Abstract:This study aimed to assess the psychometric properties of a modified sport psychology instrument in firefighters and explore the associations between psychological skills and coping strategies. Career firefighters completed an online survey assessing psychological skills and coping strategies.

“…ACSI has been utilized in previous studies to investigate the association between coping skills and current hip pain and function scores in ballet dancers [8]. Overall, the modified ACSI instrument's good psychometric qualities give convincing preliminary evidence of the instrument's appropriateness, meaningfulness, and utility in firefighters [9]. In a prior study, ACSI was used to look at the relationship between dispositional accomplishment goal orientation and coping abilities in elite South African quadriplegic wheelchair rugby players [5].…”
