The purpose of this exploratory study was to gain a better understanding of baseball specific makeup and begin development of a valid and reliable instrument designed for use by Major League Baseball (MLB) to objectively assess specific personality characteristics (i.e., makeup) of professional baseball prospects. Four instruments were chosen to measure the psychological constructs of baseball makeup including: motivational styles, self-theories regarding ability, resilience, and moral reasoning. Participants included 232 collegiate baseball players currently competing in five different divisions of collegiate baseball who responded to the package of original instruments as well as items modified to use baseball specific language. Confirmatory factor analysis was used to successfully reduce and combine subscales of the original instruments into an overall model with acceptable fit indexes. Correlational analysis and paired-t-test results provided no support for sport-specific modification of the original instruments. Bivariate and canonical correlation analysis demonstrated consistent, conceptually relevant relationships between the psychological constructs examined. K-mean cluster analysis produced three meaningful motivational style profiles for the sample population and MANOVA results provided conceptually relevant differences between the profiles. In total, results provide objective insights into baseball makeup and support the need for educational interventions as part of professional baseball prospect development.
