Abstract
Zusammenfassung: Mit der Fußballweltmeisterschaft 2006 in Deutschland werden erneut einige Problemfelder des Fußballs, die im Kern psychologischer Natur sind, eine erhöhte öffentliche Aufmerksamkeit erzeugen. Dazu zählen unter anderem die Frage nach dem Heimvorteil des ausrichtenden Verbandes, die Fehleranfälligkeit von Schiedsrichterentscheidungen und die Gefahr von Zuschauerausschreitungen. Anhand eines Überblicks über empirische Arbeiten zu diesen ausgewählten Themenbereichen wird deutlich gemacht, dass es insbesondere Beiträge mit sozialpsychologischem Hintergrund sind, die es ermöglichen, zu entsprechenden Fragestellungen fundiert Stellung zu beziehen und Ansätze für Problemlösungen zu erarbeiten. Darüber hinaus wird aufgezeigt, dass der Fußballsport unter Umständen ein besonders günstiges Anwendungsfeld zur Überprüfung sozialpsychologischer Theorien bietet.
Abstract: Once more, the Football World Championship 2006 in Germany will shift public attention to some problems of football that are psychological topics by nature. Among others, these are the supposed advantage of the home team, the error-proneness of referee decisions, and the danger of crowd violence. From an overview of empirical studies on these selected topics, it becomes obvious that especially contributions with a social psychological background allow to draw clear conclusions and provide promising approaches for the solution of these problems. Moreover, it is argued that the world of football presents an ideal field of application for the validation of social psychological theories.
