A systematic observation of hostile aggression in Junior B hockey

Aggressive behaviours within the sport of hockey appear to be increasing in both prevalence and consequence (Biasca, Wirth, & Tegner, 2002). Accordingly, this area of inquiry is currently garnering a considerable amount of attention from society and academics alike. The problem however, is that our current understanding of these behaviours has been deemed both incomplete and unreliable. The inconsistencies inherent within this body of knowledge have been traced back to a variety of methodological shortcomings. The purpose of this investigation was to assess hostile aggression using a more ecologically valid and comprehensive research design. Ten Junior B hockey games were tapped and subsequently coded by three independent observers, using a validated operational list. Two hundred and fifty-nine behaviours were extrapolated and examined according to the score differential, period, position of the aggressor, status of the aggressor's team, and whether the aggressor was a member of the home or visiting team. It was concluded that the frequency of aggressive behaviours significantly differed according to the score differential, and status of the aggressor's team (p < .01). However, these hostile acts did not differ according the aggressor's position, period, and the home versus away status of the aggressor's team (p > .01). It was also determined that the majority of aggressive acts (69.1 1%) across these ten games went unsanctioned. This highlights the profound influence that "positive misses" have on penalty measures of aggression, while concurrently highlighting the ecological validity present with observational designs. Consequently, by assessing aggressive behaviour in a more inclusive and ecologically valid manner, a more accurate picture of the frequency and distribution of hostile aggression may be provided.

Systematic Observation of Youth Ice Hockey Coaches During Games

The behaviors of youth ice hockey coaches during games are examined using the Coaches Observation System for Games. This tool identifies 16 types of coach behaviors and eight targets of such behaviors. Findings reveal that coaches spend 51.2% of their time simply observing the game. Other common coach behaviors are organizing (15%), directing the game (8.1%) and giving information (6.1%). Targets of these behaviors include players in action (40.9%), on the bench (30.4%) and in transition (22.3%).

Le phénomène d’influence entre pairs : observation des interactions sociales à l’intérieur de groupes d’entraînement aux habiletés sociales impliquant des élèves ayant des troubles du comportement et des pairs aidants sans trouble du comportement

Récemment, un nombre grandissant de jeunes ayant des troubles du comportement ont été intégrés dans les classes régulières. Afin de soutenir cette intégration, plusieurs programmes d’intervention ont émergé et été implantés dans les écoles québécoises. Parmi ces programmes, on retrouve le programme l’Allié, qui se distingue des autres, notamment, par l’utilisation de pairs aidants. Ce cadre d’intervention prometteur soulève cependant certains questionnements sur la possibilité d’influence négative entre les jeunes. L’objectif de l’étude est de décrire, dans une approche comportementale, le processus d'influence entre pairs. Une méthodologie d’observation systématique des interactions sociales est privilégiée. Les résultats indiquent qu’il n’y a pas eu d’influence négative dans les groupes l’Allié. Les comportements perturbateurs ont eu plus de chances de cesser lorsque les participants les ont ignorés, que lorsque les pairs ont réagi à ces comportements. L’ignorance intentionnelle d’un comportement semble donc constituer un processus d’influence important dans les groupes de jeunes.
