Sport psychology in emerging countries: An introduction
The International Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology is actively seeking to expand understandings about the research practices and projects from countries lesser known among English-speaking scholars. Within this introduction, the authors explore the possible barriers encountered by non-English-speaking sport psychology scholars residing in countries where submissions are sparse to Anglophone journals. Afterward, the authors introduce five accepted publications from Jordan, Botswana, Tanzania, South Africa, and Brazil. These submissions are the journal's inaugural special section devoted to research and scholars from “emerging countries”. © 2016 International Society of Sport Psychology
Pathways for community research in sport and physical activity: criteria for consideration
Sport psychology in emerging countries, special section 2: Introduction
This is the 2nd special issue section focused on sport and exercise psychology research and practice in countries referred to as “emerging” in sport and exercise psychology. Promotion of sport psychology research and practice in emerging countries is an important aim in this journal and of the International Society of Sport Psychology (ISSP). This special issue is one among several actions adopted by the ISSP to promote sport psychology in emerging countries. Six articles are reported here from China, Ghana, Argentina and Brazil. Some of them focus on sport psychology practice while others cover different areas of sport and exercise psychology research. These contributions extend beyond building capacity in these regions to an equal mandate: revealing diverse sport psychology practices from the global sport psychology community. © 2019, © 2019 International Society of Sport Psychology
