ABSTRACT

Introduction: Positive ethics is a trending topic in sports. However, a gap exists when sexuality and gender issues are concerned. This study aimed to explore the concept of sexual integrity as an opportunity for the development of a positive ethics approach of sexuality and gender in sport contexts.

Materials and methods: To obtain consensus on definition, operationalization, and competences, a Delphi study was conducted among 77 stakeholders divided into panels of youth coaches, physical education (PE) teachers, athletes, and PE students.

Results: Consensus was reached on a definition and operationalization of sexual integrity in sport contexts, defining it as the conscious, respectful, and responsible handling of one’s own and other people's body, opinions, relationships, and behaviour with regard to sexuality and gender, with the aim of contributing to the pleasure, development, resilience, and safety of (young) people in sports. Core competences for sexual integrity were highlighted, not only for coaches and PE teachers, but also for youngsters to develop.

Discussion: This study presents a definition, an operationalization, and a number of competences for sexual integrity. With these, an essential connection with a positive ethical climate is proposed for the benefit of coaches, PE teachers, and youngsters as actors. The operationalization and concrete list of competences will aid the development of future prevention policies regarding sexual and gender-based violence, with an important opportunity for programme designers and policy makers to optimize training programmes. Further research is required to include sport federations’ perspectives and to develop and implement programmes addressing sexual integrity for the benefit of coaches, PE teachers, and youngsters.

摘要

简介：积极伦理是体育界的热门话题。然而，在涉及性和性别问题时存在差距。本研究旨在探索性完整性的概念，作为在体育环境中发展积极的性和性别伦理方法的机会。

材料和方法：为了就定义、操作和能力达成共识，在 77 名利益相关者中进行了一项德尔福研究，这些利益相关者分为青年教练、体育 (PE) 教师、运动员和体育学生。

结果：就体育环境中性完整性的定义和操作达成共识，将其定义为有意识、尊重和负责任地处理自己和他人的身体、意见、关系以及与性和性别有关的行为，旨在为（年轻人）体育运动的乐趣、发展、适应力和安全做出贡献。性完整性的核心能力得到了强调，不仅对于教练和体育教师，而且对于青少年的发展也是如此。

讨论：这项研究提出了性完整性的定义、操作和一些能力。有了这些，为了教练、体育老师和作为演员的年轻人的利益，提出了与积极的道德氛围的基本联系。能力的实施和具体清单将有助于制定未来关于性暴力和基于性别的暴力的预防政策，为方案设计者和政策制定者优化培训方案提供重要机会。需要进一步研究以纳入体育联合会的观点，并为教练、体育教师和青少年的利益制定和实施解决性完整性问题的计划。
