“…31 And lastly, defensive high-anxious coping involves high trait anxiety and high social desirability. 29 The athletes who used the repressive style mostly resembled avoidance coping. 27 In that study the repressors reported higher self-confidence than the low-anxious athletes and the high-anxious and defensive high-anxious athletes reported the highest cognitive anxiety and the lowest self-confidence.…”

Social support systems can be a key aspect in the overall health of the athlete, both physically and psychologically. It is important to be aware if an athlete is receiving the appropriate social support to aid them through their career. Objective: The purpose of this study is to determine which types of social support systems are used and who provides the different types of support. A secondary purpose is to investigate the types of social support that are perceived to be most important. Design: A prospective descriptive analysis about the influence of social support systems after an athlete is injured within club sports was used. The information was gathered by individual questionnaires as well as a face to face interview. Setting: A NCAA Division I institution in north central West Virginia. Participants and Other Patients: There were a total of 7 participants, both male and female, that completed the questionnaire and the interview. Seventy one and four tenths percent of the participants played rugby (n=5), while the remaining participants played ice hockey (n=2). The mean age was 21.29 + 1.38 Interventions: A 10-item demographic questionnaire and a social support questionnaire on the types of support provided were distributed to the club sport athletes at West Virginia University. There was also a 15 minute interview consisting of 10 questions that each athlete completed. Main Outcomes Measures: Coaches and certified athletic trainers will play an important role in the social support system in collegiate club sport athletes. Listening support, emotional support, reality conformation, and personal assistance will be ranked as most important to the club sport athletes. Athletic trainers will play an important role in providing listening support, coaches will be important providers of task challenge and task appreciation, and teammates will be important providers of reality conformation and emotional support. Results: The results of this study show that these club sport athletes are overall satisfied with the social support that they have received during injury rehabilitation. Athletic trainers were identified to have provided the most listening support in both the questionnaire (mean rank=1.57, 71.4%, n=5) and the interview. Coaches were also reported to have provided task appreciation (mean rank=1.71, 51.7%, n=4) and task challenge (mean rank=1.29, 71.4%, n=5) Athletic trainers were also the most common reported provider of overall social support in both the interview and the questionnaire (71.4%, n=5). Other common providers of social support mentioned by these athletes were family, teammates/friends, and coaches. The results from the questionnaire did not find any type of social support that was reported as most important. Conclusion: Collegiate club sport athletes are aware and satisfied with the support that they received during injury rehabilitation. These athletes reported how important their athletic trainer's role was in injury rehabilitation. Most club sports do not have an athletic trainer as member...

It is important to study how children and adolescents cope with stressors in sport because effective coping enhances sport experiences and prevents psychological and physiological problems that can lead to sport withdrawal. The purpose of this review was to summarize the existing child and adolescent coping research to establish how coping changes with development in the achievement context of sport. We reviewed and summarized relevant coping research published from 1980 to 2004 using a 'content analysis' approach to identify consistencies and limitations in this literature. Four content areas were examined: coping responses, gender differences, consistency of coping/coping style, and coping effectiveness. Ways in which coping changes with development from childhood to adolescence were examined within each of these content areas. Fundamental future research questions and implications for research design are presented.
