“…Essays on the development of physiology and kinesiology as well as an account of the evolution of scientific strength measurement devices also graced the journal (Barton, 1943;Braun,1941;Hunsicker & Donnelly, 1955). Homages to the founding fathers and mothers of physical education popped up on occasion (Bennett, 1948;Hunter, 1959;Skarstrom, 1941). A few histories of particular sports and sporting cultures also made it into the RQ, including an investigation of the recreations of the Old South and an exploration of whether ancient Greeks and Romans played football (Fink, 1952;Young, 1944).…”

The accounts of our subdiscipline's contributions to The Research Quarterly are similar. Sociology, history, and philosophy operate at some distance from the biological sciences. The research methods used by scholars in each of our domains address distinctive issues related to objectivity and, thus, validity. Our contributions to The Research Quarterly have been modest, numbering about 240 articles, or slightly over 3 per volume. In short, we have enjoyed only a minority presence in The Research Quarterly during its 75 years of existence. Our stories, however, also diverge in important ways. Our research methods are different, and our relationships with our parent disciplines are not the same. In addition, our perceptions of The Research Quarterly as a potential repository for our respective publications vary considerably.
