An organizational communication study of collegiate athletes concludes that social identity theory, time scarcity, and projected selves theory are correlated with psychological/physical health, as well as the ability to predict academic success.

Furthermore, findings provide a link between the projected future self, social identity and the present motivation to achieve academically. / text
