The Relationship Between Environmental Support and Participation in Table Tennis:The Mediating Role of Self-Efficacy and the Moderating Role of Knowledge of Skills
This study explores the relationship between environmental support and table tennis participation behavior,and examines the mediating and moderating effects of self-efficacy and knowledge of skills between the two.The method of convenience sampling was used to collect data from 394 table tennis fans through a self-designed questionnaire.The results show that interpersonal support positively predicts participation behavior,with self-efficacy partially mediating the relationship between interpersonal relationships and participation behavior.Informa-tion support also positively predicts participation behavior,with self-efficacy fully mediating the relationship.Knowl-edge of skills moderates the first half of the mediation model.The study suggests that mass table tennis is character-ized by"strong interpersonal communication"and"emphasis on knowledge of skills."The interaction between in-terpersonal support and self-efficacy negatively and indirectly affects the participation behavior of table tennis enthu-siasts.For"table tennis participation,"it is recommended to optimize the mass table tennis competition mode and innovate the competition management system to enable participants to find opponents of comparable levels,thereby stimulating their enthusiasm for participating in table tennis.
