.Cleveland Clinics 
.Popular Source

Summary: This article is talking about how there is a stigma around mental health and athletes. It talks about how this stigma adds pressure on athletes and how much mental health affects them and adds more pressure around performance. It really hits hard on why it is so important to end this stigma so athletes can get the help they deserve without losing out on sports or the figure they seem to be. This article explains that mental physical health is just as important, if not more important than an athlete's physical health. It also gives tips for parents and information on how mental health struggles can appear physically. The article concludes that the only way to really end the stigma is by having open conversations around mental health and acknowledging that it is important. They also give example of a study that highlights how much of an impact mental health makes on athletes.

Evaluation: I believe this is a popular source because it is written for the general public with the aim to inform people with a basic knowledge just to push them to understand how important this topic is. In addition, it do not seem to have any studies conducted or a very high professional vocabulary, making it a scholarly article. Also, it does not seem to be trying to trade an item or knowledge for money or another type of benefit. It is just aim to create a change.

Reflection: I think I would use this source as a way to build on to my topics and prove that my main thoughts around my question “how can sports put added stress on athletes?”. I like that it has a quotes from Dr. Sacco and a link to his creditability. On top of that, I enjoy the strong claims he states which prove my claims and since he is a creditable source it just reinforces my basic argument.

Summary: This article gives a lot of basic information on how mental health affects people and then dives into a basic understanding of how mental health can harm athletes. Also, they talk about how being a student athlete and performing can and normally added more pressure on athletes which can negatively impact their mental health. The article gives a few statistics around mental health numbers and how much it affects the population. I love that it gives examples of athletes who have struggled and how it concludes with resources for families and athletes. Overall, I love how much date they use to prove their point that mental health in athletes really needs to be focused on. 

Evaluation: I believe this is a popular source because it is written for the general public with the aim to inform people with a basic knowledge just to push them to understand how important this topic is. In addition, it do not seem to have any studies conducted or a very high professional vocabulary, making it a scholarly article. Also, it does not seem to be trying to trade an item or knowledge for money or another type of benefit even though they do have a self-care plan available on their website.

Reflection: I think is source would be helpful to back up my main ideas of how important mental health in athletes should be taken with the stats it gives. Also, I think is explains pretty well how physical activity tends to help those suffering from mental health issues but how it can negatively impact athletes which was one of my questions.]]> 2023-03-13 15:26:08 UTC https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2514620861 whitesavannah101 https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2517996713 .“Mental Health Issues Remain On Minds Of Student-Athletes”

Summary: This article explains that NCAA conducted a study that surveyed student-athletes in college about how they felt around mental health and if they knew what to do. They had a lot of statistics from this 9,800 person study and these statistics are separated by gender. I like how it talks about how student-athletes felt about transferring, academic experience, equity, and the resources they had at hand. I think it is important to note that this Trudy was conducted during covid so the data might not be as accurate to how athletes are feeling now.

Evaluation: I believe this is a popular source because it is written for the general public with the aim to inform people with a basic knowledge just to push them to understand how important this topic is. In addition, it do not seem to have any studies conducted or a very high professional vocabulary, making it a scholarly article. Also, it does not seem to be trying to trade an item or knowledge for money or another type of benefit. It is just aim to educate people about this study and how much mental health can impact more than just an athlete’s performance.

Reflection: I think this article is amazing and would be very helpful in a research paper. Not only does this article come from NCAA themselves but their study was conducted by their student-athletes. I like that they give so much information about their study and give numbers to support and show the significance of the data. I believe it would be very helpful in supporting my claim and supports my question of “how sports can add added stress on athletes” by explaining what added stresses they are put through.]]> 2023-03-15 15:50:25 UTC https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2517996713 whitesavannah101 https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2517997602 .Fuling Han

