Even though our main hypothesis of team-sport athletes having a higher athletic burnout score compared to individual-sport athletes was not supported, this could be considered a positive thing because we found no significant difference of burnout scores between team-sport athletes (mean=11.5) and individual-sport athletes (mean= 11.8). These mean scores are relatively low global ABQ scores. This is a positive piece of information to share with coaches and people in involved in athletics because the majority of athletes at MWSU are not experiencing a high rate of athletic burnout while playing here.
Our second hypothesis was that low self-motivated athletes will have a higher rate of athletic burnout. In our Pearson Product Correlation that
