Athletes were recruited through a student subject pool recruitment portal, as well as with local and regional flyers and emails. Participants completed a series of self-report measures in Qualtrics. Hierarchical linear regression analysis was utilized to test the hypotheses. Partial support …

It is unclear whether this intervention might also promote the acquisition of more nuanced sociocultural understanding about gender, …
