This book was released on 2013 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study was designed to examine the factors that contribute to student persistence into athletic training education programs (ATEPs). The researcher also gauged prospective athletic training students' perceptions on experiences that contributed to their decision to either apply or not apply to ATEPs. -- Invited study participants included all freshmen prospective athletic training students who were enrolled in the Athletic Training Introductory course/s at three participating CAATE-accredited ATEPs with a secondary admissions process occurring in the fall. Contact persons from each ATEP were e-mailed a study introduction letter and asked to e-mail a student letter with a survey link to students in introductory course/s. The researcher merged two retention theories and developed a survey to gather data with regards to how program attributes, social, academic, clinical integration, and program commitment affect student persistence. Additionally, the survey included demographic items. The researcher also conducted semi-structured interviews with contact persons from each ATEP and gathered institution demographics, program demographics, and program attributes. Mann Whitney U tests were conducted to determine if differences among group responses existed. Spearman Rho correlation analyses were utilized to determine relationships between each independent variable (i.e., academic, social, clinical integration, program attributes, and program commitment) and each group (i.e., persisters and non-persisters). Establishing correlation significance allowed for the application of Binary Logistic Regression analysis to seek predictive variables. All qualitative responses provided in the survey data were coded utilizing an interpretive method of data coding. Overall descriptive statistics were computed on all survey items. -- With the results of this study, it was established that both a difference and relationship existed between each group and student persistence with Mann Whitney U and Spearman Rho correlations demonstrating significant results. Binary Logistic regression analysis did not yield predictive variables. The greatest correlation existed between program commitment and persistence. These findings suggested that strong program commitment is more influential in persistence than other variables. Qualitative results revealed that persisters and non-persisters manage the pre-application period differently, resulting in either persistence or non-persistence. Additionally, the rapport between athletes and athletic trainers serving as preceptors, the relationships between prospective athletic training students and athletic training students, and the mentorship displayed by athletic training students were all contributors to persistence.

Download or read book An Exploratory Investigation of Grit and Its Relationship to Student Integration in Athletic Training Education Programs written by Carlos Jose Gual and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Students must enroll in rigorous accredited academic programs and pass the National Board of Certification (BOC) examination to become athletic trainers. Therefore, studies in athletic training and student achievement focus on student persistence/retention and BOC Examination pass rates. The majority of studies conclude that cognitive measures like grade point average (GPA) have a relationship with both retention and exam pass rates. However, research should also consider meta-cognitive factors (i.e., personality traits). The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between athletic training students’ grit (a metacognitive factor) and their academic, clinical, and social integration. The population for this study was athletic training students in a professional athletic training program in Florida. The study reported a correlational analysis to determine the relationship between grit and student integrations. Analysis of the data failed to find a statistically significant relationship between grit and student integration. However, further research with a larger sample size could identify the correlation between grit and student integration. A relationship between grit and student integration can affect three components of athletic training education: program admissions, clinical placements, and student advising.

Download or read book Stress and Burnout among Athletic Training Students and Athletic Trainers written by Rhoda Frank and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (postgraduate) from the year 2023 in the subject Health - Sports science, , language: English, abstract: This study aims to determine the causes of stress and burnout among athletic training students and athletic trainers and how these problems affect their professional careers. Besides, the study seeks to establish the level of burnout among athletic training students. Additionally, the study aims to establish the solution for the issues identified and recommends strategies that athletic training programs should implement to mitigate stress and burnout. Role strain, work-family conflict, and professional socialization are the leading cause of stress and burnout among athletic training students. Task incongruence, role conflict, ambiguity, overload, and incompetency were the identified aspects of strain in ATs. The ambiguity in the athletic training profession is connected to insufficient specificity, while role conflict occurs in a situation where an individual is assigned to multiple roles at the same time. In essence, an individual's values and beliefs may not be compatible with professional job demands, causing role incongruence (the situation where description does not align with an individual's personality). Nineteen articles deeply examine the effect of role strain in athletic training students' profession. Work-family conflict is the disturbance emanating from the profession's family responsibilities, impacting their professional accomplishment. Fourteen researchers examined this problem extensively in the reviewed research articles, and it was determined to be a potential cause of burnout among athletic training students. High travel demands and long working hours are the two causes of work-family conflicts identified in the study. Besides, delayed or rescheduled games were determined to contribute to work-family conflict among the athletic trainers. The study found professional socialization and burnout among athletic training students closely related. Role revolution, gaining stability, formal preparation, envisioning the role, and organizational entry are the five essential phases of professional specialization in sports medicine.

Download or read book Improving College Student Retention written by Robert D. Reason and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-03 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Higher education institutions have already begun to see decreasing enrollment numbers, even as higher education enrollment is predicted to drop precipitously starting in 2025. Much of the decrease in enrollment will be driven by demographic trends about which higher education institutions can do little, making the retention of students who do enroll that much more important. Overall retention rates have stagnated and differential retention rates by race and ethnicity have persisted. If higher education institutions, researchers, and policy makers are to improve retention rates, a critical examination of the current state and future directions of retention research is essential.This edited volume begins that examination by addressing several questions: What are the needed directions in theory and research on college student persistence and how do we translate new theory and research into effective practices? Are we asking the right questions, looking in the right places, or trying to apply out-of-date theories to new populations? In short, how can the research community help institutions improve retention in this challenging time?
