UCONN research study: Basketball Gratitude Survey

Hello Players and Coaches!

I am a researcher at the University of Connecticut, and I am writing to invite you all to complete a brief survey regarding your gratitude for your basketball experiences and your appraisal of your basketball abilities.

The Basketball Appraisal and Gratitude Inventory is a one-time, anonymous, UCONN-approved survey that will take approximately 5-10 minutes of your time. To access the survey and additional information about this study, please click the following link:

Basketball Appraisal and Gratitude Inventory

I have been coaching high school and youth basketball for the last 15 years. Throughout my coaching career, I've learned so much from and felt so supported by many coaches and players, including many on this site. I am now working on my Ph.D. in Educational Psychology at UCONN, and I am researching the role of gratitude in enhancing self-efficacy, performance, and persistence in basketball.

Thank you in advance for your time and participation in this important research!

Best,
Dave Alexandro

PS: I have also posted this request for Players and Coaches above the Youth level. I am not trolling--simply trying to measure the basketball gratitude of a wide sample of basketball enthusiasts!
