Psychosocial Identity and Career Control in College Student-Athletes.
Brown, Chris; Glastetter-Fender, Chandra; Shelton, Matthew
Journal of Vocational Behavior, v56 n1 p53-62 Feb 2000
A study of 189 college student-athletes showed that hours of sport participation, identity foreclosure, and career locus of control were inversely related to career decision-making self-efficacy. They reported spending 20-30 hours per week participating in their sport, but few expected to have a professional career. (SK)
