The purpose of this study was to examine athletic and academic identity and athletic and academic motivation in DIII student-athletes. An additional purpose of the study was to explore the extent to which identity and motivation variables could predict GPA. This study also qualitatively explored students' perceptions of their success, identity and motivation. Using Expectancy-Value and Identity theories as a theoretical framework, participants (n = 358) were administered an online survey that included AAIS and SAM. S. AQ scales along with open-ended qualitative questions. Quantitative data were used to conduct confirmatory factor analyses, bivariate correlations, hierarchical multiple regression, and multivariate analyses of variance. Qualitative analyses were used to extract major themes from the data, and a Mixed Methods analysis was used to analyze quantitative and qualitative data in a side-by-side comparison.

Student-athletes live such demanding lives navigating life as a student and athlete. This can at times place their identities at odds exhibiting differing levels of motivation depending on the behavioral domain. For student-athletes of color, the balance can be even more challenging given the additional role of a marginalized identity. The current study aims to explore academic achievement motivation as it pertains to the experiences of the student-athlete of color. A Grounded Theory qualitative method is also employed in order to disentangle the narratives of student-athletes of color attending a Predominantly White Institution (PWI). 13 student-athletes of color were interviewed for the purposes of the current investigation allowing several themes to emerge that shed light on student-athlete lives. The current study found that student-athlete participants seemed to apply skills learned within an athletic domain to their academic success. Participants also tended to neglect their social lives in order to better accommodate academic and athletic values. Finally, participants in this study appeared to derive academic motivation from a future orientation that encouraged achievement in order to access personal and professional success. From this, it could be that providing an environment where student-athletes of color feel safe to express themselves and their identities in order to build connection to the university at large, could be supportive of academic motivation. Also, sharing academic resources and content in connection to its influence on future goals could represent a more intentional and culturally aligned student-athlete of color perspective. Research placing the current findings in context with the extant literature is provided along with study limitations, implications, recommendations, and concluding remarks.

When students enter college, most face common challenges such as learning to balance school and work, experiencing different expectations of college courses, and meeting and working with a diverse student body and faculty. The student-athlete faces these challenges as well as others. The student-athlete must learn not only to balance school and new expectations but also to adjust to the addition of practices, training sessions, and games to his or her full schedule of courses. Some student-athletes become celebrities, adding another demand to their already full load. Many community college student-athletes view the community college athletic program as a step towards playing at a Division I institution or even being recruited by a professional sports team. The probability is low, however, that community college student-athletes will go further in their sport, and is even smaller when it comes to becoming a professional athlete, Thus, is the reason for attending the community college for some athletes based on athletic and career motivation or academic motivation? Do student-athletes identify themselves as students or as athletes? -- Abstract.

This study examined the relationships and factors in student-athlete achievement motivation and academic success and investigated mathematics as an interaction. The relationship of motivational orientation to academic performance and identification was investigated using a pair of factor analyses. The interaction between mathematics and student-athletes' achievement motivation and academic motivation was observed by an analysis of variance. Two motivational profiles were discovered within the student-athletes, Ambitious and Mathematically Sound. The results show that the student-athletes have an overall positive relationship with their mathematical beliefs. According to Zan and Di Martino (2007), the phenomenon of 'negative attitudes towards mathematics' is related to the learning of the discipline. From previous research, discipline is a foundation of a student-athlete's success, their attitudes and beliefs play an important role in their academic and athletic success, and those attitudes and beliefs also play an important role in learning mathematics. Many of the most prominent student-athletes seem to lack such motivation in the classroom (Simons, Van Rheenen, & Covington, 1999), and most athletes are highly motivated to succeed in the athletic domain, having been selected to participate in intercollegiate athletics because of their proven ability and desire to be victorious. The results of this study show that student-athletes display discipline in both athletics and academics and exhibit strong feelings towards their value and confidence in mathematics and showed low risk for mathematics anxiety.

The lack of academic success is an ongoing issue for student-athletes in the university setting. Student-athletes go to school in order to get an education, along with playing a sport, but it seems that there is still a disconnect that is effecting how these student-athletes perform off the field. Even though there have been some successful programs to help improve the academic performance of student-athletes, not many of these exist or are being implemented in the best way. This project reviews the literature to understand the underlying causes of the poor academic performance of student-athletes and provides a program to both student-athletes and faculty to help increase the success in the classroom. Components of this program include workshops for both students-athletes and faculty members to help translate athletic motivation into academic motivation and success in the classroom as well as on the field.

