Abstract
Sports participation has been associated with improved cognitive function, decision-
making, and overall well-being but balancing all of these roles remains a challenge for both
student-athletes and sports enthusiasts. This study examines the relationship between athletic
identity, achievement emotions, academic resilience, and life success among student-athletes
and sports enthusiasts. Using a differential research design, data were collected from individuals
aged 18-25 with a total of 174 student-athletes and 173 sports enthusiasts in Manila, Quezon
City, and Mandaluyong through validated tools, including Athletic Identity Measurement Scale,
Achievement Emotions Questionnaire, Academic Resilience Scale, and Life Orientation Scale.
Proportionate Stratified Sampling was used and MANOVA and ANOVA were used to evaluate and
assess the respondents. Results showed that student-athletes scored higher in athletic identity
and achievement emotions, reflecting their connection to sports and emotional engagement.
Sports Enthusiasts showed greater academic resilience, showing their ability to adapt and
overcome challenges in an academic setting. Both groups showed similar levels of life success,
suggesting that sports involvement, either professional or recreational, contributes to personal
growth. Balancing sports and academics are crucial to promoting a more holistic development,
and targeted support systems can benefit both groups. Future studies are encouraged to
investigate additional factors such as cultural and environmental influences, to better
understand these factors and guide interventions.

CHAPTER 1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
Introduction
The relationship between athletic identity, achievement emotions, academic resilience,
and life success in both athletes and sports enthusiasts is an increasingly relevant topic in today’s
society. As sports participation continues to be a significant part of many individuals' lives, it is
crucial to understand how involvement in sports shapes identity, emotional well-being, and
academic performance. While athletes often build a strong athletic identity through their
achievements and social roles within sports, the loss of this identity especially for those who do
not pursue professional careers can present significant challenges. Navigating this transition
requires appropriate support and resources, including the development of a multi-dimensional
identity that extends beyond sports (Vagifzade, 2023).
Beyond sports, the life success of athletes offers valuable insights into traits such as
determination, discipline, and teamwork, which are often transferable to other aspects of life.
These qualities can contribute not only to success in sports but also to personal and professional
achievements in various domains (O’Hara, 2019). Understanding the factors that underpin life
4

success in athletes can provide lessons for individuals striving to achieve their own goals and offer
strategies for improving well-being and long-term career development.
Despite the importance of these areas, limited research exists that examines the
combined effects of athletic identity, achievement emotions, academic resilience, and life
success, particularly in comparing athletes with sports enthusiasts. This study seeks to address
this gap in the literature, exploring the differences and similarities between these two groups
and contributing to a deeper understanding of how to support the personal and academic
development of both athletes and non-athletes. The findings of this study have the potential to
inform educational practices, sports management, and interventions that enhance the overall
well-being and success of students engaged in sports.
Student-athletes are a unique group of people with a distinct set of opportunities and
challenges. It can be an arduous effort for them to maintain a balance between their duties as
athletes and students. This is because they have to continue performing well academically and
giving their sport a lot of time and energy. Student-athletes are therefore viewed as a "Diverse
Special Population" with unique needs that set them apart from other students. In addition to
their scholastic and athletic achievements, student-athletes lead distinct lifestyles from those of
non-athletes (Billonid, 2020).

The Philippine Government issued the "Student-Athletes Protection Act" policy that
requires adherence to Republic Act No. 10676. This legislation forbids the commercialization of
student-athletes and controls residency requirements. The policy covers all primary education
institutions—public and private—HEIs, TVIs, and athletic associations (Manila Bulletin, 2021).
According to Secretary Briones (2021), a student-athlete is considered a student and should
receive benefits and incentives that encourage both academic success and athletic skill
development.
As of September 2021, the Philippines had 1,422 national athletes (Philippine Sports
Commission, 2021). These athletes compete for the nation in various sports, such as basketball,
volleyball, athletics, and many more. The country takes great pleasure in its national athletes,
who inspire many aspiring athletes nationwide with their perseverance and commitment to their
chosen sports. On the flip side, the Philippine Association of State Universities and Colleges
(PASUC) projects that this year, there will be over 1.3 million students in state-run primary and
higher education institutions. Approximately 1.1 million students are presently enrolled in
college programs (Magsambol, 2020).
In Mandaluyong City, the sports league includes a total of 813 participants across various
sports. Specifically, there are 339 players competing in Basketball, 262 in Men’s Volleyball, and
212 in Women’s Volleyball, all coming from the city's 24 barangays as of 2022. In Quezon City,
the league encompasses several districts with participants in basketball and volleyball from 2022
to 2023. In District 1, there are 30 participants representing 37 barangays. District 2 has 31
participants from 5 barangays. District 3 involves 30 participants from 37 barangays. District 4
features 30 participants representing 38 barangays. District 5 consists of 30 participants from 14
barangays, and District 6 includes 30 participants from 11 barangays, totaling 142 barangays.

A study by the Philippine Institute for Development Studies found that non-athlete
college students in the Philippines have lower levels of physical activity and poorer health habits
compared to their athlete peers. The study also found that non-athlete students have higher
levels of stress and anxiety due to academic pressures. However, the study notes a need for more
data on the health behaviors of college students in the Philippines, and more research is needed
to fully understand the health habits of non-athlete college students. A further study from the
University of the Philippines Diliman discovered that, compared to non-athlete peers, non-
athlete college students in the Philippines have higher levels of sedentary behavior and lower
levels of physical activity than their athlete peers (H Zhou, 2022). On the other hand, some studies
suggest that athlete students lead a healthier lifestyle than non-athlete students. This is because
organized sports training may benefit their physical and mental health. Athletes have improved
sleep, eating, and time management practices in addition to rigorous physical activity. In one
study, athletes report higher general health than non-athletes based on an analysis of women
aged 18-32 (Alamdarloo et al., 2019).
The statement mentioned above presents an interesting topic of discussion, namely the
comparison between athletes and sports enthusiasts. This comparison brings forth many
questions related to various aspects such as athletic identity, achievement emotion, academic
resilience, and life success. The findings will contribute to a better understanding of these two
groups and their potential implication for the school and sports community.

Sports Enthusiasts. Sports enthusiasts may comprehend how sports participation affects
resilience and academic performance. This information can help shape a more comprehensive
and versatile personality and make informed decisions about educational policies. The insights
into life success factors can also benefit sports enthusiasts, particularly when it comes to realizing
the transferable abilities that playing sports teaches that they can use to advance their careers.
Coaches and Trainers. Coaches can integrate new coaching strategies, leading to a more
comprehensive approach that considers an athlete's life's mental and academic aspects.
Understanding the athletic identity and achievement emotion can lead to more successful player
development initiatives.
School. Educational institutions can use the findings to modify their curriculum to better
serve both athletes and non-athletes, creating an environment that encourages both personal
growth and academic achievement.
Community. Gaining further insight into the connection between athletic identity and
success in life can help communities create programs that promote social cohesiveness and
highlight the beneficial effects of sports engagement on individual growth.
Future Researchers. This study can provide a basis for future studies in similar areas,
encouraging a more comprehensive understanding of the elements contributing to academic and
personal growth in athletes and non-athletes.
Hypothesis
The following will be tested at a 0.05 level of significance:
9
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
Theoretical Framework
This study anchored on Attribution Theory (Graham, 2020). This theory examines how
individuals explain the causes of both their own and other people's behaviors. Attribution theory
encompasses three dimensions. The first dimension refers to the locus of causality, which refers
to one's belief that their conduct or level of success is under their control. Based on how
researchers define the theory's framework, the locus of causality can be attributed in two ways:
internally or externally. For instance, when athletes perceive a win internally, they attribute it to
factors within themselves, such as talent and knowledge. Conversely, if an athlete experiences a
loss, they may explain or comprehend it externally, believing that the defeat was due to luck or
the difficulty of the competitive environment (for example, the opponent was ranked higher
before the start of the game). The second dimension, stability, is the expected and consistent
outcome or event. In other words, an individual will assess if the result is mainly permanent
(stable) or changeable (unstable). For example, if the athlete believes their win is based on skill,
the outcome is mostly consistent. The conclusion is relatively unpredictable and can result in
various outcomes if viewed based on chance or how much they have prepared. Lastly, the
dimension of controllability is explained as the individual's belief that they can affect the result
of the situation (controllable) or that it is beyond their control (uncontrollable). For example, the
situation is controllable if athletes attribute their victory to how hard they worked in the gym
over the summer. However, when an athlete attributes the outcome to luck or the superior
ability of other participants, the athlete may see the event as uncontrollable (Ahmann, 2023).
Attributions play a vital role in the sporting experience. Attribution processes are
particularly crucial in sports, as they often require compelling explanations for success and
failure. A study by Prosoli et al. (2023) found that athletes in combat sports like judo, karate, and
10
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
taekwondo often attribute success to internal, stable, personally controllable factors. Conversely,
they tend to attribute failure to external factors. Additionally, these athletes frequently believe
that psychological factors play a significant role in both their greatest successes and failures in
competition. This information can be helpful to coaches, athletes, and other people involved in
the sport because it could help them understand how athletes from combat sports explain their
successes and failures. Other than that, motivated people link failure to insufficient effort while
attributing success to ability as well as effort. These attributions, under the individual's control,
result in more effort after successes and failures. Failure-avoiding individuals, on the other hand,
attribute failure to a lack of ability and successes to luck, chance, and so on, and because these
factors are beyond their control, neither successes nor failures motivate to exert more effort in
attempting future tasks (Anundson, 2021).

