Study is intended to better understand interest levels, as well as barriers and facilitators, for exercise-based intervention studies for student-athletes transitioning into college.

This study intends to do that by examining how NIL impacts both the athletic and academic outcomes for Black, female student-athletes in the evolving landscape of collegiate sports.

This study aims to understand how Exercise and Sport Science (EXSS) students use generative AI (GenAI) for everyday and coursework purposes, and the barriers and facilitators to its use in these settings. GenAI is growing in use among college students and it is important to understand how students apply this technology into their college education.

To evaluate the efficacy of a 1-week proof-of-concept GE intervention on kinesiophobia and postural control in those with CAI.

The goal of this study is to examine the relationship between mental health concerns (e.g., anxiety, depression, and stress) and PAUSE-Cardio, a 6-week moderate-intensity cardiovascular exercise intervention program for women's sport student-athletes transitioning into college and collegiate sport. Under Purposeful, Authentic, and Unifying Student-Athlete Experiences (PAUSE) programming, this study is a cardiovascular comparison intervention with matched aims and methods to the ACC-CRIA funded PAUSE-Yoga study. This longitudinal study examines the feasibility and effectiveness of PAUSE-Cardio to mitigate anxiety, depression, and stress.

There exists limited empirical evidence to inform the structure and content of the current NCAA exit interviews which restricts their impact on post-career health and well-being. This study hopes to bridge that gap and to understand the student-athlete transition experience including outcomes of mental, physical, social, and occupational functioning. In this aim, we are inviting you to participate in an evidence-based, survey addendum to the standard of care exit interview. A total of 120 individuals will be invited to participate in this portion of the study. A subgroup of 30 participants will be invited to participate in a follow-up interview. If you are selected for follow-up, we will reach out to you in no more than 60 days after the completion of this survey.

We plan to better understand the barriers and facilitators perceived by high school coaches, athletic directors, and principals that are weighed when deciding whether to implement an ACL injury prevention program. Gaining this knowledge is an important first step in the development of programming to increase coach implementation of ACL injury prevention programs at the high school level.

The study explores imposter syndrome in EXSS undergraduates and factors associated with it.

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of an 8-week yoga mindfulness meditation to identify the relationship between mindfulness yoga and stress, depression, and anxiety. Participants: Forty- four women sports student-athletes ages 18 and over in their first two years of undergraduate study at ACC member universities within a four-hour drive of the home institution. This will allow for the delivery of PAUSE-Yoga materials. Participants will complete a survey prior to the program with demographic information and the following scales: Academic Identity Measurement Scale, Athlete Identity Measurement Scale, Exercise Identity Scale, Depression, Anxiety, and Stress Scale, The International Adjustment Disorder Questionnaire, Transition Plan, Subjective Physical and Mental Health, Social Support, and Resource List. Another survey will be administered post-program with the same scales as the pre-program. Eight, 45-minute Zoom yoga sessions will be completed over 8 weeks for the PAUSE- Yoga group.

To examine the relationship of queer culture, body neutrality/positivity, and exercise-related stigma and anxiety in a specialized yoga setting.
