Abstract
This study examined the interplay between Confucian values, athletic behavior, and team cohesion among student-athletes. A diverse cohort of student-athletes, spanning various grade levels and genders, participated in the research. The study delves into six key Confucian values: cultivation of appropriate behavior, filial piety, respect for others, adherence to societal norms, respect for authority, and rituals and etiquette. Results indicate a robust commitment to these values in athletic conduct, with particular emphasis on filial piety and respect for authority. Team cohesion assessments reveal strong team identities, positive moods, and a sense of belonging among athletes. Furthermore, correlations between adherence to Confucian values and team cohesion were observed, with ethical behavior and the importance of rituals and etiquette positively impacting team identity. Recommendations include ethical conduct training, mentorship programs, and continued research to enhance athlete development and foster a culturally aware and cohesive sports environment.
