Body Satisfaction and Disordered Eating Among Black Men Collegiate Athletes: What Are the Roles of Resilience, Self-Compassion, and Social Support?
Athletes feel pressure to conform to body ideals (e.g., lean/muscular) that can contribute to decreased body satisfaction (BS) and increased disordered eating (DE; e.g., restriction). DE research with Black men athletes, especially how psychosocial resources (e.g., self-compassion [SC]) may relate to reduced risk, has been limited. Therefore, we sought to close this gap. Among 373 Black men collegiate athletes, we documented BS and DE prevalence …
NCAA College Coaches’ Attitudes Towards LGBQ+ Student-Athletes: A Qualitative Analysis
National Collegiate Athletic Association Coaches’ Attitudes Toward the Inclusion of Transgender Athletes: A Quantitative Analysis
National Collegiate Athletic Association coaches build relationships with athletes and shape team culture; yet, research on their attitudes toward transgender athlete inclusion is limited. We surveyed 1,143 coaches on their attitudes toward and intentions in coaching transgender athletes. One third of coaches agreed with transgender women’s and about half agreed with transgender men’s sport participation; yet, most also agreed they would welcome …
Texas high school coaches' attitudes and perceptions of LGB + athletes: A qualitative analysis
LGB+ youth experience higher rates of mental health concerns and lower sport participation compared to their heterosexual peers, despite sport's potential benefits in LGB+ youths' lives. These disparities are shaped by exclusionary barriers, such as discrimination, which can make sport environments feel unwelcoming for LGB+ athletes. Coaches, who are highly influential in their athletes' lives, play a key role in shaping the sport experiences of …
The Experiences, and Effects, of Racial Mistreatments in the Lives of Black Male Collegiate Football Players: A Qualitative Analysis
Black male college athletes historically have endured racial mistreatment, particularly at Predominantly White Institutions (PWIs). Yet research examining how these athletes, particularly football players in Power Five conferences, experience such mistreatments and the effects they have on their psychological health and well-being has been sparse. Thus, we interviewed 13 current Black male college football players to document their experiences. T…
NCAA coaches’ perceptions of the inclusion of transgender athletes: A qualitative analysis
The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) established policies for the inclusion of transgender athletes to compete in collegiate sport that align with their gender identity. Despite this access, the extent to which collegiate sport environments are welcoming, inclusive and supportive of transgender athletes is unclear. Understanding coaches' perceptions and attitudes is particularly salient given the critical, and often personal, natur…
Body Satisfaction and Disordered Eating Among Black Women Student Athletes: An Examination of Resilience, Self-Compassion, and Social Support
Low levels of body satisfaction have been consistently linked to disordered eating behaviors among women. However, few researchers have explored the mechanisms explaining this relationship among subgroups of women, who because of their social positioning (e.g., gender, race, and athlete status) may differ in the etiology of disordered eating. Accordingly, we surveyed 354 Black women student athletes (ages 18-24) to assess psychosocial health fact…
Selective Optimization and Compensation, Skilled Golf Performance, and Age
The present study tests predictions regarding skilled golf performance and age-based upon Selection, Optimization, and Compensation (SOC) theory. Participants were 1,324 adults (17–85 years old) who competed in a three-day major amateur golf tournament. Findings indicated that older golfers were most likely to identify difficulties in their games worthy of remediation, relied on performance-enhancing equipment to the greatest degree, and scored h…

Appearance and performance enhancing drug usage and psychological well-being in gay and heterosexual men
The current study examined the relationship between appearance and performance enhancing drug use and the men’s sexual orientation to body image and psychological well-being in a sample of 537 heterosexual men and 146 gay men. Using objectification theory as a framework, we proposed that gay men who used appearance and performance enhancing drugs (APEDs) would report the most distress across our measures of body image, internalization, and psycho…
Sexual orientation, eating disorder classification, and men’s psychosocial well-being
In a sample of 676 men, we examined (a) the relationship between men's eating disorder (ED) classification (asymptomatic vs. symptomatic/clinical) to theoretically and empirically identified psychosocial correlates (i.e., body image concerns, sociocultural pressures, internalization processes, and depressive symptomatology) and (b) determined the extent to which sexual orientation moderated those relationships. To test our hypotheses, we used the…

The Relationship of Physical Fitness, Self-Beliefs, and Social Support to the Academic Performance of Middle School Boys and Girls

Assessing the validity of the Weight Pressures in Sport Scale for Male Athletes
Male athletes are subject to sociocultural pressures to attain a lean and muscular physique (e.g., media images), as well as weight pressures from the sport environment (e.g., performance). The purpose of our study was to examine the validity and reliability of a scale designed to measure sport-specific weight pressures in male athletes, the Weight Pressures in Sport Scale for Male Athletes (WPS-M). We examined the factorial validity of the WPS-M…
