Description

The goal of our research project was to determine if there is a difference between the mental health status of college athletes compared to non-athletes here at the University of Dayton. There are certain stressors that come with being an athlete that may not affect non-athlete college-aged students. This research was conducted to find out what those stressors are and if they negatively impact the mental health of athletes.
