Book excerpt: Young adults who enter their college years as student-athletes face the challenge of balancing their athletic demands with their academic ones, all while transitioning to their future careers as adults. The demand for student-athletes to perform at the highest level possible often begins to push some of them over the edge both physically and mentally. The culture of athletics has not always been supportive of student-athletes with mental illness, therefore, weakening the stigma of mental illness is necessary to encourage student-athletes to begin to seek the help they may truly need. This thesis explores on-campus housing at the University of Maryland (UMD) that encourages community and a supportive environment for the student-athlete and general student population living there. The community spaces and mental health resources better prepare student-athletes in dealing with mental illness and the stressors they face in college. The organization and aesthetics of the built environment encourage wellness in subtle and direct ways, creating an environment that weaves together mental well-being and everyday living without branding it as a place to be 'fixed'. As a result, every individual can learn to thrive within their sport and academics and become resilient to the stressors and demands of their college career and beyond.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student-athletes face a variety of stressors and adversities that become hurdles in both their personal, athletic, and academic lives. This study explores the relationship between resilience, cohesion, and stress amongst community college student-athletes. Community college student-athletes (N=49) completed an online survey using the Group Environment Questionnaire, College Student-Athletes' Life Stress Scale, and Brief Resilience Scale. T-tests were used to compare differences among these variables by gender. Student-athletes reported higher levels of resilience and cohesion, which were related to lower levels of stress. This study illustrates how resilience, belonging, and coach/peer supports help decrease levels of perceived stress within the community college student-athlete population.

Download or read book NCAA Division I Student athletes Perceptions of how the Coach athlete Relationship Influences Student athlete Resilience written by Sara Marie Erdner and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Resilience in sport has been defined as "the role of mental processes and behavior in promoting personal assets and protecting an individual from the potential negative effect of stressors" (Fletcher & Sarkar, 2012, p. 675). Fletcher and Sarkar's (2012) found that various psychological factors were indicative of athlete resilience such as achievement motivation, social support, focus, confidence, and positive personality. To date, sport psychology researchers have dominantly examined resilience as an individual construct (e.g., Galli & Vealey, 2008; Fletcher & Sarkar; Wagstaff, Sarkar, Davidson, & Fletcher, 2016). However, it is also important to consider how athlete resilience might develop and operate in relationships with important others (e.g., coach). Narrative inquiry (Smith & Sparkes, 2009) was used in this study to explore the stories of seven NCAA Division I student-athletes' lived experiences of how the coach-athlete relationship influenced their ability to be resilient through major stress. Semi-structured interviews were conducted that asked participants about their respective coach-athlete relationship, how power and sociocultural factors influenced this relationship, and in turn, influenced student-athlete resilience. Braun and Clarke's (2006) thematic analysis was used for data analysis, which revealed the following themes: (a) Student-athlete core resilience, (b) The W.O.A.T., (c) The G.O.A.T., (d) W.O.AT. coach behaviors, (e) G.O.A.T. coach behaviors, (f) The W.O.A.T., the G.O.A.T., and student-athlete resilience, (g) The effect of coach major stress on student-athlete resilience, and (h) The relational shift: From bad to better, good to great. It is hoped that the findings of this study will be used as a powerful method from which coaches can emotionally connect with the participants' stories in order to better understand how they might operate within the coach-athlete relationship to influence student-athlete resilience.

Download or read book The Collegiate Athlete at Risk written by Morris R. Council and published by IAP. This book was released on 2018-09-01 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are numerous books documenting the challenges of student athletes and presenting recommendations for academic success. They primarily focus on understanding the issues of student-athletes and recommendations are oftentimes overly simplistic, failing to explicitly provide interventions that can be executed by student-athlete support personnel. In addition, the topic of supporting student-athletes who are academically at risk and/or are diagnosed with high incidence disabilities has been overlooked by scholars resulting in few publications specifically focusing on providing strategies to the staff/personnel who serve these populations. The general target audience is college/university practitioners who interface with student-athletes who demonstrate academic and social risk in the realm of athletics. These stakeholders include but are not limited to: academic support staff, student athletes, parents, coaches, faculty/educators, counselors, psychologists, higher education administrators, student affairs professionals, disability services coordinators/personnel, as well as researchers who focus on education leadership, sports, and special education. All of these groups are likely to find this book attractive especially as they work with student-athletes who are at-risk for academic failure. Also, it is ventured that this book will become the staple text for the National Association of Academic Advisors (N4A), the official organization for all personnel who work in collegiate academic support and can be used by members of intercollegiate athletic associations to reform policies in place to support at-risk student-athletes.

This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sport psychology research relies on advancements in the measurement of psychological resilience to explore healthy and adaptive responses to conditions that present adversity among student athletes. This study examined relationships between personality, attention and self-regulation as a means to contribute a prototypical perspective of athlete resiliency that correlates with health and wellbeing under stress. A sample of 75 college student athletes completed the Big Five personality dimensions using the Big Five Inventory (BFI), the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MASS) and The Self-Regulation Scale (SRQ). A cluster-analysis of the BFI data yielded a three-cluster solution of the resilient, overcontrolled and undercontrolled personality prototypes generally found in previous research with an important exception: the highest Neuroticism score did not occur in the overcontrolled cluster, but in the undercontrolled cluster. Data analyses indicated that resilient athletes reported significantly higher overall present moment attention (M = 4.09, SD = .77) compared to both the undercontrolled [M = 3.45, SD = .49, t (45) = 3.39, p =.01] and overcontrolled groups, M=4.09, SD = .77, t(48)=3.49, p =.01. Resilient athletes were reported significantly higher self-regulation (M = 234.64, SD = 18.01) compared only to the undercontrolled group, M = 219.88, SD = 16.24, t(45) = 2.95, p = .01. No significant differences were detected between men and women on present moment attention or self-regulation. Personality prototype had a significant main effect on present moment attention [F (2,69) = 4.77, p
