摘要:Based on the McKinsey Capacity Assessment Grid (McKinsey & Company, 2001), we generated 79 items to represent 14 dimensions of organizational capacity of national sport governing bodies in Ghana. The respondents (n = 226) from the regional branches of 22 national sport governing bodies in Ghana scored their level of agreement on a seven-point scale with each of the 79 items. Those items that did not correlate well with the total for the respective subscale and those subscales with reliability estimates lower than .6 were eliminated. Further, each subscale was subjected to factor analysis extracting only one factor. The top loading four items were retained to represent the subscale. The resulting 48 items representing 12 dimensions of organizational capacity were subjected to confirmatory factor analysis. As the fit indices did not meet with acceptable standards, we resorted to item parceling creating two parcels of two items each to represent a factor. The CFA of the parceled items showed that the fit indices were acceptable (χ2/df = 382.971/177 = 2.164 (p <.001); RMSEA = .072 (.062-.082); TLI = .93; CFI = .952). If the stability of the subscale structure of this instrument could be confirmed with a new data set from another national context, the scale would be a valuable tool to evaluate the organizational capacity of national sport governing bodies around the world.
