EXPLORATORY FACTOR ANALYSIS ON SPORTS INTELLIGENCE OF MALE FOOTBALL ATHLETES THAILAND NATIONAL SPORTS UNIVERSITY
Main Article Content
Abstract
This research aimed to analyze the exploratory factor on sports intelligence of male football players at the National Sports University. The sample group in this research was
144 male football players at the National Sports University in the 48th Physical Education Games "Sukhothai Games". It was obtained from a 2-step random sampling. In step 1, simple random sampling was performed by selecting 8 campuses by drawing lots, divided into 2 campuses per region. In step 2, stratified random sampling was performed, with 18 people per campus. The research instrument was a 27-item questionnaire with an IOC value of 0.60-1.00 and α = 0.87. Data were analyzed by exploratory factor analysis using principal component analysis and rotation of component axes using the varimax method. The results of the factor analysis of the sports intelligence survey of male football players at the National Sports University showed that 6 components, arranged by eigenvalue from most to least as follows: 1) Self-control ability consists of 6 variables, Eigen value 5.059, explaining variance percent 18.739 2) Communication and teamwork ability consists of 5 variables, Eigen value 4.189, explaining variance percent 15.513 3) Ability to use offensive-defensive strategies consists of 4 variables, Eigen value 3.763, explaining variance percent 13.936 4) Adaptability consists of 4 variables, Eigen value 3.755, explaining variance percent 13.909 5) Problem solving ability consists of 4 variables, Eigen value 3.638, explains 13.476 percent of the variance. 6) The ability to perceive and process information consists of 4 variables with Eigen value 3.418 explains 12.661 percent of the variance
