The authors sought to test a model of transformational leadership with regard to its indirect effect on sports performance through the mediating effects of the athlete's intrinsic motivation. University athletes rated the transformational leadership of their coaches and their own intrinsic motivation, while the coaches assesses the athletes' performance.

Intrinsic motivation was found to be a mediator of transformational leadership and sports performance, such that transformational leadership may enhance intrinsic interest.