The image illustrates how life success, achievement emotion, academic resilience, and
athletic identity differentiate between student-athletes and sports enthusiasts. The arrows
signify the links between these aspects, showing the impact on students.
For athletes, their performance in sports not only influences their athletic identity but
also spills over into other areas of life. Success in sports can boost overall life success and
contribute to positive emotions. Similarly, sports enthusiasts experience a connection between
academic resilience and their emotional state, highlighting the importance of perseverance in
academics. The figure explains the holistic nature of achievement, demonstrating that different
aspects of life are interrelated.
Understanding these connections can guide educators and mentors in fostering a well-
rounded approach to student development. Encouraging a balance between sports, academics,
and emotional well-being can contribute to overall success for both athlete and non-athlete
students. This visual representation serves as a valuable tool for comprehending the intricate
dynamics that shape students' experiences in several domains of their lives.
Output
This study utilized a quantitative research method to investigate various aspects,
including the demographic profile, levels of athletic identity, academic resilience, achievement
emotions, and life success of both student-athletes and sports enthusiasts, as well as the
differences between these variables. Data will be collected using survey questionnaires from
both student-athletes and sports enthusiasts. The process includes identifying gaps in existing
studies and literature, developing a research methodology, recruiting participants, gathering and
analyzing data, drafting a research report, and formulating recommendations. Finally, the
findings of the study aim to promote a well-rounded approach to balancing sports, academics,

