Works in progress include the examination of quantitative and qualitative data examining participation in physical activity and the relationship to social cognitive variables, as well as understanding CrossFit training and participation. My doctoral dissertation examines meta-analytic results of the antecedent/consequence relationship to achievement goal orientation in physical activity and educational domains. My research focuses on the adoption of goal orientations and physical activity patterns in various populations.
