Transgressive behavior is thus judged as legitimate.\u00a0When there is a referee or a person who plays this role, in football for example, practitioners also invoke them to justify certain faults which would be a means of doing themselves justice and would make it possible to restore a situation perceived as unfair.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the perception of the group climate plays an essential role in the appropriation or not of the values \u200b\u200bpromoted.\u00a0The moral atmosphere corresponds to the collective norms concerning the moral behavior of the members of the group, these norms being considered as being as important as those specific to the individuals.\u00a0During interactions between group members, an understanding of appropriate behaviors is built.\u00a0These operating standards, shared by all members, allow them to evaluate behaviors as being appropriate or not in given situations.<\/p>\n<p>The first studies in this field concerned the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cup.columbia.edu\/book\/lawrence-kohlbergs-approach-to-moral-education\/9780231059770\">school<\/a>\u00a0and prison environment and showed that, in these contexts, the moral functioning usually adopted by individuals was abandoned in favor of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cup.columbia.edu\/book\/lawrence-kohlbergs-approach-to-moral-education\/9780231059770\">morality of the group<\/a>\u00a0.\u00a0Many works were subsequently carried out\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.academia.edu\/826493\/Moral_atmosphere_and_athletic_aggressive_tendencies_in_young_soccer_players\">in the sports context<\/a>\u00a0, whether at the federal or socio-educational level.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/psycnet.apa.org\/record\/2009-22328-005\">The moral atmosphere of the team<\/a>\u00a0, in particular the practitioners&#8217;
