|a The use of performance enhancing supplements among athletes has increased over time. The purpose of this study is to determine NCAA Division II athlete’s frequency of usage and knowledge of performance enhancing drug. South Florida NCAA Division II schools were asked to participate, and five agreed to participate. Among those five schools, a total of seventy-four student athletes participated in this study. Flyers were posted in the athletic training rooms for the student athletes to see and ask their athletic trainer to take the survey. Results show that 23% of the student athletes are currently taking performance enhancing supplements. A total at 33.8% of student athletes currently taking performance enhancing supplements have good knowledge of what they are taking. 43.75% of the student athletes that are taking performance enhancing supplement report they do not know if their supplement is banned by the NCAA, however 81.3% of these student athletes state they do know where to retrieve the information if their supplement is banned or not. No significant difference was found between expected and actual outcomes between age, gender and sport. In conclusion, this was a preliminary study done on division II student athletes that showed positive results in the areas of frequency of use, knowledge of supplements, as well as knowledge of where to retrieve information on banned substances, |
