Interaction of athletes' resilience and coaches' social support on the stress-burnout relationship: A conjunctive moderation perspective (2016, methodology): “Also, the CD-RISC2 was developed in non-sport settings, and measures individual traits just as the original 25-item CD-RISC did (Sarkar & Fletcher, 2013, p.272).”
Validity and Reliability of the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC) in Competitive Sport (2016, background): “…each factor not clearly matching ormaking full conceptual sense, and the existence of only two questions tapping the spirituality dimension of resilience is problematic (e.g., Ahern et al., 2006; Pangallo, Zibarras, Lewis, & Flaxman, 2015; Sarkar & Fletcher, 2013; Windle, Bennett, & Noyes, 2011).”
Stressing the relevance of resilience: a systematic review of resilience across the domains of sport and work (2017, background): “This was highlighted in a recent review of sport-specific measures of resilience by Sarkar and Fletcher (2013), who identified three pivotal components that researchers need to separately assess when measuring psychological resilience: adversity, positive adaptation, and protective factors.”
Positive personality-trait-like individual differences in athletes from individual- and team sports and in non-athletes (2016, unknown): “Resilience, when considered as a dispositional trait (for a discussion on whether resilience should be better considered as a trait or a process, see Sarkar & Fletcher, 2013), can be defined as a constellation of characteristics that enable individuals to adapt to the circumstances they encounter…”
Mental fortitude training: An evidence-based approach to developing psychological resilience for sustained success (2016, background): “The initial phase of training should seek to determine how individuals react in pressurized situations and utilize a range of diagnostics including self-report, observation, and physiological indices (cf. Sarkar & Fletcher, 2013).”
Psychological resilience in sport: A review of the literature and implications for research and practice (2015, background): “The modelling strategies previously suggested will not be effective without first constructing a valid and reliable scale to measure resilience in sport (Fletcher & Sarkar, 2012; Sarkar & Fletcher, 2013).”
Psychological resilience in sport performers: a review of stressors and protective factors (2014, methodology): “…enhance researchers’ knowledge of measuring resilience in athletes, and in line with a recommendation by Gucciardi, Jackson, Coulter, and Mallett (2011), we recently reviewed psychometric issues in resilience research and considered the implications for sport psychology (Sarkar & Fletcher, 2013).”
