Sport Sociology examines how human behavior and social structures interact within athletic environments, aiming to understand sport's societal functions. This field analyzes behavioral trends and social dynamics in sports, while investigating the institutional frameworks surrounding athletic activities. The program operates under the Tucker Center for Research on Girls & Women in Sport. Ongoing studies cover topics such as how female athletes are portrayed in media, decreasing sedentary lifestyles among minority girls, and how coaches' and parents' emotional expressions affect young competitors.
