HUESCAR HERNANDEZ, Elisa; LOPEZ MORA, Clara  y  CERVELLO GIMENO, Eduardo. Relationship of Leadership Styles, Group Cohesion, Power Equipment and Performance in Non-Professional Soccer Players. Univ. Psychol. [online]. 2017, vol.16, n.4, pp.125-138. ISSN 1657-9267.  https://doi.org/10.11144/javeriana.upsy16-4.relc.

The objective was to analyze the relationships between types of leadership (task and social), cohesion, team potency and performance in 334 federated players of the categories Alevín, Cadet, Juvenile and Absolute, with a mean age of 15.97 (SD = 3.31). The questionnaires used were Authentic Leadership (ALQ), Task (LSS), Group Cohesion (CG), Team Power (CPEA), and Performance that showed optimal adjustment indexes (χ2 / DF = 1.313 p = 0; CFI = 0.997; TLI = 0.994; RMSEA = 0.032; SRMS = 0.0343). The results indicate that leadership style, especially leadership task (p = 0.37) indirectly influences performance through CG (p = 0.17) and CPE (p = 0.21). In conclusion, it is proposed to improve group performance by optimizing individual behavior models.
