■利用Ruthven\(2022)的过渡模型,我们探索了身份,自愿性,退休的原因与运动员退休期间的主观幸福感有关。
■541名参与者完成了匿名,在线调查,并估计他们的福祉从退休前开始,直到现在。一组线性混合模型对这三个指标的七个福祉结果进行了回归,通过教育,性别,和退休后的时间作为协变量。
■身份:运动身份幸福感显着并且始终低于多元化身份。自愿:意外退休要困难得多,并导致过渡当天的跌幅更大。退休原因:追求其他事情,正确的时间没有经历重大的幸福变化,而受伤在过渡日明显下降。动机丧失在退休前经历了显著较低的幸福感,和一个重要的,在过渡当天和整个过渡期间逐渐上升。
■多样化的身份有福利,自愿退休,因为追求别的东西而退休,或感觉准备退休。风险人群包括因受伤而退休,低动机,和资格/毕业的丧失。研究结果支持利用理论模型解释精英运动员结果的好处。
UNASSIGNED: Utilizing Ruthven\'s (2022) transition model, we explored how identity, voluntariness, and reason for retirement are related to subjective wellbeing throughout an athlete\'s retirement.
UNASSIGNED: 541 participants completed an anonymous, online survey and estimated their wellbeing starting before retirement and up to the present. A set of linear mixed models regressed the seven wellbeing outcomes on the three measures, with education, gender, and time since retirement as covariates.
UNASSIGNED: Identity: Athletic Identity wellbeing was significantly and consistently lower than Diversified Identity. Voluntariness: Surprise retirement was significantly more difficult and contributed to a sharper decline on the day of transition. Reason for retirement: Pursue Something Else and Right Time experienced no significant wellbeing changes, while Injury had a significant decline on their transition day. Motivation Loss experienced significantly lower wellbeing prior to retirement, and a significant, gradual rise on the day of and throughout their transition.
UNASSIGNED: There are wellbeing benefits for a diverse identity, voluntary retirement, and retiring due to pursuing something else, or feeling ready to retire. At risk groups include retiring due to injury, low motivation, and loss of eligibility/graduation. Findings support the benefit of utilizing a theoretical model to explain elite athlete outcomes.
