Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: In the present study, both quantitative and qualitative approaches were used to assess the hardiness of student- athletes, specifically Commitment, Control, and Challenge. Collegiate student-athletes (N = 480) took the Personal Views Survey (PVS; Maddi, 1987) to assess if differences existed among gender and sport (team or individual) Psychometric properties were examined through an exploratory factor analysis (EFA) . Coaches were interviewed regarding their personal views about sport. The PVS was not found to be psychometrically sound in the current sport setting. Gender was found to be a significant predictor such that females were found to be higher in their levels of Commitment versus males. Coaches defined the term Commitment more easily than Control, Challenge and Hardiness. Both the quantitative and qualitative approaches support the difficulty with using the constructs Control, Challenge and the term Hardiness with respect to collegiate student-athletes. Additional psychometric research, including validity and reliability evidence, as well as qualitative investigations are warranted, to better understand the individual constructs and definitions of hardiness as related to collegiate student-athletes.
Book Synopsis Life-span Developmental Psychology by : E. Mark Cummings
Download or read book Life-span Developmental Psychology written by E. Mark Cummings and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2014-01-02 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there has been a significant increase in studies of stress and coping processes in recent years, researchers have often approached these topics from rather narrow and constrained perspectives. Furthermore, little communication has occurred across disciplines and research directions, resulting in the emergence of several relatively isolated literatures. An outgrowth of the Eleventh Biennial West Virginia University Conference on Life-Span Development, this volume emphasizes two major themes: the importance of taking a life-span approach to the study of stress and coping, and the development of new and more complete conceptual models of stress and coping processes. The first to approach these subjects from a life-span perspective, this book includes papers by distinguished researchers from each of the major periods of the life-span, and brings together the cognitive and socioemotional traditions in the study of dealing with pressures. The editors hope that this facilitation of communication among researchers with diverse views will help create a broadening and integration of perspectives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zuckerman received his Ph.D. in psychology from New York University, Graduate School of Arts and Science in 1954 with a specialization in clinical psychology. After graduation, he worked for three years as a clinical psychologist in state hospitals in Norwich, Connecticut and Indianapolis, Indiana. While in the latter position the Institute for Psychiatric Research was opened in the same medical center where he was working as a clinical psychologist. He obtained a position there with a joint appointment in the department of psychiatry. This was his first interdisciplinary experience with other researchers in psychiatry, biochemistry, psychopharmacology, and psychology. His first research areas were personality assessment and the relation between parental attitudes and psychopathology. During this time, he developed the first real trait-state test for affects, starting with the Affect Adjective Check List for anxiety and then broadening it to a three-factor trait-state test including anxiety, depression, and hostility (Multiple Affect Adjective Check List). Later, positive affect scales were added. Toward the end of his years at the institute, the first reports of the effects of sensory deprivation appeared and he began his own experiments in this field. These experiments, supported by grants from NIMH, occupied him for the next 10 years during his time at Brooklyn College, Adelphi University, and the research labs at Albert Einstein Medical Center in Philadelphia. This last job was his second interdisciplinary experience working in close collaboration with Harold Persky who added measures of hormonal changes to the sensory deprivation experiments. He collaborated with Persky in studies of hormonal changes during experimentally (hypnotically) induced emotions. During his time at Einstein, he established relationships with other principal investigators in the area of sensory deprivation and they collaborated on the book Sensory Deprivation: 15 years of research edited by John Zubek (1969). His chapter on theoretical constructs contained the idea of using individual differences in optimal levels of stimulation and arousal as an explanation for some of the variations in response to sensory deprivation. The first sensation seeking scale (SSS) had been developed in the early 1960's based on these constructs. At the time of his move to the University of Delaware in 1969, he turned his full attention to the SSS as the operational measure of the optimal level constructs. This was the time of the drug and sexual revolutions on and off campuses and research relating experience in these areas to the basic trait paid off and is continuing to this day in many laboratories. Two books have been written on this topic: Sensation Seeking: Beyond the Optimal Level of Arousal, 1979; Behavioral Expressions and Biosocial Bases of Sensation Seeking, 1994. Research on sensation seeking in America and countries around the world continues at an unabated level of journal articles, several hundred appearing since the 1994 book on the subject.

Download or read book Stress and Career Indecision written by Evan J. Reece and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collegiate student-athletes face challenges and demands that differ from their non- athlete peers. These demands can have significant impact on the athletes; especially in the area of career development. Previous research has found that college athletes spend less time than non-athletes planning for their careers (Murphy, Petitpas, & Brewer 1996). This study investigated whether a higher levels of career indecision and lower levels of career certainty are related to increased levels of stress in senior college athletes. Athletes were found to have significantly lower scores than non-athletes on the variable career certainty. Career certainty was significantly negatively correlated with stress, while career indecision was positively correlated with stress--Abstract.

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.
