Which dual career experiences predict mental health in upper secondary sport high school in student-athletes? : A cross-sectional study (English)
Abstract [en]

Mental health is an important resource for a successful and developing athleticcareer (Schinke et al., 2018), which also results in better performance (Henriksen et al.,2019). Commitment to a dual career (DC) seems to be beneficial to the athlete inrelation to several aspects (Aquilina, 2013; Stambulova et al., 2015; Henriksen et al.,2020). A DC can also bring several challenges for a student-athlete (Brown et al., 2015;Stambulova et al., 2015; Linnér, Stambulova & Ziegert, 2021), which could contributeto mental illness instead (Stambulova et al., 2020). Therefore, the aim of this study wasto examine which DC-experiences predict mental health in student-athletes at uppersecondary school in sport. 405 student-athletes participated in this study, 141 women,259 men and 5 participants who identified themselves as neither male nor female. Allparticipants combined studies with sports and were between 15–19 years old (M=16.8;SD=3.3). Data was collected via web survey. Two multiple regressions analysis were conducted. The result of this study shows that DC-experiences such as DC-support, DC-obstacles, DC-competence, and DC-benefits predict mental health. In conclusion, student athletes who have more DC-support, DC-benefits, obtain DC-competencies and have fewer obstacles in their DC, maintain DC-balance and therefore seem to experience better mental health.

Abstract [sv]

Mental hälsa är en viktig resurs för en framgångsrik och utvecklande idrottskarriär (Schinke et al., 2018), vilket även genererar en bättre prestation (Henriksen et al., 2019). Satsning på en dubbel karriär (DK) verkar gynnsamt för idrottaren utifrån flera aspekter (Aquilina, 2013; Stambulova et al., 2015; Henriksen et al., 2020). En dubbel karriär kan även medföra flera utmaningar för en idrottselev (Brown et al., 2015; Stambulova et al.,2015; Linnér, Stambulova & Ziegert, 2021), vilket kan bidra till mental ohälsa (Stambulova et al., 2020). Därav syftar denna studie till att undersöka vilka DK-upplevelser som predicerar mental hälsa hos idrottselever på gymnasienivå. I studien deltog 405 idrottselever, varav 141 kvinnor, 259 män och 5 individer som identifieradesig som varken man eller kvinna. Samtliga deltagare kombinerade studier med idrottoch var mellan 15–19 år (M=16.8; SD=3.3). Datainsamlingen genomfördes via webbenkäter och därefter utfördes två multipla regressionsanalyser. Resultatet indikerarpå att DK-upplevelser såsom DK-stöd, DK-hinder, DK-kompetenser samt DK-fördelar predicerar mental hälsa. Sammanfattningsvis verkar idrottselever som upplever DK-stöd, DK-fördelar, besitter DK-kompetenser och upplever färre hinder i sin DK, kan upprätthålla DK-balans och därmed erfara en bättre mental hälsa.
