“…The REFS tool, as far as we know, has been used previously in studies about team sports such as football, basketball, handball [13,15,16]. In the abovementioned studies, REFS total scores and, more specifically, levels of perceived game knowledge and decision-making skills show significant differences according to gender, level of education and level of experience, but these findings are not always confirmed in other studies [17]. The samples used in the mentioned studies included below 200 participants, and all the participants were speaking the same language, contrary to our study on volleyball referees.…”

“…In sport, in general, but in refereeing in particular, there is evidence of a positive, but variable relationship between self-efficacy and performance (Diotaiuti et al, 2017;Eskiyecek et al, 2019;Guillén et al, 2019;Laforge-MacKenzie & Sullivan, 2014;Lirgg, Feltz, & Merrie, 2016;Moritz et al, 2013). The model of Guillén and Feltz (2011) mention several self-efficacy outcomes, such as faster and more accurate decisions, lower stress levels or greater commitment to refereeing.…”

“…For instance, self-efficacy, defined by Bandura (1997) as the belief an individual has in being able to execute a specific task to achieve a particular outcome, is an individual-level cognitive factor that is essential for the adaptation process (Kozlowski et al, 2001;Maddux, 1995), either at the individual-level or team-level (Griffin & Hesketh, 2003;LePine, 2003;Pulakos et al, 2002). While self-efficacy is widely studied in sport and exercise contexts (Guillén, Feltz, Gilson, & Dithurbide, 2019), research on football refereeing has started to develop with the conceptual work of Guillén and Feltz (2011) that stimulated the development and adaptation of the Referee Self-Efficacy Scale (REFS) to different countries (Eskiyecek, Satici, Ozaltas, Savucu, & Gul, 2019;Guillén et al, 2019;Karaçam & Pulur, 2017;Labudek et al, 2019;Myers et al, 2012). Nevertheless, the study of self-efficacy as a predictor of adaptation is a novel contribution to the football and futsal refereeing team literature.…”

“…In addition to having an excellent level of fitness, understanding of the rules of the game, and sufficient experience, referees must also have a strong mentality and low anxiety levels. They must also have a good level of self-confidence (Eskiyecek et al, 2019).…”
