  • Identifying Sources of Self Confidence in Collegiate Athletes and Factors that Affect it

    Flamholtz, Morgan (SUNY Brockport, Department of Kinesiology, Sport Studies, and Physical Education, 2022-12-12)
    The importance of self-confidence within collegiate level athletes has increased tremendously in recent years. Identifying the sources of self-confidence is the first step to understanding the roots of it within collegiate athletes. The next step is reviewing factors that influence it. These factors could include coaches, peers, or the climate the athlete competes in. Understanding how to positively or negatively affect self-confidence, could allow an athlete to compete to their highest potential. The purpose of this synthesis project is to review the literature on the sources of selfconfidence in collegiate athletes.
  • The Prevalence of Eating Disorders Among Male Collegiate Athletes

    Goss, Brittney (SUNY Brockport, Department of Kinesiology, Sport Studies, and Physical Education, 2021-12-14)
    Eating disorders have been a common topic surrounding collegiate athletes. Previous research has been mostly geared towards female athletes due to societal stigmas. Over time, research has shown that male collegiate athletes are just as susceptible to developing eating disorders and disordered eating behaviors. Although it is a less common issue for males, previous research has shown that disordered eating behaviors such as excessive exercising and supplement use are quite common for male collegiate athletes. Male athletes are now being viewed as an at-risk population for developing eating disorders and disordered eating behaviors due to the sports they participate in, pressures in and out of sport as well as the lack of education in athletic departments. The purpose of this synthesis was to review the literature on the prevalence of eating disorders among male collegiate athletes.
  • The Effect of Eating Disorders on Sports Performance in Elite or College Athletes

    Ludden, Paul (SUNY Brockport, Department of Kinesiology, Sport Studies, and Physical Education, 2021-12-17)
    As the sports world has pushed performance levels to new heights, elite athletes are pushing boundaries to find ways to increase their performance. With increased pressure on elite performance, the importance of understanding eating disorders in elite or college athletes has become increasingly important. Analysis of previous research of eating disorders in elite athletes has shown that performance decreases as the prevalence of eating disorders or disordered eating is shown in elite athletes. Research also shows an increase in mental and emotional health challenges when elite athletes have eating disorders or experience disordered eating habits. It has been suggested that to prevent future eating disorders in elite athletes, education of all athletic personnel and athletes is vital to keeping athletes safe. The purpose of this synthesis was to review the literature on how eating disorders affect the performance of elite and college athletes.
  • The Impact of Parental Involvement on their Child’s Participation in Organized Sports

    Mirizio, Niko (SUNY Brockport, Department of Kinesiology, Sport Studies, and Physical Education, 2021-12-17)
    As youth sports have become a foundation to developing skills and traits for young athletes, parents also play a crucial role in the development and wellbeing of the child. Analysis of previous research on parental involvement in youth sports shows both positive and negative factors relating to the child’s experience and health. Research shows that parents that are negatively involved in their child’s athletics can create stressful environments as well as decrease the child’s confidence and self-esteem. Positive involvement, however, can create a strong bond between the parent and child and increase confidence and self-esteem. Finding the proper balance of involvement can allow the child to flourish and enjoy their sport as much as possible. The purpose of this synthesis project is to review the impact of parental involvement on their child’s participation in organized sport.

  • Becoming a Nurse Practitioner: An Oral History

    Pulcini, Grace (SUNY Brockport, Department of History, 2019)
    University nursing programs developed Nurse Practitioner (NP) certification in the 1970s to provide primary care to underserved communities. By the 1980s-1990s, however, the NP role had become more specialized. We were interested in what motivated the second wave of nurses to pursue a NP certification. Using Oral History Interviews, we focused primarily on Nursing faculty members and NP staff at College Health Centers in the Rochester region.
