摘要：The study was conducted with the main objective of exploring the relationships
between self-efficacy, organisational commitment, job satisfaction and
satisfaction with life among a cohort of amateur sport coaches in South Africa.
This study is premised within a post-positivism cross-sectional quantitative
research design, and a total of 250 conveniently selected amateur sports coaches
participated in the study. The statistical analysis of the collected data included
descriptive statistics, reliability and validity analysis as well as correlation
analysis. Further, confirmatory factor analysis and a structural path modelling
were undertaken to assess the relationship between the constructs under
investigation. The results of the study indicate that there is a significant positive
relationship between self-efficacy and organisational commitment, organisational
commitment and job satisfaction, organisational commitment and satisfaction
with life and self-efficacy with satisfaction with life. While the study,
surprisingly, did not find any significant relationship between self-efficacy and
job satisfaction as well as job satisfaction and satisfaction with life, it is important
that this aspect also receive attention and importance in the career of amateur
sports coaches. Based on these results, it is recommended that further research
from a predictive validity perspective be pursued in order to substantiate the
findings and to improve the generalisability thereof.
