Does the level of stress in collegiate athletes correlate to the number of credits they take per semester?

My first steps to figuring out this question will be to find a group of students that are participating collegiate athletes and college students and a group of students that are not in college sports. Afterwards, I’ll be surveying them and comparing results of the surveys to determine if there is any evidence that adds any information to my thesis. My next steps are TBD.
