- A lifespan perspective on the dual career of elite male athletes (2015, methodology): “Third, as a retrospective method has also its limitations (e.g., recall bias) (Kerr & Dacyshyn, 2000), a longitudinal approach could be more appropriate although at the same time less conceivable as it would presume that the researchers would be able to predict from the beginning of their sport…”
- Abandoning The Performance Narrative: Two Women's Stories of Transition from Professional Sport (2009, background): “…research exploring athletes’ prospective views of retirement (e.g., Torregrosa, Boixadó’s Valiente, & Cruz, 2004), as well as research taking a retrospective view (e.g., Kerr & Dacyshyn, 2001), by providing an in-depth account that spans life before, during, and after withdrawal from sport.”
- Investigating Elite End-of-Athletic-Career Transition: A Systematic Review (2016, background): “Although researchers have thoroughly examined the consequences (e.g., Alfermann et al., 2004; Dimoula et al., 2013; Stambulova et al., 2007) and factors (e.g., Kerr & Dacyshyn, 2000) of retirement, the transition from sport has been predominantly approached from a deficit perspective.”
- A developmental perspective on transitions faced by athletes (2004, background): “For example, female gymnasts discontinue their sport between 15 and 19 years of age (Kerr & Dacyshyn, 2000).”
- Athletes' career transition out of sport: a systematic review (2013, background): “…the retired athletes experienced a loss of identity when they had a strong athletic identity at the time of their sport career termination (e.g., Kerr & Dacyshyn, 2000; Lally, 2007), and they needed a longer period of time to adjust to post-sport life (e.g., Grove et al., 1997; Warriner &…”
- Elite Female Swimmers' Experiences of Emotional Abuse Across Time (2008, background): “Likewise, Kerr and Dacyshyn (2000) report that retired gymnasts described specific coaching behaviours as “normal” and “expected” during their athletic careers, but relabeled them as abusive when retired and removed from the elite sport domain.”
- A meta-study of athletic identity research in sport psychology: Current status and future directions (2016, background): “In studying retirement experiences of female gymnasts, Kerr and Dacyshyn (2000) illustrated how intensive engagement in elite sport hindered young athletes’ role experimentation (the specific developmental task of adolescence), thus leading into identity foreclosure.”
- The Effect of a Life Development Intervention on Sports Career Transition Adjustment (2005, methodology): “Both supportive and counseling strategies were used in this intervention, as the transition out of sport following career termination was seen a transitional process rather than as an isolated event (Kerr & Dacyshyn, 2000).”
- Entry into Elite Sport: A Preliminary Investigation into the Transition Experiences of Rookie Athletes (2008, background): “In addition, several comprehensive conceptual models of the adaptation of athletes’ transition out of elite sport have been proposed ( Kerr & Dacynshyn, 2000 ; Taylor & Ogilvie, 1998 ).”
- The Retirement Experiences of Elite Female Gymnasts: Self Identity and the Physical Self (2008, methodology): “Accordingly, identity conflict has been strongly associated with retirement from elite gymnastics (Kerr & Dacyshyn, 2000; Lavallee & Robinson, 2007).”
- ‘We haven’t got a seat on the bus for you’ or ‘all the seats are mine’: narratives and career transition in professional golf (2009, background): “Research suggests that withdrawal from sport can have powerful and profound effects on identity, sense of self and psychological well-being (Sparkes 1998, Webb et al. 1998, Kerr and Dacyshyn 2001).”
