Studies have shown that psychosocial factors, including psychological needs and measures of student motivation, may be related to student success. Objective To examine the relationships between psychological needs (autonomy, competence, and relatedness), measures of student motivation (controlled and autonomous motivation, self-efficacy, and academic and athletic trainer identity), and measures of student success (persistence, intention to leave, perceived academic performance, and grade point average [GPA]) in athletic training students. Design Cross-sectional. Setting Entry-level master’s athletic training programs. Patients or Other Participants Ninety-seven current entry-level master’s athletic tra...

Over the course of one season, players had significantly higher (p=0.001) cumulative LA during practices (10,247.18g ± 8,730.69g) than games (5,271.17g ± 5,196.77g). Cumulative LA during practices were significantly higher (p<0.001) in LINE (19,692.43 g ± 7,338.59 g) than SKILL (4,645.91 ± 2,872.57g). However, there was no significant difference (p=0.079) between LINE cumulative LA (7,830.19g ± 6,453.36g) and SKILL cumulative LA (3,264.15g ± 3,538.72g) during games. Mean LA during practices were significantly higher (p=0.027) in LINE (27.67g ± 2.54g) than SKILL (25.32g ± 2.85g). Conversely, mean LA during games were not significantly different (p=0.944) between SKILL (29.04g ± 6.11g) and LINE (29.24g ± 4.11g). CONCLUSION: Over the course of a single football season, line-position players experienced significantly higher cumulative LA compared to skill-position players during both practices and games. This could be due to the more total contact hours that line-players experience than skill-position players.

However, an expert consensus for clinicians working with these populations is lacking. Objective: To provide current expert consensus on the (1) definition of MH; (2) history, etiology, and pathophysiology of MH; (3) epidemiology of MH; (4) association of MH with EHS and ER; (5) identification of an MH-like syndrome; (6) recommendations for acute management of an MH-like syndrome; (7) special considerations for physically active populations; and (8) future directions for research. Setting: An interassociation task force was formed by experts in athletic training, exercise science, anesthesiology, and emergency medicine. The “Round Table on Malignant Hyperthermia in Physically Active Populations” was convened at the University of Connecticut, Storrs, September 17–18, 20...
College Athletic Directors’ Perceptions of Sport Psychology Consulting

ADs were confused about appropriate training for SPCs, highlighted by the fact that 66.7% were unaware of any certification for SPCs. Although ADs’ attitudes toward SPCs did not differ based on previous experience with SPCs, there was a statistically significant difference between ADs who were aware of the Association for Applied Sport Psychology (AASP) and those who were unaware. Results demonstrate the need to educate potential employers regarding appropriate qualifications for SPCs. The discussion culminates with suggestions for future research and recommendations for enhancing effectiveness of outreach programs.
