Sport Management Education Journal, v17 n1 p1-16 Apr 2023
Drawing from Strayhorn's model of educational sense of belonging and Vaccaro and Newman's model of belonging for privileged and minoritized students, this study utilized a mixed-method approach to examine to what extent students from minoritized groups feel like they belong in the sport management classroom. Significant differences in sense of belonging were found based on visible identities such as gender or race. In addition, our qualitative data revealed five higher-order themes that positively or negatively impacted students' sense of belonging across identity groups: (1) representation; (2) community; (3) support; (4) accomplishments; and (5) academic and professional experience. Limitations, implications, and directions for future research are discussed.
