Does Severity of an Injury Affect Academic Performance in Athletes?

Sean Banks-Duitch

Injury is a common problem that many athletes have to deal with. Many studies have shown that, following an injury, athletes are prone to suffer various negative psychological effects. These can include anything from depression to lowered self-esteem. But what happens to college athletes who suffer an injury? How is their academic performance affected? And, what, if any, are the differences in a player who has sustained a mild injury and a player who’s injury ends their career?

Proposal

Literature Review (First Draft)
This page includes relevant research that has been conducted concerning the present study. It, eventually, will be the introduction to my thesis.

Methods
Who will be participating in this research? How will the data be obtained? How will the confidentiality of the athletes be maintained? All of these questions, and more, are answered here.
