Mary Joan De Café – Eta, Edna T. Salva

Abstract


This mixed-methods study examined the relationship between received support, burnout, and mental energy among collegiate student-athletes in Region IX, Philippines, employing a convergent design. The quantitative phase involved a survey completed by college student-athletes, analyzing levels of received support, burnout, and mental energy through descriptive and inferential statistics. Qualitative data were collected through in-depth interviews and focus group discussions with selected participants, focusing on their experiences and perceptions of support and burnout. Quantitative results indicated that the status of received support of student-athletes was very high, which means that they always received strong support from coaches, occasionally encountering challenges that may affect their performance, burnout was moderate, described as sometimes experienced, and athletic mental energy was very high which means it was always demonstrated during sports performance. In addition, it was revealed that athlete support and burnout significantly influenced the mental energy of the student-athletes. Qualitative analysis revealed five essential emerging themes in the lived experiences of athletes as regards their mental energy in sports, namely: Building confidence in playing sports, Sustaining motivation to reach a goal, Staying in focus to maintain mental energy, Experiencing physical exhaustion affects mental energy, and Regulating emotions while playing. Meanwhile, four themes emerged regarding as the role of lived experiences in shaping the values, attitudes, and commitment to sports of college students, which are as follows: Believing in one’s abilities, Mirroring others' belief in one’s capabilities, Sustaining positive behavior, and Maintaining motivation for sports. Integration of the quantitative and qualitative findings revealed that the following were merging-converging: the received emotional support and the theme believing in one's abilities, informational support and sustaining motivation to reach a goal, reduced sense of accomplishment and regulating emotions while playing, the mental energy in terms of motivation and sustaining motivation to reach goal, concentration and staying in focus to maintain mental energy. Similarly, the experiences as points of shaping the belief, attitude and commitment with regards to the mental energy in terms of confidence and believing in one’s abilities, concentration sustaining favourable behaviour and maintaining motivation for sports, also converged. However, the quantitative and qualitative findings were merging and diverging regarding low physical and emotional exhaustion and experiencing physical exhaustion. It is shared by athletes that their training routines cause significant physical exhaustion.
