About this Research Topic
This Research Topic is the second volume of the Research Topic 'Advances in Sports Science: Latest Findings and New Scientific Proposals'. Please see the first volume here.
In the realm of sports, precise measurement is crucial. Over the past 30 years, the scientific exploration of physical activity and sports has seen continuous growth. Enhancing athlete performance through evidence-based strategies and recommendations has become imperative.
Numerous sports and disciplines leverage empirical evidence to boost performance in competitions, including sports training, where both groups and individuals embrace novel methodologies and intervention proposals. Despite the expansive knowledge surrounding sports, there remains a need for more in-depth research. Established approaches like sports physiology, behavior analysis, performance analysis, sports psychology, innovative methodologies, the latest training proposals, and new statistical techniques must continue to evolve.
Concurrently, certain sports lack a robust scientific literature. This includes children and youth sports, adapted sports (parasports), and women's sports, all of which necessitate more extensive studies to solidify sports science.
The objectives of this research topic are twofold:
Firstly, to further consolidate a science around sports from multiple perspectives, encompassing sports physiology, technical and tactical behavior analysis, game systems, competition and performance analysis, sports psychology, sports rehabilitation, methodology, statistical analysis, coaching, and sports training analysis.
Secondly, to create a space for researchers to continue developing studies in areas that lack substantial scientific literature, such as children and youth sports (with a focus on new training proposals and performance analysis), women's sports (both individual and collective), adapted sports or parasports, any other sporting context or discipline currently lacking evidence, and psychological variables related to training and sports performance.
The Research Topic aims to compile research from experts in these diverse fields. Therefore, we invite researchers to submit the following types of articles: Original research articles, Clinical trials, Data reports, Hypothesis and theory, Study protocols, Systematic reviews, Case studies, and any other research or review directly related to the topic's objectives, supported by the journal.
