Athletic identity is a part of self-identity and can be defined as the level, to which one identifies with the role of an athlete. It is a self-concept that is constructed from information processed by the individual and influences both input and output of information related to the self. For athletes and people that are actively involved in sports, athletic identity is a major part of their self and they can satisfy the need of their athletic identity by taking part in sports. Athletic identity increases with the level of involvement in sports, and strong athletic identity correlates positively with athletic achievements, as well as with higher motivation and competitiveness. Changes, such as a decline, in athletic identity facilitate adjustment to everyday life.

  • Athletic identity is a part of self-identity and can be defined as the level, to which one identifies with the role of an athlete. It is a self-concept that is constructed from information processed by the individual and influences both input and output of information related to the self. For athletes and people that are actively involved in sports, athletic identity is a major part of their self and they can satisfy the need of their athletic identity by taking part in sports. Athletic identity increases with the level of involvement in sports, and strong athletic identity correlates positively with athletic achievements, as well as with higher motivation and competitiveness. Changes, such as a decline, in athletic identity facilitate adjustment to everyday life. Two theories of identity development that can provide a model for athletic identity are structural identity theory and cognitive identity theory. Structural identity theory examines the influences of external components such as society and groups within society (for example, family, friends, coaches, teachers, the media and sport) on the individual. Cognitive identity theory explores the impact of internal components on the individual such as evaluation and interpretation of the identities within the self. Both external and internal components play important roles in the socialization process that contribute to the formation, maintenance, and abandonment of identities such as athletic identity. (en)
