Based on the theory, self-esteem is a sense of \u201cpersonal value\u201d created by beliefs through an individual&#8217;s cultural worldview to protect from one\u2019s concern with mortality (Greenberg et al., 1986). The current study investigates the relationship between different athletic injuries (i.e., sports-related or non-sports-related injuries) and athletes\u2019 self-esteem following reminders of death. An athlete\u2019s injuries can heavily influence their self-esteem, especially when an injury was acquired during a game versus outside the playing field. If an athlete\u2019s self-esteem is closely tied to being an athlete, and this self-esteem protects against concerns about death, then an injury will be particularly damaging when death is made salient. To test this, participants will be randomly assigned to think about death or a dental pain control questionnaire. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two articles regarding professional athlete injuries, where one athlete was injured during a game and the other injury outside of a game environment. Our dependent measures will be how much importance they place on being an athlete (versus other aspects of their identity) through an athlete rating scale which will determine their level of athleticism. This study hypothesizes that participants will rate athletes with sports-related injuries as having higher self-esteem as well as rating them more positively, than those with injuries outside of performance. This study mainly allows us to bridge the social and sports psychology gap.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Details<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Session 2<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3:00pm \u2013 4:30pm<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Grand Salon<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-comments\">\n\n\n\n\n\n\t<div id=\"respond\" class=\"comment-respond wp-block-post-comments-form\">\n\t\t<h3 id=\"reply-title\" class=\"comment-reply-title\">Leave a Reply <small><a rel=\"nofollow\" id=\"cancel-comment-reply-link\" href=\"\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/483#respond\" style=\"display:none;\">Cancel reply<\/a><\/small><\/h3><form action=\"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-comments-post.php\" method=\"post\" id=\"commentform\" class=\"comment-form\"><p class=\"comment-notes\"><span id=\"email-notes\">Your email address will not be published.<\/span> <span class=\"required-field-message\">Required fields are marked <span class=\"required\">*<\/span><\/span><\/p><p class=\"comment-form-comment\"><label for=\"comment\">Comment <span class=\"required\">*<\/span><\/label> <textarea id=\"comment\" name=\"comment\" cols=\"45\" rows=\"8\" maxlength=\"65525\" required><\/textarea><\/p><p class=\"comment-form-author\"><label for=\"author\">Name <span class=\"required\">*<\/span><\/label> <input id=\"author\" name=\"author\" type=\"text\" value=\"\" size=\"30\" maxlength=\"245\" autocomplete=\"name\" required \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-email\"><label for=\"email\">Email <span class=\"required\">*<\/span><\/label> <input id=\"email\" name=\"email\" type=\"email\" value=\"\" size=\"30\" maxlength=\"100\" aria-describedby=\"email-notes\" autocomplete=\"email\" required \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-url\"><label for=\"url\">Website<\/label> <input id=\"url\" name=\"url\" type=\"url\" value=\"\" size=\"30\" maxlength=\"200\" autocomplete=\"url\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"comment-form-cookies-consent\"><input id=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\" name=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\" type=\"checkbox\" value=\"yes\" \/> <label for=\"wp-comment-cookies-consent\">Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.<\/label><\/p>\n<p class=\"form-submit\"><input name=\"submit\" type=\"submit\" id=\"submit\" class=\"submit\" value=\"Post Comment\" \/> <input type='hidden' name='comment_post_ID' value='483' id='comment_post_ID' \/>\n<input type='hidden' name='comment_parent' id='comment_parent' value='0' \/>\n<\/p><p style=\"display: none !important;\" class=\"akismet-fields-container\" data-prefix=\"ak_\"><label>&#916;<textarea name=\"ak_hp_textarea\" cols=\"45\" rows=\"8\" maxlength=\"100\"><\/textarea><\/label><input type=\"hidden\" id=\"ak_js_1\" name=\"ak_js\" value=\"69\"\/><script>\ndocument.getElementById( \"ak_js_1\" ).setAttribute( \"value\", ( new Date() ).getTime() );\n<\/script>\n<\/p><\/form>\t<\/div><!-- #respond -->\n\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Marisa Gonzales, Josey Martin, &amp; Dr. Melissa Soenke<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":112,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5,3,10],"tags":[18],"class_list":["post-483","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","category-poster","category-presentations","category-session-2-poster","tag-psychology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/483","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=483"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/483\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":633,"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/483\/revisions\/633"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=483"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=483"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/src.cikeys.com\/2023\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=483"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