Summary: The article is broken down into an introduction, method, discussion, conclusion, acknowledgments, and references. This article contains a lot of images and mathematical equations that I was surprised to see. I was expecting to see more statistical evidence for the study. The article analyzes the relationship between training stress and social support plays on elite athletes mental health. The method was using questionnaires to measure how athletes felt. In the introduction it talks about how they want to know the relationship between sports fatigue and mental health in elite athletes by paying close attention to several different aspects of these athletes like age or gender. I believe they are doing this to find what ways training stress can be cut back and not lead to such a negative impact on an athletes’ mental health and what things can be done to reduce the likelihood of a negative impact. They conclude that training programs should be adjusted to accommodate tracing fatigue so athletes can fully recover mentally and physically without adding more stress on themselves. They also add on some ideas of ways to help prevent fatigue by having athletes take measures such as learning coping skills and how to self-adjust their workouts.They do not ask any additional questions in their conclusion. I think more research could go into how much reformed training plans truly impact these athletes' mental health instead of just questionnaires.

Evaluation: This seems to be a scholarly article just by the fact that the writer seems to be a Professional talking about their fields, otherwise their resources are popular written for the general population but I think they are more likely to be scholarly articles. They seem to be more focused on their fields and I would guess that they go into a lot of scientific terms that would not be of a basic, populational understanding. There are six references listed.

Reflection: I think this article would fit under my “How can sports put added stress on athletes?” I think I could use the relationships found in the article to strengthen my claims around the impact sports can have on mental health for several reasons but there is not much statistical data for me to use and build off of.]]> 2023-03-15 15:51:00 UTC https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2517997602 whitesavannah101 https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2522524194 .“How Collaborative Mental Health Care For Competitive And High-Performance Athletes Is Implemented: A Novel Interdisciplinary Case Study”

.Scholarly Article

Summary: This article is talking about a case study that was done around collaboration and health care. In this case study, a teen girl who had a chronic illness was followed around for 11 months seeing how collaborative health could benefit her treatment. They concluded that it was very helpful and they believe it would be helpful for athletes to have a system like this for their mental health.

Evaluation: This seems to be a scholarly article just by the fact that the writer seems to be Professionals who are talking about their fields, otherwise their resources are popular written for the general population but I think they are more likely to be scholarly articles. They seem to be more focused on their fields and I would guess that they go into a lot of scientific terms that would not be of a basic, populational understanding. This article was also labeled as a scholarly article on the msu library page.

Reflection: I think this important would be more useful if they actually did a case study on an athlete who struggled with mental health. I do not think it would help my claims to use data that does not truly show a correction between mental health and athletes. I think this data would be helpful for getting coach’s and professional to start a conversation about theming collaborations when it comes to the health of their athletes but do not think it is enough evidence to create a change. I think I could use this information to explain how athletes can have added stress put on them and why having more support would help. I do not know if the whole study and analysis has information to explain what added stress athletes have put on them but I do believe it could help explain why it is important for athletes to get help. ]]> 2023-03-19 21:51:22 UTC https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2522524194 whitesavannah101 https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2528915864
.“Why Don’t More Olympians Talk About Mental Illness?”

.Trade Source

Summary: This article is talking about why athletes on the highest levels still feel like they need to hide their struggles around mental health from the public eye due to stigma. They talk about how impress it is that athletes are still able to compete at such a high level but yet still struggle. That this idea allows people to have hope and understand that mental health does not mean one is weak. I also liked how they talked about how many people truly are struggling just based on statistics but yet they have not opened up about it. I think it is really important to hear stories of these athletes to see that mental health issues do not have to define someone. I do hate that this stigma makes people think they can not open up about their struggles until after they accomplish their goals or until it is too late. 

Evaluation: This source is a trade source since it comes from the NAMI (National Alliance on Mental Health) which means it is more of an association for people who work in the mental health area. This information could also still be understood by the public but they do have more complex information on their cite which would be more geared for the professional eye. 

Reflection: I think this article would be helpful for answering my question on why the mental health stigma needs to end and proves the importances of getting help and speaking up right away. I really liked that the article used names for evidence and real world examples. In addition, I like how short but to the point the article was. ]]> 2023-03-23 14:08:38 UTC https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2528915864 whitesavannah101 https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2528922729 2023-03-23 14:12:46 UTC https://padlet.com/whitesavannah101/hgrt5cnndx1ykg8a/wish/2528922729
