ABSTRACT This exploratory study is the first to present an in vivo method to capture rich, longitudinal data on the prevalence and features of student-athletes’ smartphone usage and concurrent psychosocial outcomes. Ten competitive Canadian student-athletes were meticulously tracked through the collection of monthly self-report surveys and real-time smartphone usage data over the course of a full academic year. Half of them exhibited heavy while the other half exhibited light usage trends. The athletes predominantly used their smartphone for social media. Changes in their moderate-to-high level of psychosocial functioning was highly nuanced over time, similar to their amount of usage. Findings support a new wave of literature deemphasizing a simple relationship between smartphone usage and negative psychosocial outcomes, and encourage further study of individual characteristics, such as purpose of usage. This research lays the foundation for larger-scale studies to assess the impact of student-athletes’ smartphone usage.

ABSTRACT
Relationships between athletes and coaches are essential to understanding organized, competitive sports. In U.S. intercollegiate athletics, coaches affect the lives of athletes in myriad ways, including athletic performance, academic performance, professional development, and emotional development. The current study utilized person-environment fit, an organizational theory concerned with compatibility between individuals and organizations, to examine the coach-athlete relationship in Division II intercollegiate athletics. Using a survey design, the researchers collected data from 257 NCAA Division II college athletes. Representing the focal variable, person-environment fit was assessed at four levels: between athlete and coach, athlete and teammates, athlete and role(s), and athlete and team culture. A series of hierarchical multiple regression analyses reported that perceived fit with coaches has a unique and important impact on college athlete satisfaction. These results highlight the need for coaches to cultivate and sustain positive relationships with athletes, and for administrators to support coaches in those efforts.

Abstract The investigation compared the development between Chinese and American Division III tennis student-athletes to explore. In doing so, we aimed to provide a reproducible way of promoting Chinese collegiate tennis by complementing or mimicking the American experience. In this case study, the researchers used triangulation, including qualitative methods (eight semi-structured interviews, including six tennis student-athletes and two head coaches), comparison, and observation to increase the validity and reliability of the data. A noticeable difference between the two groups was that, compared to the U.S., the Chinese tennis student-athletes did not pay much attention to academics, the coaches lacked effective strategies for team management, and the training and competition mechanisms were not reasonable enough. However, there were some similarities across the two groups, including women student-athletes generally performed better than men, the goals of both developmental programs met respective basic requirements, and the coaches were successful in the recruitment of student-athletes.

ABSTRACT Student-athletes’ athletic and academic identities have been recognized as important determinants to their academic and athletic performance. Yet, there is scarce information on how these two identities may be related to student-athletes’ overall or sport-wellbeing. Therefore, this study examined how student-athletes’ academic and athletic identities are associated with their overall and sport well-being in a US national sample of 241 NCAA Division I student-athletes. We examined whether the relationship between these two identities and well-being would be moderated by student-athletes’ demographics. We also explored whether interruptions due to the Covid-19 pandemic affected student-athletes’ overall and sport well-being. Results showed a significant positive relationship between academic identity and overall well-being, and a negative relationship between athletic identity and sport well-being. Additionally, year in school, race, and gender were significant correlates of sport and overall well-being. Finally, results indicated that COVID-19 pandemic was negatively associated with participants’ overall and sport well-being.

ABSTRACT The coach-athlete relationship and social support are stressors that impact athletes’ well-being, however, most research in this area focusses on the relationship between these variables and burnout. Researchers have shown differences in stressors experienced between sport types (individual and team) where evidence suggests individual sport athletes report higher mental health concerns compared to those in team sports. This study aimed to understand the relationships between the coach-athlete relationship, social support, and psychological well-being among collegiate athletes, and the impact of sport type on these variables. A total of 153 National Collegiate Athletic Association Division I student-athletes completed coach-athlete relationship, social support, and well-being measures online. Results indicate the coach-athlete relationship and social support were both positively correlated with well-being, but there were no significant differences between sport type on any outcome variables. Findings from this study may influence future coaching practices and support networks, thus positively impacting student athletes’ well-being.
