“…The Process-Person-Context-Time (PPCT) model is a contemporary interpretation of Bronfenbrenner's Ecological Theory, which asserts that a person's well-being and development are significantly influenced by the quality and effectiveness of the relationships within the system [46]. According to the PPCT model, a person's ability to grow depends greatly on their ability to engage with other people, things, and symbols in their surroundings.…”

Purpose: Faculty wellness is receiving global attention, especially in Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs). Employers in these institutions strive to ensure a sustained wellness culture to meet the faculty member's job expectations and ensure institutional productivity across the spectrum. Methodology: A thorough literature analysis is carried out to understand the various research works for understanding the importance given to faculty wellness in higher education across the globe through qualitative research methods. This critical evaluation uses a descriptive technique that is based on a critical analysis of scholarly studies. Results: Improving faculty members' overall wellness inter alia health is essential for many HEIs. Healthy faculty members experience more job satisfaction and exhibit higher productivity in their personal and professional aspects. Faculty members are often perceived as role models in academics. Hence, developing wellness programmes for faculty to facilitate satisfaction through healthy physical and mental well-being is also crucial in future. Originality/Value: A literature review is conducted to examine the behavioural intentions of faculty members towards wellness programmes. The goal is to enlist the perception of faculty on wellness programmes to review the existing behavioural intentions and to classify and provide an exhaustive analysis of the determinants influencing the faculty’s behavioural intentions. Exhaustive sources of academic references and data from websites are used in this study. Type of Paper: Literature Review Paper.

“…Applying the framework of social learning to eating disorders and female athletes, studies illustrate how the culture of an athletic team affects subsequent eating behaviors among its members. Burckes-Miller and Black (1991) observed that peers from athletic teams may exert a more powerful influence on body image than peers from other social settings. The researchers attributed this finding to shared team values often promoted within the athletic environment.…”

“…This "Do it for the team" mentality may cause athletes to feel responsible for not only their own place on the team, but for the competitive status of the team as a whole. Accordingly, many successful athletes view successful, slim athletes as role models for body-related attitudes and behaviors (Burckes-Miller & Black, 1991). Further, since many cross-country, gymnastics, swimming, and diving teams (among others) traditionally have team dinners before competitive events, athletes may adapt their eating styles to resemble those of their calorie-restricting teammates (Thompson & Sherman, 1993).…”

The relationship between nutrition and athletic performance has become a topic of increasing interest in college athletics. This study assessed the effect of nutrition education on the nutrition knowledge and dietary adequacy of female and male college athletes through a pre-test/post-test, control group design. Six weekly lessons were offered to the experimental groups. For female athletes, a two sample t-test indicated significant differences on gain scores for the experimental group (p<0.02) and mean differences (post minus pre-test) between experimental and control groups (p<0.03). For male athletes, no significant differences on gain scores for the experimental group (p<0.9) or the control group (p < 0.8) were found. No significant improvements in nutritional adequacy of the diet were noted for female or male athletes. Nutrition education provided through small group lectures resulted in a significant improvement in nutrition knowledge for female athletes.A different educational approach to enhance nutrition knowledge for these male athletes may be warranted.
