TY - JOUR PY - 2012// TI - Loyalty: Why Is It So Problematic in Athletics? JO - Journal of college and character A1 - Stoll, Sharon Kay SP - EP - VL - 13 IS - 2 N2 - What is loyalty and why is it problematic in athletics? The author discusses the ethical lapses that can occur when a powerful social value, loyalty, trumps individuals' ability to make moral decisions. She argues that education about morality should be a necessary part of sport education and explains how moral education programs can make a difference in reasoning and sometimes moral behavior of athlete populations. Research on moral reasoning with athlete and coach populations is given.
