Abstract [en]

The present study validated a Swedish version of the 47-item Coaching Behavior Scale for Sport (CBS-S). Sample 1 consisted of 506 team sport athletes [262 men and 244 women; mean age: 22.20, standard deviation (SD) = 3.90] distributed across 41 coaches at the two highest national levels of various sports. Athletes completed the CBS-S and established questionnaires of coaching behaviors (LSS), self-confidence (CSAI-2R), and coach-athlete relationship (CART-Q). An additional sample of 39 basketball players (21 men and 18 women; mean age = 17.40, SD = 2.39) completed the CBS-S twice, approximately 4 weeks apart. Confirmatory factor analysis showed an acceptable model fit for the seven-factor version of the CBS-S, although two items of the negative personal rapport subscale displayed insufficient factor loadings. Correlations between the subscales of the CBS-S and established instruments were in accordance with theoretical expectations, supporting the concurrent validity. Cronbach's alpha (> 0.82) for all dimensions provided support for the reliability of the CBS-S, and test-retest correlations indicated moderate stability over time. Cultural differences in the assessment of coaching behaviors and the usability of the CBS-S by coaches for self-reflection and development are discussed.

Förlagets text:

När livet och idrotten fungerar som bäst mår man fint och prestationsförmågan är på topp. I detta drömläge är behovet av KBT (kognitiv beteendeterapi) mycket litet. Men det är få förunnat att befinna sig i detta läge tjugofyra timmar om dygnet, sju dagar i veckan, femtiotvå veckor om året – varken hälsa eller prestationsförmåga är någonting statiskt.

Den psykiska ohälsan har blivit alltmer uppmärksammad. Enligt aktuell statistik från socialstyrelsen lever 20–40 procent av Sveriges befolkning med psykisk ohälsa. Psykisk ohälsa är ett vitt begrepp som omfattar allt från psykisk sjukdom till psykiska besvär som stör välbefinnandet och påverkar ens dagliga liv. Till exempel är förekomsten av depression under en livstid 31 procent för kvinnor samt 23 procent för män.

Det finns många exempel från alla nivåer i idrotten där både prestation och välbefinnande kan bli lidande på grund av mer eller mindre omfattande psykiska besvär. Det är för många lättare att tala öppet om en smärta i foten jämfört med att tala om psykisk ohälsa. Dessutom försöker många idrottare minimera och helst radera alla uppenbara tecken på mental svaghet, särskilt i prestationssammanhang. Därför är det viktigt att arbeta med och tala mer om detta område, så att det blir mindre ”farligt” att erkänna att det finns problem av psykologisk karaktär.

KBT är en etablerad och framgångsrik metod som utgår från att tankar, känslor och beteenden påverkar hälsa och prestation. Metoden har bland annat visat sig vara effektiv mot ångest och depression.

Bättre idrottsprestationer med hjälp av KBT ger en introduktion till KBT och de vanligast förekommande problemområdena som finns förankrade i såväl den kliniska psykologin som i ett idrottsspecifikt sammanhang. Du får flera beskrivningar och exempel på hur behandlingar kan gå till väga.

Abstract [en]

This study presents the development process and initial validation of the NyTid test, a process-oriented movement assessment tool for compulsory school pupils. A sample of 1,260 (627 girls and 633 boys; mean age of 14.39) Swedish school children participated in the study. In the first step, exploratory factor analyses (EFAs) were performed in Sample 1, consisting of one third of the participants. The EFA indicated that the 17 skills in the test could be reduced to 12 and divided into four factors. In the second step, the suggested factor structure was cross-validated with confirmatory factor analyses (CFAs) in the larger Sample 2. The NyTid test adopts a holistic perspective in which qualitative criteria offer an alternative approach to product-oriented measurement. The study confirms that the NyTid test is a valid process-oriented assessment tool designed for typically developed children aged 12 and 16. ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR

Abstract [en]

This study investigated whether need satisfaction, need dissatisfaction, motivational climate, perfectionism and self-esteem relate to athletes’ discrete profiles of hedonic and eudaimonic well-being and perceived stress. Participants were 103 elite active orienteers (49 men and 54 women; mean age = 22.3 ± 4.4) who clustered into three distinctive well-being and stress patterns: Cluster 1 (lower well-being/higher stress; n = 26), Cluster 2 (higher well-being/lower stress; n = 39), and Cluster 3 (moderate well-being/moderate stress; n = 36). Cluster 1 and 2 constituted distinct well-being/stress profiles and differed significantly (p < .01) in mastery-oriented climate, need satisfaction, need dissatisfaction, perfectionistic concerns and self-esteem scores. A discriminant analysis showed these five variables to correctly assign 88 % of Cluster 1 and 2 participants into their respective groups, although mastery-oriented climate was revealed as a less influential indicator (function loading <.40). The substantial function loading of need dissatisfaction supports the importance of assessing both need satisfaction and dissatisfaction as they contribute uniquely to well-being.

