The aim of the Journal of Sport Psychology in Action (JSPA) is to provide psychology practitioners involved in the sport industry with sound information that is immediately applicable to their work. It provides sport psychologists with useful and sensible informed guidance that will make a difference in the way they practice.
The scope of JSPA is any information that assists sport psychology practitioners to better understand, assess, and intervene with clients (individuals, families, groups, organizations, community) in order to promote more effective functioning. In all sport settings, practitioners are likely to encounter a range of issues that require understanding of performance enhancement, health and well-being, clinical disorders, ethical guidelines and dilemmas, all forms of diversity, coaching and support, and so forth.
Although the core audience of JSPA is psychologists and consultants practicing in the sport domain, we also wish to appeal to a range of other informed delivers and consumers, including students, trainee psychologists, educators and supervisors, sports scientists and medics, sports coaches and parents, performance directors and managers, the media, and athletes themselves.
All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is double anonymized and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
For descriptions of the types of manuscripts considered for publication in JSPA please consult the Editorial in Volume 13, Issue 2, page 71-77, entitled “ Current Reflections on Publishing in the Journal of Sport Psychology in Action”. Prospective authors should note that original research studies or reviews of theory and/or research will not be considered for publication.
