- Abstract
The article presents a study that conducted to test these competing hypotheses with respect to the levels of athletic identity among student-athletes at the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division III women's and coeducational colleges. Division III institutions were chosen because with respect to intercollegiate athletic affiliation, women's colleges are predominantly Division III members. Within the NCAA, Division I and Division II institutions are allowed to award financial aid and scholarships on the basis of athletic participation, whereas Division III institutions are not.
