This book was released on 2020 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract The Social Cognitive Career Theory was applied to examine how the desire to coach or administrate are impacted by self-efficacy, occupational valence, perceived hindrance, and role model influence. This study was conducted to address the underrepresentation of females in collegiate sports leadership positions. The study examined if being coached by males or if males in leadership positions is preferred. Women coach less than half, (40.2%) of women0́9s sports and women account for 19.6% percent of administrators in college athletic departments. Hypothetically, the results of this study will support and enhance the NCAA college sports model by revealing quantitative data that provide a foundation for understanding the problems and identifying key factors important to the leadership development of female student-athletes. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, MANOVAs, and path analysis. Everhart and Chelladurai (1998) stated that female athletes preferred male coaches and that female athletes that had male coaches were more likely to perceive discrimination as a barrier. The study0́9s finding is that collegiate female student-athletes had a high perception of female coaches and female administrators and a preference for female coaches.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: Division I intercollegiate student-athletes represent a unique population on college campuses due to the demands of being both a student and an athlete. This qualitative study explored how nine student-athletes at a large, public institution college experiences influenced their career decision-making processes. Past literature on student-athletes has focused on academic challenges, the Jock Stereotype, minimal campus engagement, and the lack of ability to make realistic career decisions. This study suggests that student-athletes are aware of the importance to prepare for their lives beyond their intercollegiate careers. From the shared stories of participant student-athletes, five themes emerged, (a) college choice process, (b) academics, (c) campus engagement (d) career evolution, and (e) awareness of sacrifices and advantages. Participant student-athletes stories emphasized the importance of building stronger relationships on campus. The results also demonstrated the need to implement stronger career development services while they navigate the complexities of their dual roles. Policy and practice implications are discussed.

Book Synopsis A Qualitative Study of Division I Female Student-athletes in Non-revenue Generating Sports and the Sport Management Major by : Jin Park
Download or read book A Qualitative Study of Division I Female Student-athletes in Non-revenue Generating Sports and the Sport Management Major written by Jin Park and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The barriers and challenges women confront in the sports industry, which represents a male-dominant field, have been well-documented in the sport management literature. However, there is a still lack of research on how women who aspire to work in sports industry perceive those barriers or what supports they receive as pursuing their desired careers. While the majority of research in the sport management discipline examined female sport management students' perceptions of sports careers, female student-athletes' unique experiences in managing the tasks of both academics and athletics would offer new insights into women's careers in sport. Because of abundant opportunities to engage in athletic activities within a team or athletic department, it is imperative to capture and unpack female student-athletes' experiences within both athletics and their majors in examining perceived barriers and supports to careers in sport. Furthermore, the number of female student-athletes has been increasing substantially after the passage of Title IX and various factors influencing their career development should be thoroughly and qualitatively examined from a holistic perspective. The current study therefore qualitatively explored female student-athletes' perceptions of supports and barriers to their future careers in sport through the lens of social cognitive career theory.
Book Synopsis The Influence of Sport on the Career Construction of Female Division III Student-Athletes by : Jacqueline M. Kus
Download or read book The Influence of Sport on the Career Construction of Female Division III Student-Athletes written by Jacqueline M. Kus and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Student-athletes have been shown in the literature to have a defined experience that is different from non-athletes. The challenges student-athletes face at the Division III (DIII) level and a lack of research raises curiosity regarding their career development. The purpose of this qualitative narrative study was to investigate female DIII student-athletes meaning-making regarding major selection using the Career Construction Interview (CCI) and the ways major choices are confirmed or challenged by their own defined life story. The participants of this study included 7 Caucasian traditional-age female student-athletes who exhibited strong athletic identities (utilizing the Athletic Identity Measurement Scale) attending a DIII institution located in the Midwest. Data were collected through semi-structured, open-ended interviews and the CCI, and analyzed using processes of restorying, life design counseling, and holistic-content analysis. The findings of this study indicate that telling, hearing, and retelling their stories were individually impactful and transformative. This study identified three themes across the narratives, which documented the influence of sports, minimal career support, and affirmation of their major decisions as shared experiences among the participants. Implications of the findings point to the need for intentionality surrounding career interventions in DIII post-secondary institutions for athletes and non-athletes. Results of this study revealed that even students with a chosen major can benefit from reflecting on their career stories. These results point to the opportunity to meet the career needs of student-athletes and the general student body with curriculum such as a constructivist career course designed around the CCI.