In this study, I examined the relationship that exists among school belonging, achievement motivation, and academic achievement in a sample of student-athletes at UC Berkeley. The goal of the study was to achieve a deeper understanding of how and why achievement motivation and academic achievement is often discrepant between revenue and non-revenue athletes (Howard-Hamilton & Sina, 2001; Simons, Covington, & Van Rheenen, 1999). By examining the relationship between sense of school belonging and achievement motivation, I aimed to identify an additional factor that may contribute to motivation and achievement differences observed between subgroups in my sample. I also investigated differing motivation profiles in a representative sample of student-athletes. The current study used a 2 x 2 goal achievement framework established by Elliot and McGregor (2001) to provide a deeper understanding of motivation by fusing approach-avoidance and mastery-performance perspectives (Elliot & McGregor, 2001). Data for this study were collected from 143 college student-athletes at a large public university in the western United States. Respondents were from 17 to 24 years of age and were diverse in regard to gender, ethnicity, class year, sport, and socioeconomic status. Students who agreed to participate completed a brief questionnaire and submitted their responses anonymously. Motivation profiles were established by clustering scores from four variables: mastery-approach, performance-approach, mastery-avoidance, and performance-avoidance. Four meaningful clusters were identified among the student-athlete sample. A series of multivariate analyses of variance (MANOVAs) and univariate ANOVAs were then used to examine cluster group differences on the variables of perceived school belonging (instructor support, peer support, and general sense of belonging), achievement data, and each motivation cluster. Group differences amongst high-revenue and non-revenue student-athletes in regard to the dimension of school belonging, goal orientation, and achievement level were assessed using multivariate analysis of variance. Overall the results of the study reveal that four motivational profiles were identified within the student-athlete population using a 2 x 2 approach-avoidance and mastery-performance model. These clusters can be described as High Mastery, Moderate Motivation, High Approach, and High Motivation profiles. Student-athletes rarely reported low levels of motivation on the scale. The differences that were found between clusters were based on students feeling strongly or moderately in regard to motivation. Overall, subscales associated with a sense of school belonging did vary significantly across the four motivational clusters. Student-athletes identified as having a Moderate motivation profile had a weaker sense of support from peers, instructors, and the overall academic community in comparison to students found in the High Motivation and High Approach clusters. Students identified as having a High Approach profile felt the highest level of belonging across measures. No significant difference was found between revenue and non-revenue athletes in regard to distribution among cluster profiles; however, revenue athletes reported significantly lower levels of belonging across subscales and had a lower mean grade point average.

The purposes of this study were to examine the effectiveness of tutoring from the Matador Achievement Center (MAC) for student athletes and explore student athletes' identity with athletics and academics. As part of an exploratory sequential mixed-method design, study 1 was completed by using secondary data analysis from the MAC, and study 2 was a case study through interviews. The data from each of these studies are not able to be connected directly, but they provided complementary information to inform future research and program development. For study 1, I hypothesized that student athletes who participated in the MAC would experience positive GPA changes over time and student athletes' GPA would be lower during semesters when their sport(s) was (were) in-season than compared to semesters out-of-season. The archival data included 567 student athletes' records from fall 2013 and spring 2015. The case study had three first year student athletes and they were interviewed about their athletic and academic history. Study 1 indicated that tutoring alone was not enough to increase student athletes' GPA overtime. Study 2 examined how student athletes balanced their roles with athletics and academics as related to identity and agency using a "figured worlds" approach (Holland Lachicotte, Skinner & Cain, 1998). The major findings were that student athletes were not as identified with or committed to their academic development as their athletic development. The student athletes tended to be more motivated with athletics than academics, and they were motivated to play in professional athletics. Lastly, student athletes reported that they experienced disempowerment related to their athletic identity in the classroom when following procedures on the first day of classes. The MAC and faculty liaisons should collaborate to find ways to ensure that the policy serves the necessary functions without putting students in a position of potentially receiving bias. Student athletes seemed that they did not have anything equivalent in academics to a support system they get from athletics.

An organizational communication study of collegiate athletes concludes that social identity theory, time scarcity, and projected selves theory are correlated with psychological/physical health, as well as the ability to predict academic success. Findings indicate that striking a balance between athletics and academics, and the time devoted to both, is necessary in order to achieve physical and psychological health. Furthermore, findings provide a link between the projected future self, social identity and the present motivation to achieve academically.
