Abstract
To overcome this problem, this study sought to develop a scale based on the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT) that discriminates between four types of aggression in sports −strategic, reactive, impulsive and hostile− from the perspectives of ‘acceptability' and ‘intention'. In Study 1, illustrations depicting scenes from a lacrosse tournament were created and a evaluation scale was developed. In Study 2, the validity of the scale was assessed and the characteristics of each type of aggression were clarified. The results revealed the overall validity of the developed aggression scale and also indicated that contact sport athletes can control their aggression, with high level athletes employing aggression strategically.
