“…Ten of the 24 papers that examined stressors with sports coaches used quantitative methods. The Perceived Stress Scale (Cohen, Kamarck, & Mermelstein, 1983) was used in six of these studies (Georgios & Nikolaos, 2012;Kelley, Eklund, & Ritter-Taylor, 1999;Knight, Reade, Selzler, & Rodgers, 2013;Malinauskas, Malinauskiene, & Dumciene, 2010;Nikolaos, 2012;Tashman et al, 2010), the Coaching Issue Survey (Kelley & Baghurst, 2009) was deployed in two studies (Kelley, 1994;Kelley et al, 1999) Quantitative research has highlighted that coaches encounter a variety of stressors (e.g., lack of social support, role based and task based responsibilities, level of coaching, demographics, salary, contract, working hours, competition, and perfectionism) that are significantly associated with increased perceived stress among coaches (Hudson et al, 2013;Judge et al, 2015;Kellman, & Kallus, 1994;Knight et al, 2013;Tashman et al, 2010). The research also highlights that the stressors encountered may differ between genders.…”
