“…Gatterer et al [13] revealed that the social emotion is an important preventive factor in anti-doping efforts that cultivate a shared sense of responsibility to remain clean of abuse of doping agents and emphasize the social analogy in this era. Accordingly, the challenge of developing a good global anti-doping agenda requires acceptance of doping as a problem by all related associations such as sport organizations, athletes, and public authorities [14].…”

Background: Regarding increasing and concerning worldwide trends of doping and lack of definite information about contributing factors in this era, this study was performed to determine the emotional intelligence in athletes with doping history in comparison with general population. Methods and materials: In this case-control study 30 subjects were enrolled including two groups of professional athletes with doping history and general population. In each group 15 subjects were present. The emotional intelligence was assessed by Bar-On Emotional Questionnaire. Results: The highest and lowest total scores in athletes group were 401 and 197 and in normal population group 410 and 243 were highest and lowest obtained scores and there was significant difference between total scores of two groups (P=0.001), and also in some subscale items including stress tolerance, optimism, self-regard, impulse control, and assertiveness (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Totally, according to the obtained results in this study, it may be concluded that there is significantly lower emotional intelligence in athletes with doping history in comparison with general population.

“…There are many studies on health damage and violations of anti-doping legislation Woolf, 2020). However, to be correctly interpreted -and fought -doping must also be seen as a cultural and educational problem (Isidori, 2017) and is studied as an ethical problem that has medical and legal riots Barkoukis et al, 2019).…”

“…For the reasons discussed above, once understood the reasons that push young athletes to take drugs it is necessary to draw a specific educational protocol. Many scholars have pointed out that almost 50 years ago students complained about the quality of anti-doping education due to the excessive technicality used and inappropriate argument for the recipients (Woolf et al, 2020). Another relevant problem is the lack of homogeneity of the educational campaigns promoted and the lack of coordination between organizationssporting and non -regional national and international .…”

Introduction: Substances and methods capable of improving athletic performance have been one of the greatest concerns in elite sport community. It is a serious danger to sport and health. The teacher, coach and educator play an important role in the "physically" training of educated people and in culture of health promotion. Methodology: The study combines a bibliographic research about education importance in doping prevention and the Italian data analysis in doping spread for attention among young athletes (<19). The bibliographic sources were identified on Scopus, PubMed and ScienceDirect. The data relating about doping spread were extrapolated by reports of the Italian Ministry of Health. The time frame considered from 2018 (latest available data) to 2013. Results: The available data show that 2014 had the highest number of positives (58) and that, starting from that year, the doped athletes number was significantly lower up to 13 in 2018. On young people <19 an almost irrelevant positives number can be seen. Even in 2014 the positives number was 0. Conclusion: This study shows data on the doping prevalence and the result of WADA's identification of educational programs and research on social prevention as strategic priorities for the development of evidence-based anti-doping education.
