Ali se plesalke in plesalci enako dobro odzivajo na trening socialnih spretnosti

Šifrar, Tina (author)

Trening socialnih spretnosti je izjemno pomemben za uspeh športnih plesalcev, saj prispeva k izboljšanju medosebne komunikacije ter povečuje učinkovitost sodelovanja v partnerskem odnosu in zadovoljstvo na plesnih tekmovanjih. Raziskava je bila osredotočena na proučevanje razlik v odzivanju na trening socialnih spretnosti med moškimi in ženskimi pri vrhunskih športnih plesalcih. V raziskavi je sodelovalo 21 parov športnega plesa, 21 plesalk in 21 plesalcev latinskoameriških in standardnih plesov, starih od 18 do 42 let. Za analizo medsebojnih odnosov je bil uporabljen vprašalnik o medosebnih spretnostih. Analiza sprememb v dimenzijah socialnih spretnosti na celotnem vzorcu ni ugotovila statistično značilnih razlik med plesalci in plesalkami, vendar pa so rezultati pokazali, da so plesalke v kontrolni skupini med obema merjenjema napredovale pri emocionalnem nadzoru in socialni izraznosti. Nasprotno pa je bil pri plesalcih v kontrolni skupini zaznan pomemben upad pri teh dimenzijah. V eksperimentalni skupini ni bilo razlik v odzivih na trening socialnih spretnosti. Ti rezultati kažejo, da spol lahko vpliva na razvoj nekaterih socialnih spretnosti v kontekstu športnega plesa, kar odpira nove poti za nadaljnje raziskave in razvoj specifičnih programov treninga socialnih spretnosti.

• Title: Do male and female dancers respond equally well to training in social skills?

Abstract

Social skills training is essential for the success of competitive dancers for several reasons, including improved interpersonal communication, increased efficacy in partnership collaboration, and greater satisfaction in competitive dancing. This study focused on examining gender differences in response to social skills training among elite competitive dancers. The research involved 21 dancing couples, comprising 21 female and 21 male participants in Latin American and standard dances, aged between 18 and 42 years. A questionnaire on Interpersonal Skills was used to analyze the interpersonal relationships. The analysis of changes in social skills dimensions across the entire sample did not reveal statistically significant differences between male and female dancers. However, the results indicated that female dancers in the control group improved in emotional regulation and social expressiveness between the two measurement points. In contrast, male dancers in the control group experienced a significant decline in these dimensions. No differences in responses were detected in the experimental group. These results suggest that gender may influence the development of certain social skills within the context of competitive dancing, opening new avenues for further research and the development of tailored social skills training programs.
