Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the psychometric nature of athletes regarding prosocial and antisocial behavior in sports. The sample of this research is athletes in junior high or high school in the Special Region of Yogyakarta and the Province of Bali. For prosocial behavior, the reliability test showed a statistical data of 0.780 for the school athletes in the Special Region of Yogyakarta and 0.775 for the school athletes in the Province of Bali. For the antisocial behavior, results showed 0.817 for the school athletes in the Special Region of Yogyakarta while 0.501 for the school athletes in the Province of Bali. This study concludes that Prosocial and Antisocial Behavior in Sport Scale (PABSS) can be used to measure the prosocial and antisocial behavior of junior high school athletes and senior high school athletes in various regions of Indonesia. It was also found that PABSS can be used with different genders.
