Identify an athlete who is portrayed in the popular media


Occasionally, our glimpses into their personal lives or professional roles offer opportunities for us to observe psychological, emotional, or behavioral indicators suggestive of a mental illness.

For this assignment, complete the following tasks:

o Identify an athlete who is portrayed in the popular media (on a television series, news program, sporting event, or movie) and is someone you believe may be suffering from a psychological disorder.

You may have observed signs of a performance-altering condition or behavioral impairment.

o Next, describe the athlete you've selected. Use the intake assessment form attached and fill the form as if you were interviewing the athlete.

Include all relevant information you are aware of, and feel free to extrapolate additional details as necessary. Be sure to include any symptoms you observe and complete as much of the athlete's history as you can.

o After you've completed the intake assessment form, identify a minimum of two diagnostic possibilities you would consider as potentially present in the athlete.

Describe the assessments you might use if you were to be evaluating this athlete as a sport psychologist.

Complete your intake assessment form and diagnostic possibilities in two to three pages and present it in Microsoft Word
