“…One index was the Athletic Rehabilitation Dedication Scale (ARDS) which is used to measure the level of dedication of athletes during rehabilitation. The validity of this scale was confirmed by us in prior studies15, 19, 30 ) . This scale is based on Brewer’s Sports Injury Rehabilitation Scale (SIRAS)31 ) and comprises three items (Participation: “I always participate in scheduled rehabilitation sessions unless there is a reason.” Completion: “I complete the scheduled athletic rehabilitation program for each session.” Effort: “I give my best effort during athletic rehabilitation assignments.”).…”

“…Subjects of this study fulfilled either criteria a and c, or b and c. These qualifying standards have also been used in previous studies7, 19, 28,29,30 ) . First, the objectives of this study were explained to the sports psychologist, team coach, team manager, or doctor at five universities in Japan with a physical education/athletics department.…”

“…Before compiling the question items for the AIPAS, the nature of injury acceptance among athletes was studied in previous studies 14, 15, 28,29,30. ) We attempted to understand injury acceptance from the perspective of “detachment coping.” “Detachment coping” is divided into “Emotionally coming to terms with the injury situation” and “Focusing on rebuilding a new lifestyle” following a sports injury.…”

“…These three items were adapted by Fisher et al32 ) , Duda et al33 ) , Lampton et al34 ) and Daly et al35 ) from a third-person rating scale to a self-rating scale for Rehabilitation Adherence. Previous studies have found a positive correlation between injury acceptance and athletic rehabilitation dedication7, 8, 13,14,15,16,17, 19, 29, 30 ) , enabling us to use this scale as an external index to test the validity of the AIPAS. The response format for the ARDS was altered to the 7-point Likert scale (1: not at all~7: very much) and the correlation between the ARDS and AIPAS was calculated.…”

“…For athletes that depend on competitive sports to confirm their own identity, the psychological process following injury is filled with grief and is characterized by ego defense mechanisms15 ) . For as long as these injured athletes are consumed with their injured bodies and the negative psychosocial effects from physical injury, we cannot expect them to actively pursue athletic rehabilitation15, 19 ) . What makes rehabilitation possible is the release of emotional grief by the injured athlete and control over their own emotions which enables acknowledgement of the seriousness of the injury and limitations resulting from the injury7, 8 ) .…”

[Purpose] The world of competitive sports has its own unique subculture which at times works towards covering up psychological problems faced by athletes with injuries. The purpose of this study was to develop an “Athletic Injury Psychological Acceptance Scale (AIPAS)” to screen athletes for serious psychological problems resulting from injury. [Subjects] A total of 189 subjects responded to the survey, of which 168 (mean age= 19.93 years; average number of days unable to participate in sports= 71.84 days, SD = 88.01 days) valid responses were subjected to analysis. [Methods] A provisional version of the AIPAS was created from question items based on face-to-face subject interviews and content validity testing by specialists. In order to test criterion-related validity of the AIPAS, subjects were asked to complete indices that would serve as an external criterion. For this purpose, indices that measure athletic rehabilitation dedication and time perspective were designed. [Results] Item analysis of the provisional AIPAS was conducted to confirm the discrimination of each item. Exploratory factor analysis identified “Self-motivation” and “Focus on the Present” as two factors of the provisional scale. Confirmatory factor analysis supported these results. The Cronbach’s alpha was used to measure the internal consistency. Since α=0.81, the reliability of the scale was confirmed. A significant correlation was found between AIPAS and external indices, indicating criterion-related validity. [Conclusion] AIPAS is a reliable and valid scale composed of two subscales.

Suppressing the expression of negative emotions caused by injuries prevents athletes from fully accepting their sports injuries. However, acceptance is maintained and promoted when positive reappraisal and suppression are synchronized. This study analyzes individual-differences affecting the use of these two emotion regulation behaviors. A questionnaire consisting of personal variables regarding athletic identity, commitment to sports ethics and emotion regulation behavior scale for suppression and positive reappraisal was conducted on athletes with previous injuries (N = 180). A model estimate using correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis was examined utilizing structural equation modeling. The results indicated that commitment to sports ethics and athletic identity promoted the suppression of expressiveness toward negative emotions and positive reappraisal. In contrast, difficulty describing feelings facilitated suppression and hindered positive reappraisal. These results seem to suggest that commitment to sports ethics and athletic identity might facilitate suppression and positive reappraisal, as well as function as variables maintaining and promoting accepting sports injuries. On the other hand, difficulties in describing feelings might lead to abnormal responses caused by accumulated negative emotions due to the suppression of expressing negative emotions and lack of positive reappraisal promotion.

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to examine the causal relationships between the psychological acceptance process of athletic injury and athletic-rehabilitation behavior. [Subjects] One hundred forty-four athletes who had injury experiences participated in this study, and 133 (mean age = 20.21 years, SD = 1.07; mean weeks without playing sports = 7.97 weeks, SD = 11.26) of them provided valid questionnaire responses which were subjected to analysis. [Methods] The subjects were asked to answer our originally designed questionnaire, the Psychosocial Recovery Factor Scale (PSRF-S), and two other pre-existing scales, the Athletic Injury Psychological Acceptance Scale and the Athletic-Rehabilitation Dedication Scale. [Results] The results of factor analysis indicate “emotional stability”, “social competence in the team”, “temporal perspective”, and “communication with the teammates” are factors of the PSRF-S. Lastly, the causal model in which psychosocial recovery factors are mediated by psychological acceptance of athletic injury, and influence on rehabilitation behaviors, was examined using structural equation modeling (SEM). The results of SEM indicate that the factors of emotional stability and temporal perspective are mediated by the psychological acceptance of the injury, which positively influences athletic-rehabilitation dedication. [Conclusion] The causal model was confirmed to be valid.
