Abstract
The present study explores the relationship of the abrupt termination of sports activities on sport confidence, sport competence, dispositional optimism, and psychological well-being of Division 3 athletes. Thirty-eight Division 3 student-athletes took part in this research study by taking a survey that included items from three separate measures: The Carolina Sport Confidence, The State Sport Confidence Inventory, and the Ryff Psychological Well-Being Scale. The results found statistically significant correlations between specific subscales of the measures, which have further implications for the student-athletes who participated in this study.
