Sažetak
Acts of corruption in tennis represent a problem for all tennis participants. Match-fixing and different types of malfeasance are hard to prove, however, there are several proven cases of match- fixing connected with betting houses and corruption. In 2008, the Tennis Integrity Unit organization was founded with the objective of detecting corruption practices in tennis. The aim of this paper is to construct a questionnaire for assessing the corruption intensity in tennis, as well as to verify the measurement properties of this newly constructed questionnaire. A scale consisting of 36 particles with responses on a five-degree Likert scale was constructed. The questions refer to the perception of various different types of corruptive actions in tennis. The verification of metric characteristics was completed on a sample of 202 students (59, 4% male and 40, 6% female students) from the Faculty of Kinesiology University of Zagreb, with an average age of 23 years. The reliability of the overall result from 32 particles was determined as a Cronbach coefficient of internal consistency which amounted to a very well 0, 90. The average correlation between scale particles is 0, 221. The results show that the scale could be more significantly reduced, while it would still maintain satisfactory measuring properties. Upon completing the research, the conclusion can be made that the appearance of sports betting houses in recent times significantly contributed to the occurrence of corruption and increasingly common match-fixing in tennis, and thus also to the perception of corruption in tennis.
