Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of socializing agents (parents, siblings, friends, peers) on dropout and continued participation of adolescent girls in male-dominated sports, with a specific interest in examining functions of social support (emotional, esteem, informational, instrumental, companionship, validation and role-modeling) provided by the socializing agents during early-adolescence. This study examined differences in social support across types of sport (male-dominated, neutral and feminine), differences across participation status (dropout and continued participation) during late-adolescence, and differences across cultures (American and Israeli).

520 $a Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of socializing agents (parents, siblings, friends, peers) on dropout and continued participation of adolescent girls in male-dominated sports, with a specific interest in examining functions of social support (emotional, esteem, informational, instrumental, companionship, validation and role-modeling) provided by the socializing agents during early-adolescence. This study examined differences in social support across types of sport (male-dominated, neutral and feminine), differences across participation status (dropout and continued participation) during late-adolescence, and differences across cultures (American and Israeli).
520 $a Methods: A total of 146 American and Israeli females who participated in organized sports during early-adolescence completed a questionnaire. A series of MANOVAs were calculated to compare the ratings of social support across groups. Following this, open-ended responses of the participants about reasons for continuing or dropout, were analyzed.
520 $a Results: Findings suggest that social support was greater for girls who engaged in male-dominated sports than girls in neutral and feminine types of sport; social support was greater for girls who continued than for those who dropped out; and social support was greater for American than Israeli girls.
520 $a Conclusions: The study identified perceptual, situational and interpersonal factors that influence young girls' participation status during adolescence. Perceptual factors were found to be crucial for participation, and interpersonal factors (i.e., social support) were found as another layer that strengthened or weakened the girls' decision to engage in male-dominated sports.