CHAPTER 2
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURES AND STUDIES
This chapter includes a review of related literature and studies that the researchers have
perused to provide insight into the variables under study.
Athletic Identity
Research into athletic identity gained momentum in the 1990s (Edison & Rizzone, 2021).
However, before the emergence of the athlete as a distinct identity category, studies primarily
focused on the personality traits contributing to athletes' success and drew comparisons with
non-athletes. The concept of athletic identity pertains to the extent to which an individual
identifies with an athlete's role. It can range from a minor aspect to a significant part of their life.
This sense of identification can yield various outcomes in a person’s life; it can have advantageous
implications for one’s athletic performance, yet it may result in a decreased emphasis on
academic pursuits throughout their college years and challenges when transitioning away from
sports participation (Love and Rufer, 2021). Since identity can have both psychological and social
foundations, the more significance an individual assigns to their role as an athlete, the greater
the potential impact on their self-esteem, motivation, and overall perspective. Christino (2021)
further stated that athletes who specialize in their sport and begin training early tend to exhibit
a stronger athletic identity.
15
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
identity, as individuals derive a sense of accomplishment from excelling in their sport. Elite-level
involvement and sustained participation in sports were frequently correlated with one's self-
perception as an athlete, level of proficiency, and enjoyment of the sport. As a result, the athletic
self-perceptions that were formed during childhood and adolescence were reinforced over time.
While all athletes express some degree of identification with their athlete role, for some, their
athletic identity is a core aspect of their overall identity. (Newton et al., 2020). By integrating the
role of an athlete as a component of their self-identity, youth athletes can further focus their
energies on achieving athletic success (Wu et al., 2023).
Having a high level of athletic identity plays a crucial role in understanding career planning
by influencing awareness of career development and retirement (Cecic-Erpic et al., 2021).
Excessive athletic identity can lead to heightened involvement in sports, diverting attention from
social and career dimensions and diminishing consciousness about career management. This
overemphasis on sports is associated with various consequences, including fluctuations in
emotional stability tied to career decisions, humor disorders, substance abuse, unrealistic
expectations for a sports-related career, and a lack of preparation for life beyond the sports
realm. In essence, the level of Athletic Identity significantly shapes individuals' perceptions of
career paths, influencing their commitment to sports and impacting various aspects of their
personal and professional lives (Monteiro et al., 2021). Sagas (2023) further suggests that
students who are deeply involved in sports often put their games first, which might affect their
focus on studies and result in less impressive academic performance. In addition, students often
put their sports life first, especially those at the top levels. They see themselves more as athletes
than students. This mindset can shape their decisions about school and how they use educational
resources. They might not take full advantage of academic help services and focus more on
immediate sports achievements than long-term career plans. It is crucial to understand how their
sports and academic identities interact and affect their decisions and results in both school and
sports (Steele et al., 2020).
16
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
More recent research has transitioned towards exploring specific aspects, including
anxiety, mental toughness, optimism, and the dynamics of a lasting or diminishing athletic
identity, particularly in the context of discontinuing participation, such as in retirement. A prior
investigation of Olympic athletes found that those possessing a robust athletic identity often
neglect planning for career retirement, leading to repercussions in post-sports life. The degree of
athletic identity is linked to athletes' historical connection to sports, ongoing athletic
involvement, and personal encounters with successes and failures in the sporting realm. This
suggests that the intensity of athletic identity is intricately tied to an athlete's past and current
sports-related experiences, shaping their approach to career planning and post-sports
transitions. Furthermore, Martin et al. (2020) discovered that athletic identity was related to
positive results such as mental strength, and adverse results, like expanded liquor utilization
(Arnold & Liu, 2020). In addition, personality-related research is expanding to emphasize the
personalities of experts and how these characteristics influence individual practice reasoning,
administration conveyance, and the calling of game brain science itself (Andersen, 2020; Tod et
al., 2020; Wagstaff & Quartiroli, 2020). Stambulova (2021) proposes that support in games can
furnish undergrads with important fundamental abilities and mental advantages that might help
with personality arrangement.
The presence of athletic identity has been shown to positively impact an individual's
emotional attachment to sports, leading to favorable effects on engagement in physical activity
and athletic performance. Studies suggest that there is a positive association between athletic
identity and dedication to training, as well as a goal-oriented approach to sports. Athletes who
strongly identify with the athlete role tend to achieve higher performance outcomes and derive
greater enjoyment from sports compared to their counterparts who are less invested in the
athlete's identity. Some research further reveals that individuals who prioritize the athletic
aspect of their self-concept are more inclined to be physically active compared to those who do
not emphasize this component (Edison et al., 2021). Moreover, pioneering research was
17
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
conducted to initiate early and comprehensive efforts in defining and systematically studying
athletic identity. The results suggested that athletic identity functions as both a cognitive
framework and a social role, emerging from an individual's emotional connection and external
feedback from sources like teammates, coaches, parents, and spectators (Edison et al., 2021).
Despite the numerous positive effects of athletic identity on athletes, it comes with
significant drawbacks. Research on athletic identity emphasizes its adverse consequences on
athletes' roles beyond the realm of sports. A strong athletic identity can lead athletes to overly
prioritize their potential professional sporting career, diminishing their optimism about careers
outside of the sports domain. Encouraging athletes to consider non-sporting career options is
often challenging, particularly if they have exhausted all possibilities within the athletic field.
When athletic identity becomes dominant, athletes usually face transitional challenges,
experiencing a lack of direction or reduced career optimism upon retiring from sports or following
a catastrophic injury. In addition, athletes who are deeply immersed in their athletic pursuits may
suffer from burnout, a psychological syndrome characterized by emotional and physical
exhaustion, a sense of unaccomplishment, and a devaluation of their involvement in college
athletics. Huml and colleagues (2019) highlight that while athletic identity offers various
advantages, it also poses significant challenges, particularly regarding athletes' career
perspectives and well-being beyond their active sports careers. Failure to pursue other career
options might lead to academic isolation and a greater likelihood of identity foreclosure. Athletic
identity foreclosure happens when people commit to the athletic role without considering other
options. Society and parents frequently tolerate such roles, which can result in academic
detachment. Further, athletes commonly establish social bonds and friendships within their
sporting circles. However, experiencing burnout can result in reduced social interactions, as
individuals may distance themselves from teammates and coaches due to emotional fatigue and
waning interest in their sport. Consequently, this diminishes their feelings of belonging and
connection to their athletic identity (Marangoni et al, 2023).
18
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
Parent Drake (2023), said how she explores the multiple identities that female student-
athletes hold, highlighting the importance of their academic and athletic endeavors. It is clear
from a mix of surveys and interviews that these people value their educational pursuits and their
duties as athletes. Their experiences on the pitch or court become entwined with their athletic
identity, which becomes a significant part of their everyday lives. Nonetheless, our research
indicates that female student-athletes have a high emphasis on academic identity and
achievement, defying the assumption that players abandon their studies. They have a
noteworthy commitment to success in all areas, as seen by their comparable levels of dedication,
goal-setting, and positive academic and athletic experiences. Moreover, Turkeli (2020) stated
that it is clear that athletic identity scores are not substantially influenced by gender. Numerous
research has demonstrated that an individual's level of athletic identity is not influenced by their
gender identity. This result is consistent with the general agreement drawn from previous
studies. This research uses a cross-sectional study design to investigate the association between
19
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
participant athletic identity scores and gender. Researchers have consistently identified no
significant variance in athletic identity based on gender through statistical study and comparison.
These results support the idea that an individual's experiences, views, and interactions with
sports and physical activities shape their athletic identity, which is not innately correlated with
gender.
Achievement Emotion
Achievement emotions are the emotions that individuals experience in response to
events, which are evaluated based on the standards of quality associated with their competence
(Pekrun et al., 2023). Activity emotions and result feelings are the two main categories into which
Pekrun divides achievement emotions. Emotions related to an activity, such as delight or
boredom, are closely related to the process of learning. Conversely, outcome emotions—such as
pride, fear, embarrassment, or hope—are felt in reaction to whether tasks linked to achievement
are completed successfully or not (Meyer & Schlesier, 2021). The achievement emotions
framework has three components: valence, physiological arousal, and object focus. Valence
refers to the positive or negative nature of the emotion, while physiological arousal indicates the
intensity of the emotion. Object focus pertains to whether the emotion is related to the activity
20
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
or the outcome, in addition to considering the temporal relationship between the object and the
person during the emotional experience.
We interpret emotions based on appraisal theories, which suggest that emotions arise
from cognitive evaluations of a situation. The control value approach to achievement emotions
proposes that, for instance, if a student perceives and judges a university learning situation as
intrinsically relevant and controllable, positive emotions like enjoyment are likely to emerge. On
the other hand, negative emotions, such as anxiety, may be triggered if the situation is deemed
essential but uncontrollable, as in the case of a significant test. Consequently, the same situation
can evoke different emotions in different students, influenced by the outcome of their
evaluations tied to past experiences, beliefs, interests, and more (Hoffman et al., 2019).
21
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
and passion. In addition, the study revealed that passion and emotional responses to failure are
positively correlated, which is a valuable finding.
Feelings about success, called achievement emotions, have yet to be studied much in the
field of learning psychology. Most of the time, people only focus on test anxiety. But, according
to Turnquest et al. (2023), other emotions, like joy and general worry, also play a significant role
in how well students do. For instance, when students feel happy while learning, they’re more
likely to use suitable study methods and work harder. This can lead to better results in school.
The study, conducted by Earl et al. (2024), used a tool called the Achievement Emotions
Questionnaire to measure how students feel about their studies. This includes positive feelings
like enjoyment, hope, and pride, as well as negative emotions such as anger, anxiety, shame,
hopelessness, and boredom. Subsequently, Frumos et al., (2024) found that the feelings we
experience when we achieve something play a significant role in controlling our learning, drive,
and success in school. These emotions also impact our mental health, our ability to solve
problems, and our determination to keep learning, and give us the boost we need to take action
in the future. Not to mention, in educational settings, students encounter a range of emotions in
different situations related to achievement, such as learning, homework, class participation, and
exams. These emotions, as outlined in this taxonomy, play a crucial role in determining the
cognitive resources required to concentrate on achievement-related tasks and the motivation to
successfully complete them (Ghaderi et al., 2022).
Aside from success and failures, achievement emotions are closely linked to involvement
in work, sports, and academics (Pekrun et al., 2021). Achievement emotions are significant not
just as a result of achievement activities but also for their pivotal role in subsequent learning
processes (Wu & Yu, 2022). Several studies have acknowledged and illustrated the impact of
achievement emotions on educational outcomes across levels, including primary, secondary, and
tertiary education. One study suggests that adolescents’ achievement emotions significantly
22
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
influence their learning and performance in traditional subjects such as literacy, math, and
sciences (Luo et al.; Muis et al.; Pekrun et al., 2021). Other recent studies reveal that achievement
emotions are crucial factors associated with students' proficiency in 21st-century skills such as
communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity, particularly within the domain of
collaborative problem-solving (Camacho-Morles et al., 2019). Similarly, Behrens et al. (2019)
discovered that when students excel in high-complexity simulations, it enhances positive
academic emotions such as enjoyment and pride, while mitigating negative academic emotions
like anxiety. Positive emotions such as pride and joy are perceived as motivating factors for
learning. Similarly, moderate levels of anxiety can be beneficial as they indicate to students the
need for better preparation to tackle challenging issues. Conversely, shame, which was reported
at a low level, is seen as detrimental to learning as it lowers students' self-esteem. This
emphasizes the broader significance of achievement emotions beyond traditional academic
subjects, extending their relevance to essential skills required for success in the contemporary
learning environment.
23
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
contributed to the slight variations in effect sizes observed among the groups cannot be entirely
dismissed. Nevertheless, in terms of statistical significance, both groups yielded highly
comparable outcomes during cross-validation. This indicates that the correlations between goal
failure, achievement emotions, and goal revision remained significant despite an experimental
intervention impacting goal achievement. Moreover, Balaz et al (2021), highlighted the
importance of positive accomplishment emotions in educational settings by demonstrating their
significant impact on academic achievements. Favorable achievement emotions have been
shown to have favorable benefits on academic performance by studying the association between
emotional experiences and performance. It has been discovered that positive emotions like
pride, happiness, and hope favorably impact pupils' academic progress. The importance of
creating a positive and encouraging emotional climate in learning environments is highlighted by
these studies. In line with this, achievement self-esteem, synonymous with performance-based
self-esteem, involves deriving one's sense of self-worth and value solely from their
accomplishments (Moses, 2019). Teachers may be able to improve their students' motivation,
engagement, and general academic accomplishment by encouraging positive achievement
emotions. This realization emphasizes how crucial it is to take emotional aspects into account
while creating support networks and educational initiatives that work.

long haul would show a bigger lessening in happiness and a bigger expansion out of frustration
particularly when they lose apparent control (Forsblom et al., 2021). Ruiz and Robazza (2020)
indicate that emotion regulation is crucial to successfully dealing with stressful situations,
attaining good performance, and maintaining or improving physical and psychological health.
Similarly, the reports for young athletes are about favorable levels of outcome variables (i.e.,
higher pleasant emotions, enjoyment, confidence, satisfaction, social connection, and lower
unpleasant emotions and emotional loneliness) were related to more noteworthy utilization of
mental reappraisal and less utilization of expressive concealment (Kim & Tamminen, 2023).
Academic Resilience
Resilience is a rapidly expanding field in psychology research (Rudd, Meissel, & Meyer,
2021). It refers to a person's ability to adapt constructively to challenges in life. Resilient
individuals were once regarded to be "invulnerable" to hardships, but our understanding has
changed over time. Resilience is now seen as a dynamic engagement process where people adapt
to their surroundings. These changes have introduced additional aspects for consideration in
resilience research; as a result, the notion of resilience has also been applied to education. Not
to mention, although its definition may vary, resilience has been linked to the overall health, well-
being, and employability of students. It is often depicted as either a process or a result related to
successful adaptation. Various interventions and recommendations have been proposed, but
methodological limitations in empirical studies have hindered the ability to determine the most
effective ways to bolster resilience among university students. Establishing a common
understanding of resilience in the higher education context and conducting high-quality research
on resilience interventions would greatly enhance the higher education agenda. (Brewer et al,
2019).
Academic resilience, as defined by Romano et al. (2021), refers to the ability to effectively
foresee and adjust to challenging situations in an academic setting. It is also the ability to succeed

