N2  - The purpose of this study was toexamine stay/leave behavior of track and field referees in DenizliMunicipality. Ninety eight Denizli track and field referees (65 men, Xage =36.78± 13.79 and 33 women; Xage = 31.34± 12.45) voluntarily participated in this study. In this study, “The Sport CommitmentModel” was used in this study. This model was developed by Scanlan et al.(1999) for athletes and adapted to referees by VanYperen. The questionnairemodel is a 20-item 5-Likert type and consists of 6 subscales (enjoyment,involvement alternatives, personal investments, social constraints, involvementopportunities, and intent to quit). According to descriptive analysis, the datashowed high enjoyment (X̅= 4.72, Ss =.48), social constraints (X̅ = 4.26, Ss =.88) scores and referees donot intend to quit (X̅= 4.64, Ss =.56). Additionally, the mean scores of involvement alternatives (X̅ = 2.91, Ss =.79)and involvement opportunities (X̅ = 2.69, Ss = 1.21) were a little lessthan the midpoint of the scale (i.e., 3). The results of Pearson product–momentcorrelations identified significant positive relationships among enjoyment andpersonal investment (r=.319; p<.001); enjoyment and involvementopportunities (r=.404; p<.001); personal investment and involvementopportunities (r=.321; p<.001); involvement opportunities and intent to quit(r=.368; p<.001) and lastly personal investment and intent to quit (r=.229;p<.05). Specifically, the results of this study found that enjoyment,spending time, money, effort, personal investment and involvement opportunitiesare very important for continuing officiating. In addition to this, this study showed that enjoyment increases personalinvestment and involvement opportunities.
