Key Points

To examine how undergraduate sport science students engage with and interpret an autoethnographic story within a situated narrative pedagogy activity.
Enrolled 181 undergraduate Sport Sciences students in a narrative pedagogy reading exercise conducted in the physical location where the narrative's events took place.
Collected data via individual written reflections, group discussions, and researcher field notes, analyzing responses using ideal-type analysis.
Identified four distinct reading inclinations among students: identification, recognition, dismissal, and absent engagement.
Demonstrated that while some reading inclinations facilitated critical reflection on normative assumptions, others constrained engagement, showing pedagogical efficacy relies on the interaction of reader, text, and reading environment.
