from participating in the future.

Accepted Answer

All of the given choices involve continued participation or interest in sports, indicating higher levels of sports involvement. Participating in a marathon two years in a row suggests a commitment to the sport and a desire to improve. Continuing a gym membership indicates ongoing engagement in physical activity and potentially pursuing fitness goals. Renewing season tickets shows a continued interest in a particular sports team and a desire to attend games regularly.
