Athletics And Faith: A Quantitative Analysis On The Relationship Of Athletic Participation And Spiritual Development, Griffin O. Gardner

Master of Arts in Higher Education (MAHE) Theses

The purpose of the study was to examine the relationship between athletic involvement and spiritual development.

Though no statistical significance existed between the results of the two populations, the study …

As colleges and universities continue to enroll student-athletes, higher education professionals should emphasize their efforts to see students succeed in their athletics, as well as their academic work. The current study sought to unearth the student-athlete experience related to advisement using phenomenological design.

The results suggest that student-athletes encounter significant challenges or difficulties as they attempt to balance their academic and athletic priorities. Student-athletes indicated several groups of individuals who were key supporters during their time spent in a collegiate sport. Implications from the study indicate a …
