It is with great excitement that we share that Megan Drew's thesis project was selected
by the Society for Sport, Exercise & Performance Psychology, APA Division 47, Cornerstone
Committee for the 2021 Thesis Award! This award recognizes "outstanding student research
that has the greatest potential for making a significant contribution to the theoretical
and applied knowledge base in sport, exercise and performance psychology." Megan's
study, The Mental Health Screening of Student Athletes by NCAA Athletic Departments, explored NCAA athletic departments' mental health screening practices, assessing
such issues as the psychological concerns covered during screenings, personnel who
administer and review screeners, and resources available for athletes identified as
"at risk." This study has recently been submitted for publication and is under review.
