dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study is to investigate the psycho-social determinants of stress level among undergraduate-athletes of private universities in Oyo State, Nigeria and to achieve this; two hundred and thirty-two male and female undergraduate-athletes were used. Purposive sampling techniques were used to select three out of seven private universities in Oyo State and proportional sampling techniques were used to select the respondents, thus 106 respondents were selected from Lead City University, Ibadan, 40 from Kola Daisi University, Ibadan and 86 from AjayiCrowther University, Oyo. Mixing methods of data collection were used in that the questionnaire was administered by the researcher with the help of four trained research assistants also with online survey system. Research question were posed and eight hypotheses were postulated to guide the study, descriptive statistics of frequency counts, percentages and charts were used to analyze the demographic data in Section A. Inferential statistics of T-test were used to test hypotheses 1 and 2, Multiple Regression were used to test hypotheses 3-7, while T-test were used to test hypothesis 8. All hypotheses were tested at 0.05 Alpha levels. The respondents rejected most of the fear of failure as items contributing to psychological determinant of stress level. Respondents also agreed with most of the Self-doubt Scale as items contributing to their psychological determinant factors of stress levels. There is a significant difference between fear of failure and self-doubt on stress level among undergraduate-athletes; there is a significant difference between relationship with coach and parental pressure on stress level among undergraduate-athletes. Based on major findings and conclusion, recommendation will be that executives of institutions in conjunction with the sports personnel (such as coaches, trainer, sports psychologist etc.) and parents should plan workshops to assist their athletes, manage psycho-social stress level and in that way, help them balance it.