The idea of academic resilience emphasizes its significance in achieving academic success
in the face of adversity. Because it allows people to flourish despite adversity, resilience is viewed
as a critical component in advancing equity within the educational system. However, the
paragraph draws attention to a gap in the literature: the inconsistent operationalization of
academic resilience in quantitative studies. It is challenging to compare results across contexts
due to the variety of assessment techniques, which also restricts our comprehension of the
potential reasons for variations in academic resilience rates (Rudd, Meissel, & Meyer, 2022). This
was also discussed by Ahmed (2023), in his text, he defined academic resilience as students'
ability to overcome pressure, anxiety, and setbacks in learning environments. As it emphasizes
the importance of academic resilience in the face of the various hurdles students face while
pursuing their academic goals, he provides a brief overview of scientific epistemological
viewpoints, which are opinions concerning people's attitudes towards science, its methods, and
the processes by which knowledge is acquired.

drive for achievement, better academic achievement, a lower chance of thinking about quitting,
and a general sense of life satisfaction. Academic resilience is demonstrated by a student's
capability to persevere and flourish in the face of academic difficulties, significantly enhancing
their general academic performance and well-being. Besides, academic resilience is a component
of psychological capital (PsyCap) associated with adaptation, representing a positive
psychological development where a student's cognitive functioning and growth remain
unaffected by stressful events and conditions on their academic journey (Zheng et al., 2020). This
resilience not only shows how strong students’ minds are, but it also has a significant impact on
how they learn. A study by Gartland et al. (2019) states that resilient students are those who not
only overcome major educational challenges but also actively participate at every level,
demonstrating their resilience even in the face of academic pressure.
Cassidy (2022) notes that the majority of AR definitions highlight resourceful, innovative,
and adaptable responses to challenges or threats as essential components. Consequently, AR
stands as a crucial asset for achieving academic excellence, embodying a desirable and
advantageous quality in students. This quality is likely to impact various academic-related
outcomes, including performance, achievement, well-being, and overall quality of life. The
acquisition of academic resilience is a process that unfolds gradually through contextual
experiences in a student's life, as mentioned by Edward and Warelow (2022). It evolves through
a set of capabilities cultivated by keen observation and correction of maladjustment tendencies
linked to challenging events. Students can develop these capabilities in anticipation of
unexpected academic challenges, fostering proactive resilience that prepares them for potential
stressors. This approach enables an understanding of emerging situations that cannot be entirely
avoided but for which students can prepare proactively. Simultaneously, students can respond
swiftly and appropriately to safeguard themselves from challenges as they arise, constituting
reactive resilience. Crucially, a student's capacity for academic resilience is shaped not only by
internal factors, such as personality variables and intelligence but also by the resources available
27
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
from their relationships with family, the educational institution, and the broader environment.
In other words, the integration of both internal and external influences underscores the
multidimensional nature of resilience. Educators should take note of this shift as it moves away
from attributing resilience solely to students and acknowledges its contextual nature. Resilience
is shaped by internal protective factors and the availability of external support systems within
and beyond the university setting (Ryan et al., 2019).

academic performance outcomes and is crucial for directing goal-oriented behaviors necessary
for successful academic performance. It fosters high performance and academic self-efficacy,
impacting outcomes like course grades and GPA. Additionally, self-regulatory behavior engages
students in critical thinking and problem-solving (Tope-Banjoko et al., 2020). In addition, Uygur
and Asici (2023) stated that emotional self-efficacy was the second most important component
in predicting academic resilience. This result confirms the relationship between social-emotional
abilities and resilience, which is consistent with earlier research by Naglieri. It also confirms
research by Armum and Chellappan, from this study that shows a favorable relationship between
academic success and emotional self-efficacy. According to the study, teenagers who have faith
in their capacity to control and regulate their emotions are more likely to show resilience in the
face of difficulties in the classroom.

Research indicates that while the problem‐focused and emotion‐focused categories are
helpful, another coping approach called meaning‐focused coping has been recognized. This type
involves using cognitive strategies to handle the meaning of a situation. Essentially, meaning‐
focused coping aims to regulate positive emotions. There's substantial evidence indicating that
positive emotions coexist with negative ones during highly stressful periods and are crucial for
adaptation. As a result, it's important to consider positive emotions to better understand how
people generate and maintain them. Exploring the role of positive emotions in adaptation
concerning outcomes is essential for a more comprehensive understanding of coping strategies.
Based on the distinct coping categories, researchers suggest specific ideas about how
coping strategies relate to resilience. Firstly, they hypothesize that students exhibiting active
coping and employing problem-solving approaches demonstrate higher levels of resilience.
Secondly, they propose that students using emotion-focused strategies, which focus on
managing distress and negative emotions, might lessen their efforts in addressing the problem,
leading to lower resilience. Lastly, they posit that students regulating positive emotions by

