|a The purpose of this thesis was to examine the relationship between the socioeconomic status (SES) and athletic achievement motivation among undergraduate students. Previous literature has examined the impact of socioeconomic status on development and academic achievement motivation. Findings have suggested that families with lower socioeconomic statuses do not have access to the same amount of services, educational benefits, and face more challenges such as higher levels of financial stress than families with higher economic statuses. Motivation to achieve also spans across the context of participation in sports. Higher levels of intrinsic motivation related to sports performance have been found to be associated with athletes who possess a mastery-goal approach. Literature examining the relationship between athletic achievement motivation and SES is sparse. This study examined collegiate athletes and their athletic achievement motivation related to their SES. Participants were recruited from two private-universities in the United States. Participants completed a brief demographic and the Sports Motivation Questionnaire. Responses were analyzed using two one-way ANOVAs and demographic data was reported. |
