Abstract
Japan Football Association (JFA) carries out overall approach to National team’s strengthening, youth development, coaches training. Especially, youth generation players learn about the severity of becoming professional football players, look at the reality myself and image for the future. In other words, youth players seriously seek out the problem of how they live in the real society, it is time to establish themselves (Erikson 1959). Therefore, we conducted the adaptability development program which applied the human resource development methods and the organization development methods to the youth (U-18) team belonging to the J-League (professional football league in Japan) in 2017. This program was composed of specialized tools such as TPI (Todai Personality Inventory) based on MMPI (Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory).
We used Sport Self- management Skill scale (Takemura et al. 2013) and the Belief in Cooperation Scale (Nagahama et al. 2009), to examine the effects of this program from a longitudinal perspective. Furthermore, to verify the effect from a qualitatively, we collected the free descriptions about the impression of the program from participants. From the analysis, it was shown that the score of Sport Self-management Skill and Belief in Cooperation improves by this program (p < .001). From the text analysis, various factor about program effect were clarified such as promotion of self-understanding, clarification of self-concepts and goal setting.
