[The effect of a modification of the rules on the change in the players attitude toward a sport].
The purpose of the study was to investigate the effect of a change of rules in Ringette on the attitude of the players toward the sport. A total of 332 players and observers (coaches, officials and parents) completed two attitude scales dealing with an old and a new rule on zone restriction in Ringette. Results, (331) = 22.23, p less than .0001, indicate that there has been a change of attitude in the subjects. The fact that Ringette is played with a new rule (no zone restriction) seems to be responsible for a more favourable attitude toward the sport. Reasons explaining this change of attitude are discussed in the paper.
