Abstract: It was the purpose of this study to explore the feasibility of constructing an instrument which can be utilized to identify the attitudes of coaches of women's intercollegiate basketball teams and female intercollegiate basketball players toward the conduct of intercollegiate basketball programs for women. The construction of the instrument included: 1. Revision of Sisley's situation-response scale for use with coaches of women's intercollegiate basketball teams and female intercollegiate basketball players projected into a coaching role. 2. Content evaluation and revision of the basketball situation response scale by a group of five judges. 3. Rating the scale items (content validity) and ranking of responses (for scoring) by a jury of nine expert judges. 4. Administration of the scale to coaches and players to determine scale reliability.
