A February 2022 survey in the United States explored the positive impact that certain events would have on the public opinion of professional athletes. Two thirds of respondents aged 18 to 34 years old stated that an athlete openly prioritizing their mental health would positively influence their perception of said athlete. Meanwhile, only 15 percent of respondents aged 55 years and older looked positively on an athlete for publicly admitting marital problems.
