Participants: 22 delegates (14 women, 8 men) from the 2006 Association of Chartered Physiotherapists in Sports Medicine/International Federation of Sports Physiotherapy annual conference (response rate 53.7%). Measure­ments: A questionnaire survey for best method of sport psychology delivery was developed. Results: The most suitable methods for sport-psychology-training delivery were workshops, seminars, mentoring, and coaching. Intense training days and weekends were considered most appropriate. The vast majority were willing to travel over 50 miles to receive training, and they indicated that the most suitable organizations to arrange training would be professional bodies and associations. Conclusions: The findings provide suggestions into how further training in sport psychology for chartered physiotherapists could be delivered. To gain more detailed information on these issues, however, further research with a larger sample size is recommende

The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of competitive level (elite/novice) and skill-type (open/closed) on athletes' imagery use. A total of 83 British athletes (39 elite, 44 novice) from open-(n = 40: 23 rugby; 17 martial arts) and closed-skill (n = 43: 28 golf; 15 figure skating) sports completed the Sport Imagery Questionnaire no more than 24 hours prior to competition. MANOVA revealed that main effects due to competitive level and skill-type were significant (p < .05). Univariate analyses revealed that elite athletes used more CS and CG imagery than novices (p < .001), and contrary to previous research findings, athletes in open-skilled sports used more MG-A imagery than those in closed-skill sports (p < .001). Overall, MG-M was the most used imagery type, regardless of competitive level and skill-type. The results are discussed in terms of methodological difficulties, future research, and practical implications.

The reader is introduced to our academic journey, paying homage to #ResearchMountain (see @DoctorSizzle, Twitter). Using thematic description and selected personal narratives, it is our goal to provide neophyte researchers, and anyone considering authoring a scholarly publication, tangible guidance in their publishing pursuits.

Affectionately known by the faculty and the student members of the inaugural Editorial Board as JASPR (jAS-PRr) for short, its mission is to expand the field of psychology in the domains of sport, exercise, and performance. By focusing on student-led research only, JASPR offers students unparalleled opportunities to engage as authors, reviewers, and editorial board members within a mentored publishing infrastructure.

The current study sought to gain further insights into consultants' reflections on the role of humor, humor styles, purposes for humor, and experiences of humor use. Forty-eight sport psychology consultants completed an online survey comprising open-ended questions. Thematic analysis revealed four themes: (a) it's the way I tell 'em, (b) it's the way I don't tell 'em, (c) this is why I tell 'em, and (d) learning to use humor in consultancy. Participants used two styles of humor (i.e., 'deadpan' and 'self-deprecating') each having the goal of facilitating the working alliance. Although not all participants used humor during consultancy, its incorporation might render the working alliance and the real relationship as resources in ways (e.g., a "barometer" that predicts consultancy outcomes) previously not considered in applied sport psychology.

Research paper thumbnail of Functional Movement Screen Factorial Validity and Measurement Invariance Across Sex Among Collegiate Student-Athletes

Despite recent research on the factorial validity of the FMS, no confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) has been conducted to examine measurement invariance across sex among student-athletes. The primary purpose of the current study was to confirm the factor structure of the FMS measurement model in a collegiate student-athlete population. It was hypothesized that the one-factor model would demonstrate better model fit than the recently proposed two-factor model. The secondary purpose of the study was to examine FMS measurement invariance across sex using the previously identified measurement model. It was hypothesized that FMS measurement invariance would hold across sex. Male (n = 88) and female (n = 88) collegiate student-athletes completed FMS screening during the off-season. Factorial validity was examined using CFA procedures and model parameters were estimated using maximum likelihood (ML) estimation. Measurement invariance was examined via comparisons of fit indices between hierarchically constrained models. Results revealed support for both the one-and two-factor models; however, the twofactor model failed to fit the data significantly better than the one-factor model. Results also indicated that measurement invariance did not hold across sex, indicating that the FMS sum score construct is not measured equivalently in males and females. Collectively, results provide evidence for the use of the unidimensional FMS sum score among collegiate student-athletes, yet prompt caution as it relates to the evaluation of sex differences in sum or movement pattern scores.
