The exploitation of college athletes has been a topic of controversy within American higher education for over half of a century. Especially in the revenue-generating sports of men's basketball and football, critics have highlighted the surplus gains expropriated by colleges and universities on the backs of these young men, who are disproportionately Black (Eitzen, 2000; Hawkins, 2010; Rhoden, 2006). To date, only a few studies (Adler & Adler, 1991; Beamon, 2008; Leonard, 1986) have explored the idea of exploitation from the perspective of college athletes, and the limitations of these reports reveal the need for a more comprehensive and comparative analysis. The proposed Perceived Exploitation of College Athletes (PECA) Questionnaire is an internally consistent three-item scale (a = 0.80). Utilizing this three-item exploitation scale on a sample of 581 Division I college athletes, Van Rheenen (2011) found significant differences by gender, sport, and race. Participants on the revenue-generating sports of men's basketball and football were over seven times more likely to report feeling exploited than their peers on nonrevenue sports teams. Van Rheenen (2011) also found significant differences by race in self-reported perceptions of being exploited. The odds of Black college athletes feeling exploited were nearly five times as great as that of White varsity athletes and four times as great as student athletes who identified as Hispanic, Asian, Native American, or any other racial group. The Perceived Exploitation of College Athletes (PECA) Questionnaire, if found to be statistically valid and reliable as hypothesized, will help researchers and student affairs practitioners interested in this important area. Findings could inform administrators and educators about the need to reform institutional policies related to recruiting, academic support services, career counseling, and compensation. This article describes the outcomes of a study undertaken between the years 2006 and 2009 in which 750 NCAA Division I college athletes participating in 25 different sports programs at a large public university on the West Coast of the United States completed a survey that included the following three items: (a) "Sometimes I feel that I am being taken advantage of as an athlete," (b) "I give more to the university than it gives to me," and (c) "This university make too much money off its athletes, who see very little of it" (a = 0.80). Along with the perceived exploitation items, college athletes were also asked to identify their primary sport, gender, race or ethnicity, year in school, and scholarship status. The results provide evidence that the PECA is a statistically valid and reliable scale that can be recommended for further use by researchers and clinicians interested in issues related to the exploitation of college athletes.
