The dose-response validity of measures of training load in professional soccer players (2016)
Thesis
Svenson, R. P. The dose-response validity of measures of training load in professional soccer players. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4220592

Introduction: There is currently a lack of research into the physical demands of soccer training despite it contributing towards 75-80% of weekly training load. A particular area requiring more focus is the does-response relationship between training... Read More about The dose-response validity of measures of training load in professional soccer players.

Sports policy in England has led to considerable recent investment in Primary Physical Education (PE) via the ‘PE and Sport Premium’. An outcome of this has been growth in the outsourcing - handing over control of services to external agencies - of P...

Personality and individual differences, 98, 133-136. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.paid.2016.03.097

Researchers have proposed 1-factor, 2-factor, and bifactor solutions to the 12-item Consideration of Future Consequences Scale (CFCS-12). In order to overcome some measurement problems and to create a robust and conceptually useful two-factor scale t...

Human platelet activation by Escherichia coli: roles for FcγRIIA and integrin αIIbβ3 (2016)
Journal Article

Gram-negative Escherichia coli cause diseases such as sepsis and hemolytic uremic syndrome in which thrombotic disorders can be found. Direct platelet–bacterium interactions might contribute to some of these conditions; however, mechanisms of human p...

Perceptions of coach-athlete relationship are more important to coaches than athletes in predicting dyadic coping and stress appraisals: An actor-partner independence mediation model (2016)
Journal Article
Nicholls, A. R., & Perry, J. L. (2016). Perceptions of coach-athlete relationship are more important to coaches than athletes in predicting dyadic coping and stress appraisals: An actor-partner independence mediation model. Frontiers in Psychology, 7(MAR), Article 447. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2016.00447

Most attempts to manage stress involve at least one other person, yet coping studies in sport tend to report an athlete’s individual coping strategies. There is a limited understanding of coping involving other people, particularly within sport, desp...

Mentally tough athletes are more aware of unsupportive coaching behaviours: Perceptions of coach behaviour, motivational climate, and mental toughness in sport (2016)
Journal Article
Nicholls, A. R., Perry, J. L., & Morley, D. (2016). Mentally tough athletes are more aware of unsupportive coaching behaviours: Perceptions of coach behaviour, motivational climate, and mental toughness in sport.

In this study we tested an a priori model that included coach behaviour, motivational climate, and mental toughness among 290 athletes. Structural equation modelling demonstrated that supportive coach behaviours were related to a task-involving clima...
