Motivational profiles and their relation to wellbeing, burnout, and drop-out intentions in university football players in the UK: A mixed methods approach
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2023 Dec 12:102585. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102585. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn this multi-study paper, we adopted a mixed methods approach to examine the motivational profiles of sub-elite student footballers participating in UK university sport, in relation to their wellbeing, burnout, and drop-out intentions. In Study 1 we used a cross-sectional survey design to collect quantitative measures of motivational regulations, wellbeing, burnout, and drop-out intentions in 260 (n = 129 female) and (n = 131 male) sub-elite university footballers from UK universities (Mage = 20.7 y, SD = 1.5 y). ...

Exercise as the sum of our choices between behavioral alternatives: The Decisional Preferences in Exercising (DPEX) test
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2024 Jan;70:102509. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102509. Epub 2023 Aug 16.ABSTRACTExercising can be theorized as the result of choosing one behavior over alternative behaviors. The Decisional Preferences in Exercising (DPEX) test is a computerized, easy-to-use, publicly available (open source Python code: https://osf.io/ahbjr/) and highly adaptive research tool based on this rationale. In the DPEX, participants are asked to choose between two images by pressing a key on the computer keyboard, one showing a physical exercise and the other showing a non-exercise behavioral alternative in a series of tr...

Self-regulatory processes in goal striving during excellent distance-running performances: A qualitative study
CONCLUSIONS: Our findings extend theoretical understandings of goal striving and the self-regulatory processes endurance performers employ to attain and/or adapt their goals. Psychological support provided for athletes should go beyond simply setting goals, but also include training on mental frameworks such as MCII to manage goal-striving challenges and decisional conflict encountered during performances.PMID:38065659 | DOI:10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102516 (Source: Psychology of Sport and Exercise)

Narcissism and antisocial behaviour in sport: The moderating role of self-compassion
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2024 Jan;70:102528. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102528. Epub 2023 Aug 30.ABSTRACTNarcissism, which features the chronic disposition to seek the opportunity to construct and maintain an inflated self, is a known risk for antisocial behaviour. However, knowledge of factors that mitigate the effects of narcissism on antisocial behaviour is lacking. In two studies we explored the hypothesis that self-compassion would protect against the link between narcissism and antisocial behaviour, such that narcissism would be less related to antisocial behaviour when self-compassion was high. Study 1 was a cross-s...

"That's too stereotypical … I don't want that to be how I identify": Identity and body-related sport experiences of racialized young women athletes in Canada
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2024 Jan;70:102517. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102517. Epub 2023 Aug 25.ABSTRACTThere is minimal research on the sport experiences of racialized young women athletes in Canada. When studying racialized groups, an inclusive and meaningful approach to research is necessary because ethnicity and race are integral to understanding identity, diversity, discrimination, and overall experiences in sport. The purpose of this qualitative description study was to explore the identities and body-related sport experiences of racialized young women athletes in a variety of sports in Canada. Eight racialized youn...