assigning meaning to situations expands their range of thoughts and actions, building resources
like resilience. This, in turn, empowers them to effectively handle and manage various situations.
Life Success
Life satisfaction involves an individual's overall judgments and evaluations of their life,
which are subjective and reliant on comparing their situation to what they deem an appropriate
standard. This standard can include personal criteria for a good life or broader, widely valued
judgments. People may adopt diverse standards for success across different facets of their lives.
Therefore, it is emphasized that assessing an individual's general judgments about life is more
crucial than focusing solely on their satisfaction in specific living spaces (Pavot & Diener, 1993; as
cited in Ayhan & Özel, 2020). In the context of life satisfaction, individuals gauge their
32
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
contentment or happiness by evaluating how their expectations align with their actual
circumstances. This process forms a critical part of their positive assessment of overall life based
on personal criteria. Moreover, life satisfaction encompasses an individual's beliefs and
evaluations about life, reflecting a general attitude toward life. To put it simply, it involves
assessing the quality of one's life according to established standards, representing the extent of
positive development across all aspects of life quality (Ayhan & Özel, 2020) including life success.
The study conducted by Supervía et al. (2020) reveals a moderate correlation between optimism
and life satisfaction, supported by mediation analyses, indicating that optimism contributes to
enhancing overall life satisfaction in adolescents. This positive relationship aligns with arguments
proposing that specific adaptive behaviors, such as social adaptability, a positive outlook,
increased resilience, subjective happiness, self-esteem, and self-concept, connect optimism and
life satisfaction to other self-determined variables. Moreover, various studies emphasize the
correlation between optimism and life satisfaction with improved school performance and
reduced rates of school dropout, highlighting the significance of these adaptive behaviors. In
addition, the findings demonstrate a positive connection between task-oriented goals, optimism,
and life satisfaction in adolescents. The task-oriented goal concurrently acts as a mediating factor
between optimism and life satisfaction, underscoring its influence on both constructs.
Engaging in physical activity and sports can have a positive impact on one’s self-esteem,
which is closely related to psychological and social well-being. Well-being, in turn, has favorable
effects on health, social relationships, and productivity. In addition, one’s overall life satisfaction
is positively correlated with mental health. Besides, well-being encompasses both cognitive and
affective assessments of one's present life or long-term. This includes cognitive evaluations of
life satisfaction and affective assessments of moods and emotions. Well-being involves frequent
positive effects, such as happiness, the prevalence of positive mood, and low levels of negative
affect satisfaction with crucial life spheres, like work, health, family life, and many more. Overall
life satisfaction is linked with satisfaction regarding health status and family status. These findings
33
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
provide a basis for anticipating correlations between overall life success in specific life domains
for both athletes and non-athletes. Besides, individuals pursue life satisfaction through a wide
range of activities, including sports. Participating in sports has a tremendous impact on mental
and physical satisfaction, allowing for overall development, developing personality, encouraging
healthy lifestyle choices, cultivating perseverance, and imparting respect for others. While sports
have a significant societal impact, the consequences on people can differ by their chosen
discipline. Some athletes see sport as the meaning of their lives, hence their satisfaction with life
is determined by the advancement of their own careers (İnan & Koç, 2021).
Success is a multifaceted, intricate social reality phenomenon that lends itself to a variety
of contradicting interpretations. It refers to achieving objectives that are socially and personally
acceptable and have a significant impact on how people function in a given society
(Mukharlyamov, Zharkynbekova, Zadanova, & Shayakhmetova, 2022). Establishing your personal
definition of success is essential for establishing priorities and goals in life. Understanding what
success means helps you to avoid being distracted by unimportant things or the expectations of
others, and to concentrate your time and attention on the things that really matter. Furthermore,
defining success can make you feel happier and more content with your life. You can take action
to accomplish your objectives and lead a life that is consistent with your beliefs and passions
when you have a clear understanding of what success means to you (Jackson, 2023). The pursuit
of success in life is a steady, protracted endeavor that depends on an individual’s drive for growth
and development (Stroyanovska, 2021). This process results in the accomplishment of desired
goals in a person’s life in a variety of areas and is accompanied by a certain amount of energy
and a positive emotional state. It also enhances the general well-being of society. Weatherton
and Schussler (2022) suggest that the way success is gauged, policy is shaped, and student
performance is assessed in academia can vary. If success is viewed purely from an academic lens,
measures like GPA and standardized test scores might be used to evaluate student achievement.
34
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
The definition of success can have broader societal implications too. It can influence which
students continue in higher education and who will make up the future workforce of the nation.
Athletes are driven to acquire and improve superior talents that are necessary for success.
For example, there are a variety of reasons why an athlete may experience a decline in motivation
and anxiety, such as when they are competing against an older, more experienced competitor or
when they lack complete confidence in their ability to succeed. Keeping a healthy motivation
level is essential to finishing tasks and producing a good outcome (Jain, 2021). A study conducted
by Fadoju et al. (2021) likewise found that motivation and leadership behavior continue to be
seen as critical components in player success, career growth, and long-term achievement. Their
impact on success makes them significant and warrants research over generations to establish
whether their importance remains constant, differs based on the factor, or brings new
implications as the world of sports evolves. Furthermore, Yunissov et al. (2023) found that the
economic culture of the region in which Gen Z individuals live can influence their perceptions of
success and moral values. This can lead to different understandings of what success means and
can guide their actions towards achieving it. In today’s market, not adhering to moral standards
can lead to economic disadvantages. This relationship between moral values and perceptions of
success is shaping the behavior of modern youth.
Firdous and Riaz (2023) further elaborate that intrinsic goals, which are inherently tied to
personal growth and self-fulfillment, have a positive impact on an individual’s well-being and
functioning. Conversely, extrinsic goals, which are more about external rewards and recognition,
don’t always have the same positive effect. Interestingly, intrinsic goals have a strong positive
connection to critical thinking skills. While extrinsic goals might not always contribute to well-
being, they do have a positive link to achievement. In certain cultures, particularly those that are
developing or collectivist, extrinsic goals might not necessarily hinder a student’s educational
success. Apart from that, sports are also linked to a variety of other ideas. Children and
35
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
adolescents are generally drawn to sports for intrinsic reasons. Sports are believed to improve
strength and power, which is why many people become involved. Sports have a favorable impact
on both the mind and the body. As a result, adopting a favorable attitude toward sports from an
early age is critical for guiding young people away from harmful behaviors and maintaining their
social, physical, and mental well-being. Evaluating the influence of sports, which benefit
individuals in a variety of ways, on life satisfaction might serve as an extra motivator for people
to participate in sports. (Çeviker et al., 2023).
The retirement experience of athletes can be influenced by several factors that affect
their decision or necessity to retire. During this period of transition, most retired collegiate
athletes reported receiving support from their friends, teammates, family, coaches, and/or their
school. However, a small percentage did not receive any assistance. This research highlights the
need for collegiate athletes to receive more support during their retirement transition in order
to feel adequately prepared for their next stage of life. In addition, one thing in common with
those who said their transition to retirement went well was that they achieved their sporting
objectives (Barzca-Renner, Shipherd, & Basevitch, 2020).
36
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
way, they felt it vital to push ahead in their lives at a similar speed with others in their groups of
friends to get appreciation from their companions, family, and society. Second, the understudies
saw a paid occupation as an essential method for satisfying their obligations as tax paying
residents (Ågren et al., 2020). Afifah et al. (2021) then stated that achievement is deemed as the
ultimate objective in one’s existence, with a set criterion acting as a yardstick for comparison.
However, the measure of accomplishment varies from individual to individual, reflecting the
unique perspectives of life.
Najman et al. (2022) provide a concise summary of the consistent research showing that
childhood maltreatment has a detrimental influence on adult life success, whether the abuse is
reported by the victim or an agency. It emphasizes how people who endure any kind of abuse as
children are more likely to show signs of diminished knowledge and abilities, weakened social
bonds, and decreased well-being and happiness as adults. Furthermore, the idea of life success
is introduced in the paragraph as a normative model of self-realization, entailing the modification
of socially significant norms and values to suit personal aspirations in particular social
circumstances. It draws attention to research showing that material well-being and familial
happiness are important factors in determining a person's success in life for those living in the
Russian province. This shows that obtaining a certain degree of economic wealth and establishing
happiness in family connections are crucial to this population's definition of success. The passage
sheds light on how cultural and contextual elements, particularly in the context of rural Russia,
influence people's conceptions and goals of success in life (Reutov et al. 2020).
In addition, Romine (2020) emphasizes how important it is for student athletes' support
services to play a vital role in helping athletes succeed in life within college athletic departments
around the country. It highlights that to promote student athletes' success as both athletes and
students, Division-I colleges are required by the NCAA to offer academic advising, mentoring,
tutoring, and life skills programs. The quantitative study is to explore administrators, mentors,

Athletic identity shapes individuals' behaviors and beliefs throughout their sports journey,
extending even beyond their athletic career (Hogg, 2020). Brewer and Houle stated that athletic
identity begins as individuals develop a sense of self in adolescence and adulthood upon entering
the world of athletics. This identity strengthens with increased participation in sports, sometimes
becoming dominant over other roles (Adler & Adler, 2020). Benson et al. discovered that college
athletes express stronger attachment to their athletic identity when considering the end of their
sports career compared to the end of their student life, echoing terror management theory.
According to this theory, the conflict between self-awareness and mortality leads individuals to
embrace cultural beliefs to manage fear. Therefore, ending an athletic career, which may signify
a failure to achieve professional success, poses a greater threat than concluding a student career,
which fulfills the goal of graduation as stated by Benson et al. (2020).
Moreover, high levels of athletic identity correlate with greater self-belief in career
decision-making, optimism about the future, and career planning (Cabrita et al.; Lally & Kerr,
2020). This implies that maintaining an athletic identity during the career planning process might
not hinder athletes' success after sports; in fact, it could even enhance it. Although existing
studies have explored how athletic identity affects the transition from sports to professional life,
limited research has investigated its relationship with career success for retired college athletes
entering the workforce.

Synthesis
The studies and literature discussed here, which unify the concepts of athletic identity
(AI), achievement emotions (AE), academic resilience (AR), and life success (LS), reveal a
composite understanding of human development and well-being across various domains.
Athletic Identity
Athletic identity, deeply ingrained in individuals' self-perception, influences motivation,
career planning, and emotional responses to success and failure in sports. However, an excessive
emphasis on athletic identity can lead to challenges in other areas of life, such as academic
pursuits and post-sports transitions. Practitioners should aim to support the holistic development
of individuals by promoting non-athlete aspects of identity and removing institutional barriers to
growth.
Achievement Emotion
Achievement emotions play a crucial role in learning, performance, and success in both
academic and athletic contexts. Positive emotions like pride and enjoyment motivate learning,
while moderate anxiety can prompt better preparation. Effective emotion regulation is essential
for managing stress, achieving good performance, and maintaining overall well-being.
Academic Resilience
Academic resilience is vital for adapting constructively to challenges in academic settings.
It involves self-regulation, emotional self-efficacy, and coping strategies, contributing to positive
outcomes such as increased drive for achievement and life satisfaction. Fostering resilience
among students requires both internal factors and external support systems, highlighting the
importance of a comprehensive approach to education.
39
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
Life Success
Life success encompasses various aspects, including life satisfaction, well-being, and
achieving socially and personally acceptable objectives. Factors such as optimism, intrinsic goals,
and physical activity positively influence life satisfaction. Understanding the complicated nature
of life success requires considering individual perspectives, cultural influences, and the
reciprocity of various factors such as personal goals and societal expectations.

METHODOLOGY
This chapter discusses the methodologies that will be used to gather the data and analysis
that are relevant to the research. The methodologies will include areas such as research design,
instrumentation, research locale, sampling technique, data gathering procedure, ethical
considerations, and statistical treatment of data.
Research Design
This study utilized a differential research design. According to Gravetter and Forzano
(2019), a research study which compares existing groups is termed as a differential research
design, aiming to discern disparities among these groups. Such studies are commonly referred to
as ex post facto research as they examine differences that already exist between groups. Since
differential research design does not endeavor to mitigate the influence of individual differences
among groups, it falls under the category of nonexperimental research design.

