Psychological ownership (PO) is a state in which an individual feels possession over an object, organization, or entity (eg, PO over the organization where one works, PO over the profession one serves). Understanding PO could provide insight into the "vitality of the profession" as defined in the Prioritized Research Agenda for the Athletic Training Profession.
To explore athletic trainers' (ATs') PO over their employing organizations and the athletic training profession.
Cross-sectional study.
Web-based survey.
Clinically practicing ATs who were active members of the National Athletic Trainers' Association.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Demographic variables, Psychological Ownership Questionnaire (POQ) scores, and Psychological Ownership Questionnaire for athletic training (POQ-AT) scores were the primary outcomes measured. Descriptive statistics were calculated for the demographic variables, POQ and POQ-AT overall scores, form scores, and dimension scores. Nonparametric tests were used to investigate differences between the POQ and POQ-AT by demographic characteristics.
The ATs indicated greater PO over the athletic training profession (Z = -3.45, P = .001) than over their employing organizations. They displayed greater belongingness (Z = -9.51, P < .001) and self-identity (Z = -8.71, P < .001) and less territoriality (Z = -5.52, P < .001) and accountability (Z = -5.33, P < .001) over their profession than their organization. Those ATs who supervised others had higher overall POQ (Mann-Whitney U test = 34 372, P < .001) and overall POQ-AT (U = 36 624, P = .014) scores than ATs who did not supervise others. A difference was evident in overall POQ (Kruskal-Wallis statistical analysis H4 = 20.47, P < .001) and overall POQ-AT (H4 = 21.34, P < .001) scores by years of experience.
Respondents indicated greater PO over their profession than their employing organizations. They demonstrated greater self-identity and belongingness and less territoriality and accountability over the athletic training profession than over their employing organization, suggesting that they were connecting aspirations and accomplishments with the profession but connecting duty and responsibility with their organizations. Years of experience and supervisor status may play roles in the level of organizational PO.
心理所有权（PO）是指个体对某个物体、组织或实体产生占有感的一种状态（例如，对工作单位的 PO、对所从事职业的 PO）。理解 PO 可以深入了解“职业活力”，这是运动训练专业优先研究议程中定义的概念。
探讨运动训练员（ATs）对其雇主组织和运动训练职业的 PO。
横断面研究。
基于网络的调查。
国家运动训练协会的活跃成员，临床实践中的 ATs。
人口统计学变量、心理所有权问卷（POQ）评分和运动训练心理所有权问卷（POQ-AT）评分是主要的测量指标。对人口统计学变量、POQ 和 POQ-AT 的总分、形式分和维度分进行描述性统计。使用非参数检验来根据人口统计学特征调查 POQ 和 POQ-AT 之间的差异。
ATs 对运动训练专业的 PO （Z = -3.45，P =.001）强于对其雇主组织的 PO。他们表现出更强的归属感（Z = -9.51，P <.001）和自我认同（Z = -8.71，P <.001），以及较弱的领土意识（Z = -5.52，P <.001）和问责意识（Z = -5.33，P <.001）。与组织相比，他们对自己的职业有更强的 PO。那些监督他人的 ATs 的 POQ 总分（Mann-Whitney U 检验 = 34372，P <.001）和 POQ-AT 总分（U = 36624，P =.014）均高于不监督他人的 ATs。POQ 总分（Kruskal-Wallis 统计分析 H4 = 20.47，P <.001）和 POQ-AT 总分（H4 = 21.34，P <.001）的差异明显。
受访者表示，他们对自己的职业的 PO 强于对雇主组织的 PO。他们在运动训练专业上表现出更强的自我认同和归属感，以及较弱的领土意识和问责意识，这表明他们将职业抱负和成就与职业联系起来，但将责任和责任与组织联系起来。工作年限和主管地位可能在组织 PO 水平上发挥作用。
