Motivation of Student-AthletesToward Sports and Education
Student-athletes
• “… strongly motivated toward sport but are notinterested in academics”(Simons et al., 1999)
• Stereothypes > negative opinions regarding theiracademic capacities(Simons et al., 2007)
• Time devoted to training severely limits time andenergy dedicated to study and the fulfillment ofacademic requirements (Peltier et al., 1999)
Based on principles and assumptions ofexpectancy-value, self-efficacy and attribution theories

Main FindingsMain Findings
Italian and Slovenian student-athletes are highly motivated toward a dualcareer, independently from gender.
Italian and Slovenian student-athletes are determined to perform both inclassroom and on the field.
The higher academic motivation of Italian team sport athletes could beascribed to the Italian sport system, which strongly relies on militarysport organization supporting mainly athletes involved in individual sports.
Slovenian student-athletes showed a higher motivation towardprofessional sport, especially evident for athletes >24 yr involved inindividual sport.