Instrumentation
Athletic Identity Measurement Scale (AIMS)
The Athletic Identity Measurement Scale (AIMS; Brewer, Van Raalte, & Linder, 1993)
assesses athletic identity, which reflects the extent to which a person identifies with the role of
an athlete. This scale comprises 10 items rated on Likert-type scales ranging from 1 to 7. In the
initial validation study of the AIMS, it showed strong test-retest reliability and internal
consistency. Additionally, the study revealed that AIMS scores could predict psychological
distress following injuries among athletes. (PsycTests Database Record, 2022 APA). Using the 7-
item composite score from the AIMS is suitable for evaluating athletic identity in both males and
females. Each of the seven items is rated on a Likert scale from 1 (Strongly Disagree) to 7 (Strongly
Agree). To calculate the total score, sum all item responses, with possible scores ranging from 7
(minimum) to 49 (maximum). A low score (7-21) indicates a weak athletic identity, meaning that
the individual does not strongly associate with being an athlete. A moderate score (22-35)
suggests that being an athlete is part of their identity but not dominant. A high score (36-49)
suggests a strong athletic identity, where the individual considers being an athlete to their self
concept. Higher scores indicate greater athletic identity while lower score suggests a self-concept
that includes other identities beyond being an athlete.
42

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
The AEQ-R utilizes a 5-point Likert scale, where 1 corresponds to 'strongly disagree' and
5 to 'strongly agree.' The three blocks of the AEQ-R come with specific instructions: Block A refers
to emotions experienced before starting to work. It asks participants to recall typical situations
of attending class, studying, or taking a test and indicate how they typically feel before these
activities; Block B pertains to feelings experienced during work. Participants are asked to indicate
how they typically feel during class, studying, or taking a test; Block C refers to feelings
experienced after work. Participants are asked to indicate how they typically feel after class,
studying, or taking a test. The AEQ-R can be adapted to assess emotions in various domains such
as education, work, and sports. The standard instructions apply to educational contexts. For
other contexts, the instructions can be modified to fit the specific achievement setting. Certain
items in the instrument that refer to emotions "in this course" can be omitted or replaced with
alternative terms when the scales are used to assess achievement emotions in other domains.
43

revisions were needed. To assess discriminant validity, an alternative vignette was used where
participants rated how they thought a student represented in the vignette should respond to
adversity. The overall score is determined by summing all the ratings and finding the mean value.
A pilot test of the scale was conducted with a sample of 321 undergraduate students from
a British university, consisting of 56 male and 264 female participants, with a mean age of 22.4
(SD = 6.4). An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) revealed that the ARS items were most
appropriately categorized into three factors: Perseverance (14 items), Reflection and adaptive
help-seeking (9 items), and Negative affect and emotional response (7 items).
The scoring for Academic Resilience (ARS-30) is as follows: First, reverse-score the
following items: 2, 4, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 29, 30. For example,
a score of 5 becomes 1, 2 becomes 4, and so on. Second, calculate the total score by summing
the scores for all 30 items after completing the reverse-scoring. Finally, calculate factor scores by
summing item scores according to the following factors: Factor 1 (Perseverance): 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8,
9, 10, 11, 13, 15, 16, 17, 30. Factor 2 (Reflecting and adaptive help-seeking): 18, 20, 21, 22, 24,
25, 26, 27, 29. Factor 3 (Negative affect and emotional response): 6, 7, 12, 14, 19, 23, 28. Ensure
that the reverse-scoring is completed before calculating the factor scores.
44
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
In scoring the Life Orientation Test - Revised (LOT-R), items 3, 7, and 9 are reverse-scored
or scored separately to measure pessimism. Items 2, 5, 6, and 8 are considered fillers and are not
included in the scoring. The scoring is continuous, without a specific threshold for defining
someone as an optimist or pessimist.
Research Locale
The research study took place in the Philippines, with a focus on three specific cities:
Manila, Quezon City, and Mandaluyong City. Participants enlisted in the survey were requested
to furnish their responses within the confines of university campuses and barangay communities
situated in the aforementioned cities. The selection of these particular locations was based on a
careful consideration of various factors, such as accessibility, diversity of respondents, and
availability of resources and respondents. The study intended to gather reliable and insightful
data, with the aim of contributing to a more thorough understanding of the issues under
investigation.
Sampling Technique
The study used a statistical method called proportionate stratified sampling. It involves
dividing the population into distinct subgroups or strata, and then selecting participants
randomly from each stratum in such a way that the proportions within the sample match those
found in the population (Gravetter & Forzano, 2019). It divides the population into smaller
groups, or strata, based on characteristics like age, geographic location, or occupation. In this
study, the population comprises athletes and non-athletes. To ensure that the sample represents
the entire population, the researchers categorized them into strata based on relevant criteria like
schools, sports clubs, or geographical regions. This approach can help ensure that each selected
stratum contains a mix of athletes and non-athletes. By randomly selecting entire strata for
45
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY

analysis, the study can reduce the potential for selection bias and increase the accuracy of the
estimates obtained.
Ethical Considerations
A number of ethical factors will be taken into account when comparing non-athlete and
athlete students in studies on the development of athletic identity, achievement emotion,
academic resilience, and life success:
Voluntary Participation. Participants must be made aware that they have the absolute
right to decline participation in the study without encountering any fear of repercussions or
retaliation. They should understand that their decision to refuse participation will not result in
46
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
Informed Consent. This will guarantee that all participants—student-athletes and sports
enthusiasts alike—understand the explicit explanation of the goals, methods, possible dangers,
and advantages of the research. In addition, it enables the participant to decide with knowledge
whether or not to participate in the study.
Privacy and Confidentiality. This ensures that the responses and the participant’s
personal data are kept confidential. This will observe the participant’s right to privacy and refrain
from using or disclosing their personal data without authorization. This will make sure that the
data handling and storage practices adhere to the applicable privacy laws.
No Harm. No harm will be done as the researchers will take precautions to reduce the
possibility of the participants being subjected to bodily, psychological, or emotional harm. This
involves making sure that the participants in the study do not have excessive stress or pressure,
and that the survey questions are not bothersome or invasive.
The researchers will carry out this study with honesty, respect for participants’ rights, and
a dedication to advancing everyone’s well-being by taking these ethical considerations into
account.

PRESENTATION, INTERPRETATION, AND ANALYSIS OF DATA
In this chapter, the researcher presented the results, the analysis and interpretation of
the data gathered from the answers provided of Student Athletes and Sport Enthusiasts. The
analysis explored the difference between the achievement emotion, academic resilience, and life
success of athletes and sports enthusiasts by using Multivariate Analysis of Variance (MANOVA)
and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The gathered data were interpreted and supported by related
literature and studies. The said data are presented in tabular form in accordance with specific
questions posted in the statement of the problem.
The following Table is used to present and discuss the data that has been collected to
and treated to answer the statement of the problem of the study.

In contrast, sports enthusiasts show a more balanced distribution across the age groups.
52.60% of this group are within the 21 to 23 age range, making it the largest age group among
enthusiasts. However, there is a notable representation of younger and older individuals within
this category as well, with 20.23% in the 18 to 20 age range and an equal 20.23%in the 24 to 25
age range. This spread suggests that sports enthusiasts are present across a broader age range
than the athletes, who are more concentrated within a narrower, younger age band.

has the same age guidelines, the athletic association allows an athlete to compete if they are 18
years old to 25 years old (Carandang, 2024). While, there are many age bracket in local
community league, the researcher opted to measure the same age bracket as the athlete to
ensure accurate differentiation of measured qualities.

enthusiasts. Among athletes, the majority are male, with a total of 101 male respondents
compared to 73 female respondents. This suggests a male-dominant trend within the athlete
group in this study.
On the other hand, the sports enthusiast group has a more balanced distribution, though
males still slightly outnumber females. There are 88 male sports enthusiasts compared to 85
female sports enthusiasts. This closer proportion between male and female sports enthusiasts’
contrasts with the more pronounced male representation observed in the athlete group. Overall,
the data indicates a higher proportion of male participants in both groups, but the gender gap is
more prominent among athletes, where male respondents outnumber females by a notable
margin. In comparison, the sports enthusiast group reflects a more even distribution between
the sexes.
While studies about sex difference are limited, the data shows that collegiate sports and
local competitions are still dominated by male. The Philippine Sports Commission (2021) declared
that there are 1,422 national Athletes. In 2022, when Mandaluyong City initiated a city wide
league, they had 813 participants consisting of 339 basketball players, 262 men’s volleyball
players, and 212 women’s volleyball players across the 24 barangays in Mandaluyong City.

