Written by a team of international experts and emerging talents
from around the world, Sport Injury Psychology: Cultural,
Relational, Methodological, and Applied Considerations challenges
the status quo of the field of sport injury psychology and opens
new and exciting future research trajectories by critically
considering: How to evolve from an individual focused and single,
scientific discipline into a cultural and relational focused and
interdisciplinary discourse How to shift from the dominant
positivist foundation towards a more inclusive scholarship with
divergent epistemologies, theories, and methodologies How to
replace the attempt to establish 'best practice' and desire for
'clean' findings with the need for continuous innovation and
multifaceted applied experiences Each chapter stimulates debate and
encourages theoretical, methodological, and/or applied
diversification, and closes with future research directions that
provide novel and rigorous programs of research that have the
potential to advance the field of sport injury psychology into an
interdisciplinary discourse that strives for and embraces
collaboration between academic disciplines and with practitioners
working in the field. Cutting edge, timely, and comprehensive,
Sport Injury Psychology: Cultural, Relational, Methodological, and
Applied Considerations is essential reading for undergraduate
students, postgraduate students, and more established scholars in
the fields of sport communication, sports medicine, sport
psychology, sports sociology, and other related sport science
disciplines.

Growth Following Adversity in Sport: A Mechanism to Positive Change
is the first text to carefully consider the positive changes that
may follow adverse experiences in sport at micro (e.g.,
individual), meso (e.g., dyadic, team), and macro levels (e.g.,
organizational, cultural). While remaining respectful of the
despair and distress that can follow adversity, this comprehensive
text aims to provide a narrative of hope to those who have
experienced adversity in sport by showcasing the latestadvances in
research on growth following adversity. This book covers topics as
diverse as: conceptual, theoretical, and methodological
considerations; cultural, organizational, and relational
perspectives; population-specific insights (e.g., gender,
disability, youth); and applied implications (e.g., evidence-based,
practice-based). Written and edited by a team of international
experts and emerging talents from around the world, each chapter
considers the nature and meaning of growth, contains a
comprehensive review of empirical research or reflections from
professional practice, and offers exciting, novel, and rigorous
suggestions for future programs of research that aim to promote
positive change in sport to support the safety, wellbeing, and
welfare of the people who take part (e.g., athletes, coaches, paid
employees, volunteers). Cutting-edge, timely, and comprehensive,
Growth Following Adversity in Sport: A Mechanism to Positive Change
is essential reading for postgraduate students and scholars in the
fields of sport psychology, injury and rehabilitation, sport theory
and other related sport science disciplines.
