Research output: Contribution to conference › Presentation

Abstract

The poster found that student athletes perceived high levels of support from significant others in terms of general support, instrumental support and engagement in social justice causes. The greatest level of support came from parents, friends and teammates. Interestingly, there were no practical differences in perceived support based on gender, race or previous engagement in activism related to social justice causes.
