Study Notes
PSE8 - Stress, Mental Health, and Wellbeing
- Stress, mental health, and wellbeing are key topics in sport and exercise psychology.
- Diagnostics for stress, mental health, and wellbeing are used in sport and exercise psychology.
- Coaching and counseling skills for stress management and improving mental health and wellbeing are essential.
Prevalence of Mental Illness in Athletes
- One in three athletes is affected by mental illness.
- Rates of anxiety and depression are higher in athletes compared to the general population.
- Specific disorders, such as anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder, occur at higher rates in athletes than in the general population.
- Substance abuse, including alcohol, is more prevalent among athletes.
- Suicide is a risk factor, with rates of suicide being significantly higher in athletes compared to the general population
What is Stress?
- Stress is a multifaceted physical and psychological response to a stressor.
- A stressor is an external force that acts on the body's biological system.
- Distress is a psychological reaction to stressors.
- Distress can involve emotional, cognitive, and behavioral responses.
- Stress disrupts physiological balance and may require physiological and behavioral adaptations to restore it.
Official Definition of Mental Health
- Mental health is a state of well-being in which the individual realizes his or her own abilities, can cope with normal stresses of life, and can work productively and fruitfully.
- The individual is able to make a contribution to his/her community and is able to adapt and respond when encountering challenges.
- Physical and mental health are intertwined.
Mental Health Spectrum
- A range of psychological states exists, from mental disorder to flourishing.
- A significant number of (particularly young) people are in a state of languishing.
Health as a Continuum
- Psychological well-being exists along a continuum.
- Health includes a range of psychological wellness/distress and effective/reduced functioning.
- Various states of health exist, from active illness to peak performance.
Classification Systems of Diseases and Mental Disorders
- The ICD-10—WHO's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems—categorizes diagnoses of mental and physical disorders.
- The DSM-5—APA's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders—categorizes mental health diagnoses.
What is Wellbeing?
- Psychological wellbeing is the state of one's life going well.
- Wellbeing is a combination of feeling good and effective functioning.
- It is not simply about positive emotions, but also includes engagement with one's potential and fulfilling one's purpose and relationship with others.
Drivers of Wellbeing
- Personality is a strong predictor of usual emotional style.
- Extraversion tends to be a positive predictor, while neuroticism negatively predicts wellbeing.
- Gender can impact wellbeing and mental ill-being.
- Age and social-economic well-being may be correlated, though a one-item assessment may not be accurate, and causality is still unclear.
- Socioeconomic factors, such as income and educational qualifications, may influence mental wellbeing. However, income inequality generally correlates negatively with wellbeing, while higher education level is generally associated with protective functions. Unemployment has been correlated with presence of psychological problems.
Theories and Models of Stress and Coping
- Stress theories and models are important for analyzing stress and coping responses.
- The stimulus-oriented approach to stress focuses on external events that cause stress. Examples include life-event theory using the SRRS rating scale to measure the intensity and duration.
- The reaction-oriented approach, including the General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS), emphasizes the body's nonspecific response to stressors.
Stress and Injury Model
- Physical and psychological factors contribute to sport injuries, often related to stress.
- The model shows how personality factors, stressors, and coping resources influence cognitive appraisal reactions and physiological changes; thus, impacting the risk of injury.
Theories and Models on How Physical Activity Affects Stress
- Regular physical activity influences the stress response system, reducing physiological stress responses.
- This may increase psychosocial resources and reduce the general stress response.
Physical Activity/Exercise and Affect
- Physical activity and exercise are often correlated with positive moods and affect.
- Aerobic exercise improves mood and reduces negative emotions like fatigue, confusion, anger, and tension.
- Experimental evidence supports the benefits of moderate exercise on psychological well-being.
Physical Activity/Exercise and Depression
- There is an inverse association between physical activity and depression.
- Accumulating 2.5 hours of brisk walking a week can significantly reduce the risk of depression.
- Higher levels of physical activity show only minor additional benefits.
- Exercise may decrease depression by regulating the monoamine system and the HPA axis.
Physical Activity/Exercise and Anxiety
- Exercise can reduce stress-related anxiety by increasing neurotransmitters within the central nervous system.
Psychological Antecedents of Sport Injury
- Physical factors largely cause sport injuries, but psychological factors may play a role.
- Perception of a threatening event and resulting anxiety can increase muscle tension and increase the risk of injury.
- The stress and injury model emphasizes the role of personality, stress history, and coping resources impacting the cognitive appraisal of stressful situations during sport.
Psychological Responses to Sport Injury
- Common responses to sport injuries include disbelief, denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.
- The 5-stage model is often criticized because many people do not follow this progression.
- Injured athletes often demonstrate symptoms of depression or exhibit emotional upheaval.
Psychological Antecedents of Sport Injury and Depression
- Research suggests that stress and anxiety are crucial factors in predicting injury risk, frequency, and severity in different sports.
- Studies show a correlation between psychological states and injury incidence.
Integrated Model of Psychological Response to Sport Injury and Rehabilitation
- Personality, stress history, coping resources, and interventions all influence athletes' stress responses, which affect injury likelihood
- The same factors influencing injury risk affect the psychological response to injury
Role of Sport Psychology in Sport Injury Process
- The phases of injury, rehabilitation, and return to full activity offer specific opportunities for support
- Sport psychology can play a crucial role in supporting successful injury recovery and rehabilitation.
Substance Use Disorder
- Substance use disorders (SUD) are conditions leading to clinically significant impairment.
- Numerous criteria may be observed, in which social and interpersonal difficulties are a significant feature.
- Individuals with reward seeking behavior and difficulty coping may develop SUD
Psychological Antecedents of Sport Injury—Empirical Evidence
- Athletes with low coping skills and social support may be at increased risk of injuries after significant life changes.
- Athletes with low self-esteem and pessimism, as well as persons with high levels of trait anxiety, are more likely to experience more athletic injuries.
- Stress and anxiety are prominent psychological factors affecting sport injuries.
GSU Studies I and II—Practical Implications
- Early detection of higher injury risk in participants of sport activities is critical
- Strategies for improving body awareness, concentration, and confidence may help prevent injuries.
Sport- and Movement Therapy in Psychiatric and Psychosomatic Disorders

- Clinical movement therapy differs from sport/exercise/lifestyle activities.
- Sport provides a therapeutic setting that can aid in addressing various psychological issues, such as anxiety or depression.
