dc.description.abstractThe increase in the importance of sports and success has been widespread across the globe. A high value on performance and the role an individual plays has positively grown along with the importance of sports. This growth of sports has been even more profound at universities. Individuals are now at the center of attention for the success and performance of the team. This can create a difficult or anxious environment for athletes. Athletes can define themselves by their roles and positions on the team which can influence their performance negatively or positively. This research investigates an athlete's self-perceived level of motivation and role to determine an effect, if any, between role perception and motivation. A secondary investigation within the survey will examine if there is any interaction between the amount of play time (starter, impact player, or bench) and a self-reported desire to advance their role. A survey was created and distributed to Milligan University, Eastern Tennessee State University, and Tennessee Wesleyan University student-athletes.en_US
