“…Scores on the iPBI also correlate with scores on similar subscales of a corresponding measure of irrational beliefs-the shortened general attitude and belief scale (Lindner et al, 1999). The iPBI was developed for achievement contexts (Turner et al 2018a, b) and is used frequently to measure irrational beliefs in athletic samples (Jordana et al, 2020).…”

“…In sport, irrational beliefs are identified as an important risk factor for anxiety (Turner & Barker, 2013), low self-acceptance (Cunningham & Turner, 2016), fatigue (Turner & Moore, 2016), low resilience (Deen et al, 2017), depression (Chotpitayasunondh & Turner, 2019;Turner et al, 2019a, b), and poor athletic performance (Mesagno et al, 2020;Wood et al, 2017). A recent systematic review of the research concerning REBT with athletes indicates that REBT is especially useful in helping athletes to reduce anxiety (Jordana et al, 2020).…”

“…Recent recommendations state that the new criteria should take into account the conditions in the assessment of psychological structures (Ziegler & Horstmann, 2015); therefore, the irrational Performance Beliefs Inventory (iPBI; Turner, Allen, et al, 2018;Turner, Slater, et al, 2018) was developed and validated with athletes (Turner & Allen, 2018) as the first measure of irrational beliefs in performance domains such as sports, education, business, and the military. The iPBI has been used widely in REBT research involving athlete samples (Jordana et al, 2020). The iPBI has 28-items, comprising seven items for each of the four core irrational beliefs (e.g., Dryden & Branch, 2008).…”

“…Amidst the proliferation of REBT across various countries within the sports domain (Jordana et al, 2020), the iPBI has been translated and validated in languages other than English such as German (Chrysidis et al, 2020), Thai (Chotpitayasunondh & Turner, 2019, and Turkish (Urfa & Aşçı, 2018). This work is important because it allows irrational beliefs to be assessed more accurately (i.e., in line with contemporary theory) within the respective countries, and for the effectiveness of REBT to be monitored more rigorously, cross-culturally (Lega & Ellis, 2001).…”

This paper reports the development and initial validation of the Persian language Irrational Performance Beliefs Inventory (iPBI-Persian). The original iPBI was developed to provide a validated measure of the four core irrational beliefs of rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT) within performance-based samples, such as athletes. Data retrieved from 334 athletes (169 men, 165 women, Mage = 21.52 ± 4.00 years) were analyses using SPSS and LISREL software packages. After the linguistic and cross-cultural adaptation processes, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) results showed that six items did not have acceptable factor loadings. After removal of problem items, a 22-item version was developed (CFI = 0.96). The iPBI-Persian demonstrated excellent levels of reliability, with internal consistency and test–retest reliability, as well as construct validity. This paper indicates that the 22-item iPBI-Persian can be used as a self-assessment instrument to evaluate irrational performance beliefs in Iranian athlete samples.

“…Although many experiences in sport and exercise could potentially be explained in terms of their physical and physiological underpinnings, SEP researchers still rely heavily on more functional psychological variables that describe people ( Cross et al, 2014 ). For instance, concepts such body image ( Srismith et al, 2020 ), motivation ( Clancy et al, 2017 ), emotion ( Friesen et al, 2013 ), beliefs ( Jordana et al, 2020 ), and attitudes (e.g., toward doping; Morente-Sánchez and Zabala, 2013 ) are necessary to make sense of the uncountable interactions on a physical and physiological level in the human body.…”

The present work contains a personal perspective on what sport and exercise psychology (SEP) is today. It is a global synthesis of research about psychological aspects related to the context and practice of sport and exercise. The intended impact was to positively influence teaching SEP to students, to promote interdisciplinary research and practice, and to assist the development of SEP as an applied science by helping experts develop a more holistic view of the field. Over 650 theoretical and review articles about psychological concepts in connection to sport and exercise were read in the process of creating a conceptual model that reflects the essence of SEP and leads to a conceptualization of SEP based on research topics. The result was a knowledge map of SEP made up of four main research clusters: biopsychological descriptors, external variables, psychological skills, and applied SEP practice. In terms of interdisciplinarity, the present perspective on SEP suggests that sport and exercise can be used as a research paradigm or natural laboratory to study psychological aspects relevant to various scientific fields, and that sport and exercise can be used as a therapeutic framework in response to challenges that researchers and practitioners in these fields are typically addressing.

Against the backdrop of the COVID‐19 pandemic, workplace wellbeing is a key priority for employers. Severe market and health conditions continue to bring inevitable problems that could be reduced with the application of psychological interventions to prevent mental and physical health issues, making this study a highly pertinent and valuable contribution to the field. This paper reports the effects of a rational emotive behaviour therapy (REBT) programme on the irrational beliefs and emotional reactivity of 56 office‐based sales professionals located in the northwest region of the UK. A pre‐test, post‐test experimental design was utilised, and a mixed model ANOVA (repeated measures) was adopted to assess changes in mean differences concerning irrational beliefs and emotional reactivity at pre and post‐test stages for the intervention group, in comparison to a control group. Results indicate that those in the REBT group reported significant reductions in irrational beliefs and emotional reactivity, whilst those in the control group reported no such changes. It is recommended that future research studies consider utilizing a mixed methods design and focus on a strategic collaboration of organisational and individual level interventions for improving the psychological wellbeing and performance of sales personnel.
