Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the attitude of recreation leaders toward supervision. The attitude of recreation leaders toward supervision was assessed through a questionnaire which dealt with attitude toward their recreation coordinators' supervision. The subjects chosen for this study were current professional recreation leaders working for the Indiana Department of Correction in the men, women, and juvenile correctional facilities. The majority of the recreation leaders displayed negative attitudes toward supervision. The findings of this study may be used by recreation coordinators to modify their supervisory behavior and/or recreational environment in order to facilitate recreation leaders acquiring positive attitudes toward their supervision.
