Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Amateur sport organisations are funded through a variety of means, including government funding, corporate sponsorship and/or private donations. In the UK and Canada, amateur sport programs are primarily funded through government grants (Garrett, 2004; Kikulis, 2000; Slack and Hinings, 1994). While sport organisations have provided a rich setting to examine organisational and institutional theoretical concepts, there have been recent calls to extend this line of research further (O'Brien and Slack, 2004). The current study extends DiMaggio and Powell's (1983) concepts of isomorphic pressure by examining how different pressures complement and contradict each other as they impact organisational processes. Specifically, this paper explores the pressures created by Alberta Sports, Recreation Parks and Wildlife Foundation (ASRPWF) on Alberta's provincial sport organisations (APSOs). Results suggest that ASRPWF criteria and reporting requirements operated as institutional pressures impacting the APSOs. The geographic locations of the APSOs and the implementation of brown bag lunch seminars also operate as institutional pressures; however, these pressures minimise the pressures that emanate from the ASRPWF.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