Abstract [en]

Research has highlighted flotation-REST as a promising method for relaxation and performance enhancement in sport; however, to further evaluate the use of flotation-REST in an athletic environment, additional research is warranted. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six elite track and field athletes about their experiences and perceived effects of flotation-REST. Athletes were interviewed twice; once for their immediate response and again to explore their perceptions of flotation-REST over time. The data was analyzed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Flotation-REST was perceived as pleasant and relaxing. Five athletes reported less stress and an overall increase in well-being for one or two days afterwards, although they felt physically tired during training sessions. Being in a better mood, placing fewer demands on themselves, and feeling more optimistic and present were also perceived effects. This study shows the potential of flotation-REST as a technique for health promotion, stress management, and a means to practise mindfulness. ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR

Abstract [sv]

Samtidigt som idrottspsykologi har blivit accepterad i både idrott och forskning ökar kraven på vetenskapliga metoder i det tillämpade arbetet. Fler och fler idrottspsykologiska rådgivare använder sig av kognitiv beteendeterapi. Det är en naturlig utveckling mot en modern idrottspsykologi.

Inom den idrottspsykologiska tillämpade litteraturen hörs fler och fler röster som förespråkar ett tydligare evidensbaserat arbetssätt. Evidensbaserade metoder och evidensbaserade arbetssätt har under snart två decennier varit vanligt inom sjukvården, både inom det medicinska och psykologiska fältet. Historiskt har både klinisk psykologi och idrottspsykologi många gånger fått kämpa för att bli respekterade i förhållande till medicin och fysiologi.

Det har helt enkelt inte alltid ansetts som självklart att kroppen har ett huvud och huvudet har en kropp, och att de två därför samverkar. Att kunna visa upp vetenskapliga bevis har blivit allt viktigare för att få professionellt erkännande. Men inriktningen mot att kräva mer vetenskapliga bevis har också mött kritik, bland annat eftersom det riskerar att utesluta psykologiska modeller som är svåra att forska på eller att hämma kreativiteten och innovationskraften hos rådgivare och terapeuter.

Abstract [en]

This study examined subjective (SWB), psychological (PWB) and social well-being (Social WB) at a global and sport contextual level among ten elite orienteers (6 women and 4 men, median age = 20.4, range 18 to 30) by employing semi-structured interviews. Athletes described SWB as an interplay of satisfaction with life, sport experiences and perceived health combined with experienced enjoyment and happiness in both ordinary life and sport. SWB and PWB interacted, and important psychological functioning among the elite athletes included, among other things, abilities to adopt value-driven behaviors, be part of functional relationships, and to self-regulate one’s autonomy. The ability to organize and combine ordinary life with elite sport, and the use of strategies to protect the self during setbacks was also emphasized. For a comprehensive theoretical understanding of well-being applicable to elite athletes, the need for a holistic view considering both global and sport-specific aspects of WB is discussed.

Abstract [en]

Objective

In this study we examined the relationship between trait hope and burnout in elite junior soccer players and whether stress and positive and negative affect mediated this relationship.

Methods

Participants were 238 Swedish soccer players (166 males, 71 females; one did not indicate gender) aged 15–19 years who completed questionnaires measuring trait hope, perceived stress, positive and negative affect, and athlete burnout (i.e., emotional/physical exhaustion, a reduced sense of accomplishment, and sport devaluation).

Results

Bivariate correlations were consistent with hope theory contentions indicating significant negative relationships between hope and all three burnout dimensions. The relationship between hope and emotional/physical exhaustion was fully mediated by stress and positive affect. For sport devaluation and reduced sense of accomplishment, stress and positive affect partially mediated the relationship with hope. In contrast, negative affect did not mediate the relationship between hope and any of the burnout dimensions.

Conclusion

The results support earlier findings that hope is negatively related to athlete burnout. Support was also found for the hypothesis that high hope individuals would experience less stress and therefore less burnout. Promoting hope may be relevant in reducing the likelihood of this detrimental syndrome.
