The recognition of psychiatric, psychological, and psychotherapeutic interventions in maintaining mental health is well-established. However, the significance of fostering, sustaining, and restoring mental well-being through physical culture is frequently overlooked. Physical culture encompasses various forms of physical activity, including those in physical education, physiotherapy, recreation, sports, and tourism. These organized physical activities play a pivotal role in supporting psychiatric, psychological, and psychotherapeutic interactions, serving to counteract and treat disorders while upholding mental health.
In light of this, we extend an invitation to researchers across disciplines such as physical culture, medical science, health science, psychology, pedagogy, sociology, philosophy, ethics, society, and family sciences to contribute their papers to this Collection.
The goal of this Research Topic is to present contemporary research delving into the impact of physical activity—from physical education, physiotherapy, recreation, sports, and tourism—on mental health. Through this initiative, we aim to disseminate research within the field of physical culture sciences, promoting mental health particularly in the challenging times that continually test our mental endurance. We firmly believe in the contribution of regular physical activity to the maintenance of mental health, and this Research Topic seeks to gather evidence supporting the issues described above.
We aim to curate a diverse collection of articles, including Original Research, Reviews, Opinions, and Communications, covering one or more of the following themes:
• Education for health
• Maintenance of health through active tourism and recreation
• Mental education through sports
• Mental hygiene
• Mental training
• Motor skills and health
• Personality
• Physical activity and health
• Physical and mental rehabilitation
• Positive effects of sports activity in the areas of combat sports, individual sports, team sports
• Practical sports psychology
• Theoretical sports psychology
We aim to create a comprehensive platform for exploring the intricate relationship between physical culture and mental health. We eagerly anticipate contributions that will deepen our understanding and contribute to the holistic well-being of individuals in our society.
Information for authors: Please be aware that this research topic is cross-listed with multiple journals and sections. When submitting your manuscripts, please ensure that they fall within the scope of the journal and sections to which you are submitting. Should your manuscript fall outside the defined scope of the chosen section or journal, our team will promptly contact you to make the transfer to the corresponding journal /section
