Eccles and his crews (1983) contended that behavioral achievement and performance were affected by the expectancy and values aspiring for success. This research was mainly aimed to use the measurement tool, namely the ”The Expectancy and Value Scale for Volleyball Sports” developed by Weng, Hsu-Sheng and Lin, Chang-Pang (2007) based on Eccles expectancy-value theory. The experimental subjects were selected from 222 university volleyball players aging from 17 to 28 belonging to various divisions (M=20.13,SD=1.75). There were totally 130 males (58.6%) and 92 females (41.4%). Research results indicated different-gendered volleyball players revealed no significant levels on the variance of capability expectancy, work difficulty and work values (p>.05). In the variance of psychological cost caused by failure, it showed no significant level (p<.05). In this research, aside from the examination on the expectancy and values of different-gendered volleyball players, the variance gap of past researches without examination effort spent in the expectancy and values of sports competition was also covered. In future, the portrait research method can be applied to examine the variance and development of the expectancy and values of continuous or quitting volleyball players. The insightful knowledge on motives of individuals for volleyball sports can be reachable.
