The Lived Sport Experiences of Muslim Females Athletes Leading Advocacy and Activist Initiatives in Sport
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Using Zine’s (2004) Critical Faith-Centered Framework, this research focused on Muslim female athletes who engaged in advocacy and activist initiatives in sport. To be exact, the research purpose was to explore the lived sport experiences of Muslim female athletes' advocacy and activist initiatives, specifically as they create sport opportunities for Muslim girls and women. The intended three research questions included 1), what are the sport experiences of Muslim female athletes who are actively advocating for Muslim girls and women?, 2), how are Muslim female athletes facilitating sport opportunities for Muslim girls and women?, and 3), in what ways are Muslim female athletes engaging in advocacy and activist initiatives? Two virtual interviews took place with eight Muslim female athletes whose work revolved around creating sport opportunities for Muslim girls and women in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). Using Braun and Clark's (2006) thematic content analysis, three themes were identified. The first theme identified was Muslim women’s catalyst for current work, related to the ways participants experienced sport and how that served as a catalysts with their current work creating sport opportunities for the next generations of Muslim girls and women. The second theme identified was, Muslim women navigating their identity(ies) with their work, related to participants various identities and the ways they navigated such identities with their work, and the third theme identified was, factors shaping and evolving Muslim female athletes work, which related to the support that shaped and evolved their work. The finding indicated that participants' youth sport experience played a significant role in the ways they facilitated sport opportunities for Muslim girls and women, and participants both engaged in advocacy and activist initiatives with their work.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