This book was released on 2009 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The career development and decision-making process of student-athletes has been found to be a complex process (Brown, Glastetter-Fender, & Shelton, 2000; Lally & Kerr, 2005; and Sandstedt, Cox, Martens, Ward, Webber, & Ivey, 2004). Intertwined with issues not found within the general student population career development and decision-making process, the student-athlete career development and decision-making process is impacted by internal and external forces that included but are not limited to identity, major limitations, intense scheduling, and the need for balancing multiple pressures. Limited research studies have been conducted to solely examine the career development and decision making of Division I female student-athletes. In-depth interviews were conducted with seven high achieving female Division I student athletes attending an institution of higher learning in Mississippi. A phenomenological study employing naturalistic inquiry was used to collect and analyze data about Division I student-athletes experiences and examine in rich detail, the career development and decision-making processes of female Division I student-athletes who attended State University (SU) in Mississippi. Three main themes were identified in speaking with female intercollegiate athletes about their athletics participation and their career development and decision making. Those themes included: "Pre-Baccalaureate Career Development, College Career Development, and Post-Baccalaureate Career Development." Additionally, there were transitional components found between the themes which prompted movement from one theme to the next. The transitional components were "The Recruiting Process and Transferable Skill Application." The data found that there was great nuance and complexity found in the common career development and decision making process of this high achieving subsection of the student-athlete population.
Book Synopsis EXPLORING FORMER NCAA DIVISION I WOMEN SOCCER PLAYERS' TRANSITION by : Kate Yurkovic Manning
Download or read book EXPLORING FORMER NCAA DIVISION I WOMEN SOCCER PLAYERS' TRANSITION written by Kate Yurkovic Manning and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I women student-athletes are high-level athletes who experience the traditional demands of job-hunting, interviewing, and the range of emotions experienced by college students transitioning from postsecondary education into the workforce. In addition, they have unique experiences related to their collegiate playing careers ending and being women in the workplace. Guided by Nancy Schlossberg's (1981) Model for Analyzing Human Adaptation to Transition, this qualitative study explored eight former NCAA Division I women soccer players' perceptions about the transition to the workforce. The focus was on the student-athletes' psychosocial and institutional influences related to the career transition process. Five themes emerged from the interviews: 1) institutional career support, 2) transferable skills, 3) career connections, 4) moving on, and 5) advice from former student-athletes. All the participants had a positive experience being a collegiate student-athlete, but still, they felt a lack of support and resources provided to them to aid with the career transition from their coaches, athletic department, and university. The participants acknowledged that internship experiences contributed to a positive transition into the workforce but expressed challenges completing an internship opportunity due to the time demands associated with being a student-athlete. The respondents also expressed other challenges with transitioning from being a student-athlete to a young professional, but all collectively used their families, friends, and teammates for support during the transition. The former student-athletes also unanimously believed they acquired several skills such as time management, conflict management, and discipline from being student-athletes that helped them have a more successful transition. Each participant provided advice to current student-athletes and recommendations to athletic programs, coaches, and administrators about the career transition process for student-athletes.

Book excerpt: ABSTRACT:This qualitative study was designed to gather descriptive data through the use of visual elicitation and semi structured interviews to better understand the perception of and transition experiences of Black female athletes. Specifically, this phenomenological approach explored the salient factors that influence those perceptions and looked at how factors such as race, gender, athletic identity and athletic status intersect and influence their transition experiences. A sample (N=4) of participants who identified as Black female student athletes were interviewed and five superordinate themes were identified from the data: Perceptions of Visual Profile, Lack of People of Color (POC) Representation, Impact of Identity, Microaggressions, and Perceptions of own transition. Results indicated that participant’s racial and gender and athletic identities influenced their perceptions of life beyond sport. Findings are discussed collectively and implications for training are provided.

Book Synopsis The Relationship Between Professional Development Engagement and Career Decision Making Self-efficacy, and Athletic Identity in College Students Vs. College Student Athletes by : Ashley E. Janosko
Download or read book The Relationship Between Professional Development Engagement and Career Decision Making Self-efficacy, and Athletic Identity in College Students Vs. College Student Athletes written by Ashley E. Janosko and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been limited research that focuses on Division III college student athletes and the career development process. Although previous researchers have studied the relationship between athletic identity and career decision making self-efficacy (CDMSE) among college student athletes, results have been inconsistent, with different researchers finding inverse, positive, or no relationships between variables. In addition, numerous researchers have examined career development among college student athletes. However, there has been no research to date that studies professional development engagement (PDE) and college student athletes. In addition, the majority of career development studies involving college student athletes have focused on either Division I or II schools. To address this gap, the current research project utilized three variables (athletic identity, CDMSE, and PDE) to try to gain an understanding of factors that may impact the career development process for traditional age college students (College Student Non-Athletes; CSNA) and college student-athletes in a Division III school. Chickering’s Identity Development Theory was used as a lens to examine identity development among the populations of interest. The researcher conducted a quantitative study at an NCAA Division III university in the northeastern region of the United States to examine the relationship between PDE and CDMSE among college student athletes (research question 1). Furthermore, this research was designed to determine if the association between PDE and CDMSE changed when controlling for athletic identity (research question 2). Lastly, the author examined this same set of variables and controls (the association between PDE and CDMSE when controlling for athletic identity) to see if there was a significant difference between college student athletes vs. CNSAs (research question 3). NCAA Division III student athletes and CSNA completed an online survey consisting of three instruments (Athletic Identity Measurement Scale, Career Decision Making Short-Form, and Professional Development Engagement Scale) and a demographic questionnaire. The results suggest that higher levels of PDE lead to higher level of CDMSE, and that higher levels of athletic identity were related to higher levels of CDMSE when controlling for PDE. Furthermore, in both the student athlete and the CNSA samples, there was no significant relationship difference in the association between PDE and CDMSE when accounting for athletic identity. Additionally, implications for research, practice, and teaching are discussed.
