Recreational running is one sport where mothers (re)negotiate their subjectivity in ways that resist constraining good mother ideals by expanding strategies to enhance well-being. There remain nuanced tensions in this process that are less understood, particularly in terms of how mother runners negotiate training and competing. In this study, we used relativist narrative inquiry to explore these tensions and performance strategies of five North American competitive mother runners with young children, theorized as stories in cultural narratives. We used thematic narrative analysis to identify a theme of <em>patience with the process: it's a long and winding road</em>. We then shifted to storytellers to present the meanings of this theme as three accessible creative non-fiction (CNF) letters of advice to other potential mother runners. Advice letters outlined strategies pertaining to <em>the physical self, a flexible mindset</em> and <em>social support</em>. We reflect on the central theme in relation to narratives of good motherhood, sport performance, and discovery, and the implications for psycho-social tensions and performance strategies. CNF advice letters show the pedagogical potential of different kinds of stories to learn more about the constraining and empowering aspects of sport in mothers’ lives, in cultural context.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100129,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology","volume":"4 3","pages":"Pages 109-115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142659432","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First, we found that 20-point deficits and comebacks were more likely in recent seasons. Yet overcoming the odds and mounting a successful comeback were still achieved in only 7 % of the 3,942 qualified games. Moreover, games, that reached the 20-point deficit much earlier, were more likely to be overturned (i.e., comebacks) as they seemed not to reflect true differences in abilities between the teams in contention but a random tilt towards one team and then a correcting shift towards its opponent (i.e., regression to the mean). Also, games that hit the 20-point mark and were then tied did not show a winning momentum towards the resurging team. These trends should put emphasis on team resilience strategies at the participatory level of players and coaches through practice simulations and communication as well as through empirical research to identify specific team correlates with these extreme point shifts.</div></div><div><h3>Lay Summary</h3><div>We studied NBA games hitting a 20-point deficit during the first half for the 1997/8–2021/2 seasons.

Perceptions of these types of PA were collected pre-taster sessions and were re-evaluated after all taster sessions using questionnaires and focus groups. Triangulation of data revealed that in general, all PA types were enjoyed, but yoga was least popular. Pre-taster sessions, home-based exercise and resistance exercise were most popular whereas following the taster sessions, preferences were for exergaming, resistance exercise and sports. Our data highlights the effective utility of taster sessions and combined with other literature; we present several key recommendations to help to improve engagement in long-term PA behaviour in various PA types. These include ensuring adequate social interaction between similarly aged and ability capable older adults during PA.

This study investigates the intricate relationship between perfectionism and the Big Five personality traits, particularly within the context of athletes. We apply fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis (fsQCA) to survey data to identify which personality combinations lead to perfectionism. The study sample selected through purposive sampling from various sports disciplines within Macao and Anhui Province. Personality traits and perfectionism levels were assessed using the Simplified Chinese Big Five Personality Questionnaire (CBF-PI) and the Chinese Frost Multidimensional Perfectionism Questionnaire (CFMPS). Results indicate that neuroticism and conscientiousness are crucial in predicting perfectionistic concerns and perfectionistic strivings, respectively. Three personality configurations leading to perfectionistic concerns were identified, with high neuroticism, high conscientiousness, low extraversion, and low openness being core conditions. Four configurations leading to perfectionistic strivings were identified, with low neuroticism, high conscientiousness, high agreeableness, and either high extraversion or high openness as core conditions. The study reveals the complex interactions between personality traits and challenges the variable-centered research approach. The results underscore the importance of understanding the multidimensionality and complexity of perfectionism in athletes and offer directions for further research.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100129,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology","volume":"4 2","pages":"Pages 60-64"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2667239124000121/pdfft?md5=8990d7cfbcfb51c52be09ef7a8bab081&pid=1-s2.0-S2667239124000121-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141978379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
