  • Kicking Conflict in Athletic Training Practice Settings
    Contains 6 Component(s), Includes Credits

    Organizational conflict can occur for athletic trainers due to competing priorities between clinicians and other stakeholders (coaches, players, parents, etc.). Work-family conflict can also occur due to the requirements of working in athletics. Pressure to make clinical decisions and work-family conflict have been shown to affect job status and quality of life previously. Therefore, it is critical for clinicians to learn conflict management strategies to successfully mitigate stress.
