The study examined the psychometric properties of the Belgian coach version of the Coach-Athlete Relationship Questionnaire (CART-Q). The questionnaire includes three dimensions (Closeness, Commitment, and Complementarity) in a model that intends to measure the quality of the coach-athlete relationship. Belgian coaches (n=144) of athletes who performed at various competition levels in such sports as football, basketball, and volleyball responded to the CART-Q and to the Leadership Scale for Sport (LSS). A confirmatory factor analysis proved to be slightly more satisfactory for a three-order factor model, compared with a hierarchical first-order factor model. The three factors showed acceptable internal consistency scores. Moreover, functional associations between the three factors and coach leadership behaviors were found offering support to the instrument's concurrent validity. The findings support previous validation studies and verify the psychometric properties of the CART-Q applied to Belgian coaches of team sports.
本研究考察了比利时教练版的《教练-运动员关系问卷》（CART-Q）的心理测量学特性。该问卷包含三个维度（亲近、承诺和互补），旨在测量教练-运动员关系的质量。在足球、篮球和排球等运动项目中，不同比赛水平的运动员的比利时教练（n=144）对 CART-Q 和运动领导力量表（LSS）进行了回应。与层次式一阶因子模型相比，三阶因子模型的验证性因子分析结果略为理想。三个因素显示出可接受的内部一致性得分。此外，还发现了三个因素与教练领导行为之间的功能关联，为该工具的同时效度提供了支持。研究结果支持了先前的验证研究，并验证了适用于比利时团队运动教练的 CART-Q 的心理测量学特性。
