Psychological Consequences Of Athletic Injury Most Prevalent Among Male Intercollegiate Athletes
[ send me this paper ]
14 pages in length. Forced withdrawal from a given sport due to injury represents one of the most important elements of the anger, depression and anxiety male intercollegiate athletes experience. The addiction of sports places a considerable amount of pressure for athletes who are injured, inasmuch as they are unable to partake in the sport
they love or compete with others who are just as obsessed with it as they are. This myopic vision is impacted even more when an individual is forced to endure weeks or even months off the field for an injury that is looked upon as both nuisance and unfair. The writer discusses the psychological consequences of athletic injury most prevalent
among male intercollegiate athletes. Bibliography lists 17 sources.

Turns to the classical
writings to support the emphasis that in order to grow and prosper we
must continually examine the consequences of our actions in terms of
societal welfare. Emphasizes that it is not enough to simply accept a

Research Proposal: The Psychology of Exercise
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page research
proposal seeking to gain insight into exercise motivation for the purpose of weight loss. It
appears that individuals who exercise for reasons other than for weight loss have far less
difficulty in maintaining their exercise programs. Whether lack of motivation or level of
difficulty are involved is unclear. This proposed research seeks to gain insight that can be
used in practical application, such as approaching the issue with dieters from a different
perspective, perhaps highlighting exercise's other benefits of acting as an anti-depressive.
Bibliography lists 8 sources.
