The following research study aimed to focus on the challenges that collegiate student-athletes face regarding career decision-making and psychological well-being in association with their athletic identity. Previous research has focused on how student-athletes have a limited ability to engage in career exploration activities due to the rigorous schedules, which may lead to elevated career indecision. Collegiate student-athletes face may face unique challenges in balancing the multiple identities they hold during their collegiate careers, athletics, and academics. Theoretical frameworks like Erikson's identity development and Super's Self-Concept Theory are used to understand the impact of athletic identity and career choices. The research sought to compare collegiate student-athletes across division placement (e.g., I and II) and injury status (e.g., no injury status, mild, moderate, severe) to gain insight into how the strength of athletic identity can impact career decision-making and the psychological well-being of this population. The inclusion of athletic injury as a variable career-making king is a novel approach to understanding the complex relationship between athletic identity, career decision-making, and psychological well-being. The results of the study revealed that amongst the 72 participants, athletic identity had a negative relationship with career indecision. This contradicted the hypothesis as levels of athletic identity rose, career indecision decreased. The results of the study rejected the initial hypotheses set forth as athletic identity did have an association with other aspects of career decision-making (e.g., career decision-making self-efficacy, career decision-making anxiety) and psychological well-being. The study showed that athletic identity may have a positive influence on self-efficacy and resilience in career decision-making and psychological well-being. The sample studied showed that athletic identity could lower levels of career indecision and also showed no association between other aspects of career decision-making and psychological well-being. The results highlight the importance of how university mental health professionals and career support providers can support student-athletes in their transition to life after sport by using a strengths-based approach and the strength and resilience they have developed during their years in athletics.
