Thesis
Weaving, D. A. The effect of training mode on the validity of training load measures for quantifying the training dose in professional rugby league. (Thesis). University of Hull. https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4219251

Establishing the accurate quantification of the training load is a key focus for researchers and sport scientists to maximise the likelihood of appropriate training prescription. In the field, there are numerous methods adopted to quantify the physio...

Challenge and relief : a Foucauldian disciplinary analysis of retirement from professional association football in the United Kingdom (2016)
Journal Article
Jones, L., & Denison, J. (2017). Challenge and relief : a Foucauldian disciplinary analysis of retirement from professional association football in the United Kingdom. International Review for the Sociology of Sport, 52(8), 924-939. https://doi.org/10.1177/1012690215625348

The aim of this study was to consider the retirement experiences of British male professional Association footballers by utilising Foucault’s (1991) analysis of discipline discussed in Discipline and Punish: the Birth of the Prison. Specifically, we... Read More about Challenge and relief : a Foucauldian disciplinary analysis of retirement from professional association football in the United Kingdom.

Hot and Hypoxic Environments Inhibit Simulated Soccer Performance and Exacerbate Performance Decrements When Combined (2016)
Journal Article
Aldous, J. W. F., Chrismas, B. C. R., Akubat, I., Dascombe, B., Abt, G., & Taylor, L. (2016). Hot and Hypoxic Environments Inhibit Simulated Soccer Performance and Exacerbate Performance Decrements When Combined. Frontiers in Physiology, 6(185), 1-14. https://doi.org/10.3389/fphys.2015.00421

The effects of heat and/or hypoxia have been well-documented in match-play data. However, large match-to-match variation for key physical performance measures makes environmental inferences difficult to ascertain from soccer match-play. Therefore, th...

The model of motivational dynamics in sport : resistance to peer influence, behavioral engagement and disaffection, dispositional coping, and resilience (2016)
Journal Article
Nicholls, A., Morley, D., & Perry, J. (2016). The model of motivational dynamics in sport : resistance to peer influence, behavioral engagement and disaffection, dispositional coping, and resilience. Frontiers in Psychology, 6, 2010-1-2010-9. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpsyg.2015.02010

The Model of Motivational Dynamics (MMD; Skinner and Pitzer, 2012) infers that peers influence behavioral engagement levels, which in turn is linked to coping and resilience. Scholars, however, are yet to test the MMD among an athletic population. Th...
