Abstract

Members of the National Association of Collegiate Women Athletics Administrators were surveyed about their mentoring relationships with both male and female mentors. Their preferences and actual received functions were assessed to see if their expectations differed from their actual experiences, as well as the functions, barriers and outcomes experienced with respect to the gender of the mentor. The results of the t-test for the expectations and the actual experiences revealed that six of nine functions were significantly different, with the actual functions provided falling short of preferences. The results of the MANOVAs demonstrated that there was no significant difference in the gender of the mentor and the functions provided, or the barriers and outcomes experienced, and the gender of the mentor.
