Revista de Psicologia del Deporte

Aims & Scope

The Revista de Psicología del Deporte/Journal of Sport Psychology (RPD/JSP) is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal aimed at publishing scientific papers based on rigorous methodologies directed to contribute to the development of the field of Sport and Exercise Psychology. RPD/JSP publishes original research articles either using quantitative or qualitative methodologies which represent a significant contribution to the current knowledge. This includes a vast range of empirical studies including the validation and/or adaptation of measurement instruments. Validation of questionnaires should follow recommendations of the American Educational Association (https://www.apa.org/science/programs/testing/standards ), American Psychological Association & National Council on Measurement in Education (2014). Adaptation of questionnaires should follow the International Test Commission (https://www.intestcom.org/files/guideline_test_adaptation_2ed.pdf ) recommendations, particularly regarding the confirmatory aim the study should have. RPD/JSP also publishes theoretical papers, systematic reviews, and meta-analyses as well as book reviews relevant to the field. The journal is focused on Sport and Exercise Psychology but multidisciplinary approaches from allied disciplines are particularly welcome. In the case of systematic reviews and meta-analysis, it is strongly recommended authors follow the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA; http://www.prisma-statement.org )
