Mediation analysis revealed that the relationships between the coach leadership (Modeling the way for others to follow, Relational Adjustment, and Dedicated Leadership) and voice were partially mediated by psychological safety. Furthermore, moderated mediation analysis revealed two things in cases where student-athletes perceived a higher-than-average acceptance of innovation. First, psychological safety fully mediated the relationship between coach leadership (Modeling the way for others to follow, Relational Adjustment) and voice. Second, psychological safety partially mediated the relationship between Dedicated Leadership and voice. On the other hand, when student-athletes perceived low acceptance of innovation, moderated mediation analysis indicated that coach leadership (Modeling the way for others to follow, Relational Adjustment, Dedicated Leadership) had no direct or indirect effect on the voices. The findings of this study contribute to a better understanding of the factors that lead student-athletes to voice their thoughts and feelings without concern or hesitation.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100129,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology","volume":"5 1","pages":"Pages 33-42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143936034","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A multi-phase, mixed-method study design on 12 older adults was used to gain insight into older adult's perceptions of five types of PA (two sports, resistance exercise, exergaming, yoga and home-based exercise). 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 popularity extends to the field of sport psychology. Due to this popularity, many college student-athletes have exposure to mindfulness with or without the guidance of a sport psychology consultant or mindfulness teacher. Most mindfulness research in sport psychology has centered on the effectiveness of formal mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) for performance enhancement and wellbeing. However, little to no evidence exists demonstrating how student-athletes understand mindfulness, and how this understanding might connect to motivation for continued practice or benefits received. Further, no research to our knowledge exists exploring the use of mindfulness practice by individual student-athletes outside of formal MBIs delivered in a group or team format. Moreover, some research proposes that the oversimplified incorporation of mindfulness in Western Psychology might be a factor in decreased participation and compliance with MBIs. The purposes of the present study were to investigate how athletes engage in and understand mindfulness practice and to explore potential benefits, barriers, and adverse experiences related to their practice. The Consensual Qualitative Research (CQR) protocol (Hill, 2012) was utilized to examine the experiences of 15 college student-athletes with varying degrees of mindfulness exposure and practice. The analysis yielded three distinct domains, including (a) conceptual understanding, (b) details of mindfulness practice, and (c) contextual factors influencing practice. Results offer sport psychology professionals insight into how athletes understand mindfulness, and how this might affect their engagement with, and benefits received from utilizing mindfulness-based approaches.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":100129,"journal":{"name":"Asian Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology","volume":"5 1","pages":"Pages 1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143936062","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

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.

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.
