"What we talk about is creating a probability": Exploring the interaction between the anticipation and decision-making processes of professional bowlers and batters in Twenty20 cricket
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2023 Sep 29:102543. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102543. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExpert performers in time constrained sports use a range of information sources to facilitate anticipatory and decision-making processes. However, research has often focused on responders such as batters, goalkeepers, defenders, and returners of serve, and failed to capture the complex interaction between opponents, where responders can also manipulate probabilities in their favour. This investigation aimed to explore the interaction between top order batters and fast or medium paced bowlers in cricket and the info...

Negative self-talk in runners: Emotional intelligence and perceived stress as explanatory factors
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2023 Sep 29:102545. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102545. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTo optimize in the cognitive and emotional processes that appear in stressful situations in sports contexts is a relevant aspect to achieve a high level of performance. The present study aimed to analyze the relationship between perceived stress, emotional intelligence and negative self-talk in runners. It also aimed to determine whether emotional intelligence factors could play a protective role in this relationship. The sample consisted of 1071 runners from a race held in the Basque Country (Spain). The age of th...

Testing the moderative role of automatic-reflective affect divergence in predicting physical activity
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2023 Sep 29:102538. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102538. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDual process theories postulate that behaviour is the product of two distinct cognitive systems, the automatic and reflective, and that congruence/divergence between the two types of cognitions can influence the predictive strength of either system on behaviour. However, the congruence/divergence hypothesis is yet to experience strong empirical support. The aim of this study was to test a novel dual process model to determine the moderating effect of affect divergence on the relationship between affective associati...

A quantitative assessment of the predictive utility of grit in sport
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2023 Sep 27:102540. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102540. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIn high-performance sport, an athlete's ability to overcome setbacks and sustain their pursuit of long-term goals is essential for success. Grit (i.e., passion and perseverance over long-terms) has been linked to success in a variety of domains but is often critiqued for its limited predictive utility when compared to other psychological variables including self-control, conscientiousness, and mental toughness. The purpose of this study was to examine whether grit predicted important athlete outcomes (i.e., various...

Development of the stressors among parents in youth sport survey (SPYSS)
CONCLUSIONS: The SPYSS assesses the frequency and intensity of a variety of stressors relevant for parents of youth sport athletes. The measure may be a useful tool for researchers and sport organizations and practitioners to assess, monitor, and target the stressors experienced by parents in youth sport settings.PMID:37775065 | DOI:10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102541 (Source: Psychology of Sport and Exercise)

How do new runners maintain their running, and what leads to others stopping? A qualitative, longitudinal study
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2023 Aug 23;70:102515. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102515. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMany people who start running do not maintain their behaviour change. We used qualitative, longitudinal methods to explore and interpret the experiences of new runners and answer the question, "What experiences explain how new runners maintain their running or explain why they stop?" We interviewed 20 new runners (all White British, 14 women, 6 men) about their experiences; we interviewed 10 until they stopped running and 10 until they maintained running for 6-12 months (65 interviews in total). We also conducte...

The roles of readiness and dosage in predicting outcomes of a mindful sport performance enhancement intervention with U.S. college student-athletes
Psychol Sport Exerc. 2023 Sep 16;70:102539. doi: 10.1016/j.psychsport.2023.102539. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTResearch suggests that Mindfulness- and Acceptance-Based Interventions (MABIs) can impact sport performance and performance-relevant factors, though questions remain regarding when and for whom MABIs are effective. Specifically, inquiries into intervention engagement (i.e., dosage), potentially impacted by participant readiness, are needed. The present study utilized a non-randomized control group design with U.S. collegiate athletes to investigate MABI effects. Four teams from two universities in the Appalachia...
