Can Nil Help Dissolve The Gender Inequities That Are Baked Into The Fabric Of The Ncaa Culture?, Ryan Cory

Transformations: Presentation Slides

The gender equity imbalance in college athletics has been an issue since the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) was formed in 1905 (Boninger, 2018). On July 1, 2021, the NCAA put together a NIL policy that all athletes across all divisions can benefit from their brands (Jessop & Sabin, 2021). The impact that NIL will bring to compensation between male and female student-athletes can compare to the impact that Title IX brought to female sports participation rates in 1972 (Staurowsky & Rhoads, 2020). The reasons deal with social media and how female student-athletes use it. Female student-athletes tend to be more active on social media resulting in large engagement numbers and a greater following which is key for brand partnerships (Titus, 2021).

This presentation will: (1) discuss name, image, and likeness (NIL); (2) explain gender equity in college athletics; (3) show examples of NIL deals for female athletes

Gender Discrimination And Its Impact On Female Sport Management Students, Nicole Bellettiere

Transformations: Presentation Slides

Gender discrimination within the sport management industry is a prominent complication that has been around for seemingly forever. Whether it’s being ashamed of their femininity by a male dominated society (Hoeber and Shaw, 2003), undergoing gender stereotyping (Bower, Hums, and Grappendorf, 2015) or experiencing sexism (Hardin, Smith, Taylor and Welch, 2018), it’s clear that women have been pushed to the bottom of the sporting industry. This has an overall effect on female sport management students and their experiences throughout their time in the undergraduate program. It’s been concluded that female students are left questioning whether sport management ...

Senior Theses

This thesis analyzes transfer spending and performance data from English Premier League football clubs participating in the 1992-2021 seasons of the English Premier League using regression analysis and Granger causality analysis.

I then speak to the sustainability of transfer spending necessary to improve performance over a specified length of time. Further discussion considers implications of Financial Fair Play regulations and explores relevant case studies of Blackburn Rovers, Manchester City, Chelsea, Leicester City, and Newcastle United.

Is Same-Gender Mentorship Important For Division Iii Female College Athletes?: An Application Of The Mentor Role Theory, Nicholas Swim, Ehren R. Green, Mary A. Hums, Glenna G. Bower, Khirey B. Walker

Journal of Athlete Development and Experience

In the last twenty years, opportunities for women in intercollegiate athletics have grown exponentially. Unfortunately, women still represent a small number of head coaches in intercollegiate athletics, creating a disparity in numbers between female college athletes and female head coaches. This disparity has led to an imbalance for female college athletes searching for female role models and mentors. This study investigated the mentoring experiences of NCAA Division III female college athletes based on their lived experiences with both male and female head coaches. Using Mentor Role Theory (MRT), a set of qualitative responses were collected and analyzed. The participants highlighted ...

Athlete Identity And Mental Health Among Ncaa Division Iii Student-Athletes, Sarah Stokowski, Alison Fridley, Chris Croft, Peyton Stensland, Skye Arthur-Banning

Journal of Athlete Development and Experience

Student-athletes often identify with the athlete role and demonstrate high levels of athlete identity. High athlete identity leads to many unintended consequences such as low career maturity and difficulty adapting to a life beyond sport. Additionally, high athlete identity often leads to mental health concerns among the student-athlete population. Informed by self-categorization theory (Turner, 1982), the purpose of this study was to explore athlete identity and mental health among NCAA Division III student-athletes. The Athlete Identity Measurement Scale (AIMS) and The Depression Anxiety Stress Scales-21 were completed by 332 NCAA Division III student-athletes. The results demonstrated that Division III student-athletes ...
