Is Help-Seeking for Mental Health Concerns "Normal" for College Athletes? A Social Norm Perspective.
As mental health issues are prevalent among athletes, research is warranted to examine athletes' help-seeking for mental health concerns. This study examined the relationship between social norms and college athletes' mental health help-seeking intentions. Analysis of cross-sectional survey data from 290 college athletes in the United States and Canada revealed that after accounting for key control variables, descriptive norms from parents (i.e., perceptions that parents would seek help) were positively associated with athletes' help-seeking intentions. Descriptive norms from coaches, teammates, and friends were not associated with help-seeking intentions. Relationships between descriptive norms and help-seeking intentions were not moderated by social identity or injunctive norms. The findings suggest that descriptive norms may have a small, but meaningful relationship with intentions to seek help for mental health concerns, depending on the person from whom the social norms originate.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Sport & Exercise Psychology (JSEP) is a peer-reviewed publication designed to stimulate and communicate research theory in all areas of sport and exercise psychology. JSEP emphasizes original research reports that advance our understanding of human behavior as it relates to sport and exercise. Comprehensive reviews employing both qualitative and quantitative methods are also encouraged, as well as brief reports of soundly designed research studies that are of special interest or importance. Areas of interest include research in social, clinical, developmental, and experimental psychology, as well as psychobiology and personality. Moreover, the terms sport and exercise may pertain to either the independent or dependent variables. Generally speaking, work on motor control processes, studies of sport as a social institution, or broader social issues are beyond the scope of JSEP. A wide variety of methods are acceptable for studying sport and exercise psychology topics.