Table 3 presents the classification of sports among student athletes and sports
enthusiasts, showing the distribution of respondents by specific sports.
Among student athletes, Men’s Basketball has 28 participants, while Women’s Basketball
has a higher number with 41 participants. In volleyball, there’s a notable concentration in Men’s
Volleyball, with 73 participants, compared to 32 participants in Women’s Volleyball. In contrast,
among sports enthusiasts, the distribution varies. Men’s Basketball attracts 70 respondents,
making it the most popular sport in this group. Women’s Basketball follows, with 23 respondents

indicating interest. In volleyball, 60 sports enthusiasts participate, without a specified split by sex,
suggesting a broader appeal for volleyball among sports enthusiasts. Meanwhile, Men’s
Volleyball has a smaller following with 20 respondents.
The data shows that even though basketball is previously dominated by males, it shows
that sports had developed throughout by giving the same opportunity to females who grew up
loving basketball. The data also showed that most male respondents play volleyball, breaking
stereotypes in the sporting world (Kane, et.al., 2013; LaVoi, et.al., 2019).

Athletic Identity
55
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
The levels of athletic identity, achievement emotion, academic resilience, and life success
between student-athletes and sports enthusiasts were assessed and categorized into low,
moderate, and high ranges.
For athletic identity, a substantial majority of student-athletes (75.29%) fall within the
high range (67-90), reflecting a strong identification with their athletic role. In contrast, a slightly
lower percentage of sports enthusiasts (58.38%) fall within the high range, with a larger
proportion (27.75%) in the moderate range (43-66) compared to student-athletes (14.94%). This
suggests that while both groups show a relatively strong athletic identity, student-athletes are
more likely to have a higher level of athletic identity than sports enthusiasts.
The data shows that both athletes and sports enthusiasts have a sense of athletic identity,
however, the opportunity comes easier to the athletes because of the systematic training and
support system, Christino (2021) found out that players who dedicated themselves in their earlier
years developed stronger athletic identity. While the data shows a little difference between
athletes and sports enthusiast athletic identity, Newton et.al. (2020) stated that for some
athletes, athletic identity is crucial and a core personality.

Both Athletes and SE are moderate in Achievement Emotion, indicating that success and
failure moderately affects their mood, but according to Turnquest et al. (2023), other emotions,
like joy and general worry, also play a significant role in how well students do. For instance, if
athletes and enthusiasts feel that they are achieving full athletic potential, they will feel more joy
and sense of accomplishment and will perform better in the upcoming games. Additionally,
according to Behrens et al. (2019), students who perform well in challenging simulations
experience a reduction in negative academic feelings like fear and an increase in positive ones
like pride and satisfaction.
Table 6.

BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
Academic Resilience
For academic resilience, the data reveals a clear contrast between the two groups. While
most student-athletes (78.74%) are in the moderate range (25-48) for academic resilience, the
majority of sports enthusiasts (65.90%) are in the high range (49-72). This indicates that sports
enthusiasts report a higher level of resilience in academic settings compared to student-athletes,
potentially due to a stronger focus on academics without the balancing demands of athletic
commitments.
The levels of academic resilience of Athletes and sports enthusiasts differs from one
another significantly. Athletes have moderate academic resilience, while sports enthusiasts have
high academic resilience. Academic resilience was defined as the ability to effectively adjust to
challenging academic challenges. Athletes, due to time constraint and multiple commitments in
the same hour may result in moderate to high academic resilience. Bittman (2021) strengthened
the idea and stated that resilience has a close relationship with an increased drive for
achievement, better academic achievement, a lower chance of thinking about quitting, and a
general sense of life satisfaction.

Table 7.
Levels of Life Success of Athletes and Sports Enthusiast.
Life Success
Finally, in life success, 57.47% of student-athletes fall within the high range (49-72),
indicating a high perception of life success, although this figure is notably lower than that of
sports enthusiasts, where 93.06% report high life success. This suggests that sports enthusiasts
tend to perceive themselves as more successful in life compared to student-athletes, potentially
because they focus on a broader set of life goals beyond athletics.
Due to the sense of accomplishment and purpose that comes from playing sports,
athletes and sports fans frequently have high levels of life satisfaction. They feel more fulfilled as
a result of this engagement, which aids in their achievement of important milestones. According
to Jackson (2023), defining one's own definition of success is essential to coordinating one's
actions with one's interests and basic beliefs. Understanding one's own definition of success
enables people to set priorities wisely, reduce outside distractions, and concentrate on important
objectives, all of which contribute to greater happiness and well-being. They are better equipped
to pursue their goals in life with more tenacity and conviction because of this clear viewpoint.

The Pillai’s Trace indicates that a substantial proportion of the variance in the dependent
variables is explained by the athletic status. Results suggest that around 70% of the variance in
the combined variables can be attributed to differences in athletic status. This means that athletic
status plays a significant role in shaping how individuals score on athletic identity, achievement
emotion, academic resilience, and life success. suggest that athletic status significantly impacts
how individuals identify with athletics, their emotional experiences related to achievement, their
resilience in academic settings, and their overall sense of life success. For student-athletes, their

ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
heightened athletic identity and more intense achievement emotions might stem from their daily
involvement and investment in competitive sports, where their identity and success are closely
tied to athletic performance. In contrast, sports enthusiasts, who may engage in sports less
competitively, seem to experience greater academic resilience and a broader sense of life
success, possibly due to fewer competing demands between academics and athletics.

The significant multivariate effect is further supported by the ANOVA results in Table 3,
which provide a breakdown of the effects of athletic status on each dependent variable
individually. For athletic identity, the F-value of 32.018 (p < 0.001) confirms that student-athletes
have significantly higher athletic identity than sports enthusiasts. The ANOVA for achievement
emotion also reveals a significant difference between the two groups (F = 10.151, p < 0.001), with
student-athletes experiencing stronger achievement-related emotions. For academic resilience,
the results indicate a significant difference (F = 64.738, p = 0.002), with sports enthusiasts
demonstrating higher resilience compared to student-athletes. Lastly, life success shows the
most substantial difference (F = 424.217, p < 0.001), where sports enthusiasts report significantly
greater life success compared to student-athletes.
In summary, the results of the MANOVA and supporting ANOVAs reveal that there are
significant differences between student-athletes and sports enthusiasts across all four variables.
Athletic status has a profound effect on athletic identity, achievement emotion, academic
resilience, and life success, with student-athletes showing stronger athletic identity and
achievement emotion, while sports enthusiasts demonstrate higher academic resilience and life
success. These findings provide important insights into how athletic involvement shapes identity,
emotions, resilience, and perceptions of success in both athletes and non-athletes.
62
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
Sports fans, on the other hand, are typically less committed in athletic identity and do not
experience the same level of pressure to succeed in both areas, despite their continued passion
for sports. Sports enthusiasts, on the other hand, do not feel as much pressure to succeed in both
areas and are typically less committed in athletic identity, but still having a passion for sports.
They can concentrate on academic success without the competing pressures of high sports
aspirations, which may strengthen their academic resilience (Stambulova & Wylleman, 2019).
Additionally, sports enthusiasts may feel more acute achievement feelings in contexts of
academic or personal improvement, but student athletes—especially those with a strong athletic
identity—may feel more intense emotions associated to performance in sports (Schmidt et al.,
2019). In comparison to sports enthusiasts, student athletes' dual roles as athletes and students
can provide particular difficulties in establishing academic resilience and managing
accomplishment emotions.
Table 10.

With a standard error of 1.02 and 345 degrees of freedom, the post hoc comparison
between the Sports Enthusiast and Student Athlete groups reveals a statistically significant mean
difference of -5.78. This comparison's t-statistic, which is -5.66, is fairly significant and shows that
the mean difference is significantly outside the range of what would be predicted by chance

alone. This finding's importance is further supported by a p-value of <.001, which indicates that
the observed difference has a less than 0.1% chance of occurring by chance. This demonstrates
a significant disparity in the results between these two groups.
The Enthusiast group's mean score is lower than that of the Student Athlete group, as
indicated by the negative mean difference. This finding implies that Student Athletes perform
better than Enthusiasts in any metric or attribute that is being compared. This finding is very
credible because of the extremely low p-value, which indicates that Enthusiasts are likely to
regularly score lower on this measure than Student Athletes in the population. Understanding
group differences for focused interventions or additional study analysis may benefit from this
conclusion

The post hoc analysis shows a standard error (SE) of 5.52 and 345 degrees of freedom,
the post hoc comparison between the Enthusiast and Student Athlete groups shows a significant
mean difference of -17.6. When compared to its variability, the mean difference is significant, as
indicated by the comparison's t-statistic of -3.19. Because the p-value of 0.002 is less than the
traditional cutoff of 0.05, it signifies that the outcome is statistically significant. This implies that
64

it is improbable that the observed variation in the two groups' mean scores happened by
accident.
Table 12.

