The academic and personal development of intercollegiate athletes is a growing concern among academic administrators and student affairs professionals. The authors explore two problems, role conflict and athletic retirement, commonly faced by student‐athletes. Also, they describe several potentially useful intervention models based on a psychoeducational approach and suggest some directions for future research in aiding understanding of student‐athlete development.
