Data were collected from referees (N = 1609) in the United States (n = 978) and Spain (n = 631). In Study 1 (n = 512), a single-group exploratory structural equation model provided evidence for four factors: game knowledge, decision making, pressure, and communication. In Study 2 (n = 1153), multiple-group confirmatory factor analytic models provided evidence for partial factorial invariance by country, level of competition, team gender, and sport refereed. In Study 3 (n = 456), potential sources of referee self-efficacy information combined to account for a moderate or large amount of variance in each dimension of referee selfefficacy with years of referee experience, highest level refereed, physical/mental preparation, and environmental comfort, each exerting at least two statistically significant direct effects. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10553/43212 | ISSN: | 0895-2779 | DOI: | 10.1123/jsep.34.6.737 | Source: | Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology[ISSN 0895-2779],v. 34, p. 737-765 |
