DESCRIPTION:Title: The Impact of the Coach-Athlete Relationship on Confiden
 ce and Passion in Division I NCAA Athletes\n\nProgram: Kinesiology MS\n\nC
 ommittee Chair: Eric Martin\n\nCommittee: Eric Martin\, Mandy Kirkham\, Sc
 ott Moorcroft\n\nAbstract: Introduction: Reaching the Division I NCAA leve
 l takes the proper physical skill\, as well as the vital mental skills and
  guidance to endure and overcome regular hardships and adversity. One reso
 urce that athletes can draw from is their relationship with their coach. S
 pecifically\, the coach-athlete relationship can be measured through the t
 rust between the pair (closeness)\, mutual understanding (commitment)\, co
 rresponding goals (complementarity)\, and congruent feelings\, thoughts\, 
 and behaviors (co-orientation\; Jowett & Shanmugam\, 2016). In addition to
  having a healthy and supportive coach-athlete relationship\, confidence a
 nd passion are two important mental skills that can impact an athlete’s 
 feelings towards their sport and achievement. Confidence is an essential e
 lement to sport\, giving an athlete a general self-belief in their ability
  to perform their sport successfully\, while also being crucial in high pr
 essure situations where self-doubt and fear may become present. Passion is
  the overall desire to partake in an activity\, developing from a place of
  enjoyment and love for the activity. Passion is key when faced with hards
 hips or setbacks\, yet passion can quickly become negative if the feeling 
 manifests obsessively\, rather than harmoniously. Purposes: The first purp
 ose of this study is to measure the quality of the coach-athlete relations
 hip\, confidence levels\, and levels of harmonious and obsessive passion a
 mong Division I NCAA athletes. The second purpose of this study is to inve
 stigate the relationship between the coach-athlete relationship\, confiden
 ce\, and passion among Division I NCAA athletes. Methods: 226 Division I N
 CAA athletes completed surveys that included the Coach-Athlete Relationshi
 p Questionnaire (CART-Q\, Jowett and Ntoumanis\, 2004\; Appendix I)\, the 
 Trait-Sport Confidence Inventory (TSCI\, Vealey\, 1986\; Appendix II)\, an
 d the Passion Scale (Vallerand et al.\, 2003\; Appendix III). Statistical 
 Analysis: We reported means and standard deviations of the CART-Q\, TSCI\,
  and Passion Scale. Additionally\, to test group differences between gende
 r\, sport type\, and grade\, we ran a series of MANOVA analyses. Finally\,
  we ran a multivariate multiple regression analysis to analyze if the subd
 imensions of the coach-athlete relationship predicted confidence and passi
 on. Results: Athletes reported high scores on the CART-Q and each subscale
 \, as well as high levels of confidence and harmonious passion and moderat
 e levels of obsessive passion. Additionally\, we found that each subscale 
 of the CART-Q was predictive of athletes’ confidence levels and harmonio
 us passion\, while unrelated to obsessive passion. Discussion: In conclusi
 on\, fostering high quality coach-athlete relationships can impact crucial
  psychological elements\, enhancing athletes’ confidence and promoting m
 ore adaptive forms of motivation\, like harmonious passion.
