ABSTRACT

This systematic review explores the reflective accounts of applied sport psychology practitioners. The aim of this review was to synthesise the reflective accounts of applied sport psychology practitioners and highlight common themes that provide focus to their reflective practice. The insight into current progress on reflective content in applied sport psychology provides a foundation to build on as we continue to understand this topic. Following a systematic search of the literature, a total of 73 studies were included within the review, which were analysed using thematic content analysis. Analysis of the reflective accounts resulted in the creation of nine higher-order themes: Process and Purpose of Reflective Practice; Ethical Practice; Supporting Person and Performer; Practitioner Individuation; Relationships with Clients; Cultural Awareness; Competence-Related Angst; Support of Practitioner Development; and Evaluating Practitioner Effectiveness. The review includes recommendations for future research, such as the use of narrative analysis to provide further insight into applied practitioners’ experiences. We also provide practical implications, which are tailored to match the specific demands of practitioners at different stages of development and include increased engagement in critical reflection for trainee practitioners and engaging with ‘critical friends’ to facilitate the process of meta-reflection for newly qualified practitioners.

摘要

这篇系统综述探讨了应用运动心理学从业者的反思性叙述。本综述的目的是综合应用运动心理学从业者的反思性叙述，并突出强调他们反思性实践的共同主题。深入了解应用运动心理学中反思性内容的当前进展，为我们继续了解该主题奠定了基础。在对文献进行系统检索后，该评价共纳入了 73 项研究，并使用主题内容分析法对其进行了分析。对反思性叙述的​​分析导致了九个更高层次的主题的产生：反思性实践的过程和目的；道德实践；配角和表演者；从业者个性化；与客户的关系；文化意识; 与能力相关的焦虑；支持从业者发展；和评估从业者的有效性。该评论包括对未来研究的建议，例如使用叙事分析来进一步深入了解应用从业者的经验。我们还提供了实际意义，这些意义是根据从业者在不同发展阶段的具体需求量身定制的，包括增加实习从业者对批判性反思的参与，并与“批判性朋友”互动，以促进新合格从业者的元反思过程.