Comparison
The post hoc comparison between the Sports Enthusiast and Student Athlete groups
shows a significant mean difference of 15.9 in academic resilience, with a standard error (SE) of
1.97 and 345 degrees of freedom. The t-statistic of 8.05 indicates that the mean difference is
large relative to the variability, suggesting that Student Athletes report significantly higher levels
of academic resilience compared to Enthusiasts. The p-value of <.001 confirms that this result is
65
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
highly significant, meaning there is less than a 0.1% chance that this difference occurred
randomly.
This positive mean difference implies that Student Athletes have a substantially greater
level of academic resilience compared to Sports Enthusiasts. The strong t-statistic and very low
p-value support the reliability of this result. These findings suggest that being a Student Athlete
may be associated with enhanced academic resilience, possibly due to experiences of balancing
both academic and athletic commitments, which could foster stronger coping mechanisms.
Understanding these differences can be useful for educational institutions aiming to promote
resilience-building programs tailored to diverse student groups.

The post hoc comparison between the Sports Enthusiast and Student Athlete groups
reveals a significant mean difference of 14.7 in life success, with a standard error (SE) of 0.712
and 345 degrees of freedom. The t-statistic of 20.6 indicates an exceptionally strong difference,
suggesting that the mean life success score for Student Athletes is substantially higher than that
for Sports Enthusiasts. The p-value of <.001 confirms the significance of this result, implying there
is an extremely low probability that this observed difference is due to chance.
66
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
This positive mean difference suggests that Student Athletes perceive or achieve
markedly greater levels of life success compared to Sports Enthusiasts. The high t-statistic and
very low p-value lend strong support to the reliability of this finding. This could indicate that the
dual pursuit of academics and athletics fosters skills, resilience, and attributes that contribute to
a greater sense of life success. Such insights are valuable for understanding the benefits of
balancing extracurricular activities with academic responsibilities and can inform strategies for
enhancing students' overall development and success.

SUMMARY, CONCLUSION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS
This chapter discusses the summary of the study, the summary of its findings, conclusion,
and recommendation.
Summary
Student-athletes and sports enthusiasts between the ages of 18 and 25 in Manila, Quezon
City, and Mandaluyong City are the subjects of this study, which compares their athletic
identities, achievement emotions, academic resilience, and life success. By examining these
crucial areas, the study seeks to comprehend how involvement in sports affects academic and
personal development, providing information that may promote academic and life success of
both groups. The study emphasizes how an individual's sports identity influences how they react
to difficulties and encourages actions that are consistent with their roles.
Additionally, life success is evaluated to identify the transferable qualities gained through
sports that benefit various life aspects. Despite limitations such as the specific geographic focus
and sample size, this research provides practical implications for coaches, educators, and
policymakers. The findings could guide the creation of programs and strategies that promote
balanced development, fostering resilience, emotional health, and sustained achievement
among young adults.

involvement, informed consent, privacy, and reducing potential harm are all ethical factors.
Participants will respond to four standardized questionnaires, and data will be analyzed with the
help of descriptive statistics and multivariate analysis (MANOVA). The Scheffe’s post hoc test will
identify significant group differences. Data processing will be done using Jamovi and Microsoft
Excel, assisted by a professional statistician.
The majority of athletes are between the ages of 18 and 23, although sports fans are more
widely distributed, with a significant proportion in the 24–25 age range. There are more men
than women among players, yet there is a virtually equal distribution of men and women among
sports fans. Men's basketball is the sport in which enthusiasts are most interested, whereas
athletes are more involved in men's volleyball. In terms of athletic identity, athletes are more
likely to have a strong athletic identity than sports fans, who are more evenly distributed
throughout low, moderate, and high levels.
Achievement emotion scores show that athletes experience stronger emotions tied to
their achievements, while enthusiasts are more moderate in their emotional responses.
Academic resilience is notably higher among sports enthusiasts, suggesting they may be more
adaptable in academic settings. Conversely, athletes show a greater sense of athletic identity and
achievement emotion due to their competitive involvement. Life success scores indicate that
sports enthusiasts perceive themselves as more successful in life, likely due to fewer academic-
athletic balance challenges. Multivariate and ANOVA analyses confirm that athletic status
significantly influences all assessed variables, with athletes displaying stronger athletic identity
and achievement emotions, while sports enthusiasts excel in academic resilience and life success.
Summary of Findings
The findings of the study are as follows:
1. The demographic Profile of the Respondents;
69
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
a. Both athletes and sports enthusiasts are mostly between the ages of 21 to 23
years old.
b. Both 101 athletes and 88 sports enthusiasts are Male, while 73 athletes and 85
sports enthusiasts are female.
c. 41 athletes play women’s Basketball, and 28 play Men’s Basketball. While there
are 32 respondents who play Women’s Volleyball, and 73 respondents who play
Men’s Volleyball. Additionally, there are 23 sports enthusiasts that play Women’s
Basketball, and 70 sports enthusiasts play men’s basketball. There are 60 sports
enthusiasts who play women’s volleyball, and 20 enthusiasts who play men’s
volleyball.
2. The levels of Athletic Identity of Athletes are mostly high level with a percentage of 75.29,
and moderate level of 26 respondents (14.94%). While 101 sports enthusiast respondents
scored high, and 48 enthusiasts had moderate athletic identity.
a. 44 or 25.29% of athletes scored high with achievement emotion, while there are
21 or 12.14% sports enthusiasts who have high achievement emotion. 120
athletes have moderate achievement emotions, and 10 or 5.75 has scored low.
Additionally, 141 or 81.50% of sports enthusiasts have moderate achievement
emotion, and 6.36% or 11 has low.
b. Athletes showed moderate academic reliance (137 or 78.74%), while some scored
high academic resilience (20 or 11.49%). Sports Enthusiast shows more academic
resilience than athletes, 114 sports enthusiasts have high academic resilience, and
46 (26.59%) is moderate.
c. In Life success, it shows that 100 (57.47%) athletes scored high, while 67 (38.51%)
had moderate life success. While 161 (93.06%) sports enthusiasts also have high
life success, and 10 (5.78%) enthusiasts have moderate.

Conclusion
In conclusion, this study provides valuable insights into the distinct psychological and
academic profiles of student-athletes and sports enthusiasts. While both groups demonstrate
significant strengths, student-athletes exhibit a stronger athletic identity and more intense
achievement emotions, which are likely influenced by their competitive athletic involvement.
However, sports enthusiasts show higher levels of academic resilience and a greater sense of life
success, potentially due to fewer competing demands between academics and athletics. The
significant differences in athletic identity, achievement emotions, academic resilience, and life
success between the two groups highlight the diverse ways in which sports involvement impacts
personal growth and well-being. According to these results, young adults' resilience, mental well-
being, and life happiness can only be maximized by encouraging a balance between their athletic
and academic endeavors. In the end, the findings can guide the creation of focused interventions
and support plans for both student-athletes and sports fans, encouraging holistic growth and
sustained achievement and sports enthusiasts, promoting well-rounded development and long-
term success.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the findings of the study, the researchers would like to recommend the
following;
71
ARELLANO UNIVERSITY
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE IN PSYCHOLOGY
For Sports Enthusiast. Sports enthusiasts should be able to identify the transferable
skills—like self-control, cooperation, and resilience—that come from playing sports by using the
tools provided by educational and athletic institutions. Programs that emphasize these abilities
can support their academic achievement and personal growth while empowering students to
make well-informed choices regarding their educational and professional trajectories.
For Coaches and Trainers. Coaches should adopt holistic training approaches that
emphasize not only athletic performance but also emotional well-being and academic resilience.
To produce well-rounded athletes who can succeed on and off the field, training programs should
include conversations on mental health, achievement emotions, and striking a balance between
academics and athletics.
For Educational Institutions. Schools should consider incorporating findings from this
study into their curriculum and student support services. By tailoring educational programs to
the needs of both athletes and non-athletes, schools can foster an environment that supports
academic success, personal growth, and resilience, benefiting all students.
For Communities. Communities should develop more inclusive programs that encourage
participation in sports, not just for the development of athletes but also for the improvement of
social cohesion, life skills, and general well-being. Programs that highlight how sports may
improve resilience and mental health can help people grow as individuals and build better
community bonds.
For Future Researchers. This study serves as a foundation for future research into the
intersections between sports participation, identity development, emotional regulation, and
academic success. Future studies could expand to include diverse populations, other regions, or
longitudinal research to further explore the long-term impacts of sports involvement on life
72

success and personal development and could also provide a program wherein it will address the
findings of this study.
