“…This is in contrast to some past research (Turner & Barker, 2013) that standardized sessions across participants, unreflective of the idiosyncrasies of using REBT with athletes. The use of an idiographic single-case design in the current study is important because accountability through intervention evaluation is one of the most essential issues underpinning professional practice (Barker, Mellalieu, McCarthy, Jones, & Moran, 2013). Single-case experimental designs are advantageous because they more readily permit the intensive investigation of each subject and data from just a few subjects tell a story (Normand, 2016).…”

Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT) and its relationship with self-determined motivation has received scant research attention despite growing interest in the motivational effects of REBT with athletes. Recent evidence suggests that reductions in irrational beliefs brought about by REBT may facilitate increases in self-determined motivation. The current study seeks to replicate and build this initial research using an idiographic single-case design to assess the effects of one-to-one REBT on the irrational beliefs, self-determined motivation, vitality, and sleep quality of four amateur triathletes. Self-report data were collected prior to, during, and after the REBT intervention. Visual analysis revealed that reductions in irrational beliefs were met with concomitant increases in self-determined motivation, vitality, and sleep quality. Social validation data supported the visual analysis findings. This current study supports and extends research by offering further advances in our understanding of the potential relationships between REBT, self-determined motivation, and athlete wellbeing.

“…Las participantes recibieron la misma intervención, pero en diferentes momentos, con la finalidad de que los cambios en las variables objetivos pudieran ser atribuibles a la intervención, en lugar de a factores externos (Kazdin, 2011). En psicología del deporte se alienta a las investigadoras a desarrollar este tipo de diseños con la finalidad de ampliar el conocimiento sobre la efectividad de las intervenciones experimentales con uno o pocos casos, permitiendo evaluar de manera rigurosa los matices individuales y posibilitando el seguimiento del progreso durante el transcurso de la intervención (Barker et al, 2013;Normand, 2016).…”

Although many former elite athletes maintain healthy levels of physical activity after retirement, those who do not, put their health at greater risk than the general population as previous studies have shown. The purpose of this study was to design and implement a Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy intervention consisting of three 45-minute sessions aimed at the functionalization of beliefs, so that eight sedentary former elite athletes would recover the practice of healthy physical activity. Using an idiographic single-case, staggered multiple-baseline across participants research design, we collected information, before and after the intervention, regarding their motivations and dysfunctional beliefs through semi-structured interviews and an online questionnaire. The intervention was effective to re-engage seven of the eight participants to healthy physical activity. In addition, social validation allowed former elite athletes to express their opinion about the intervention experience, which was positively valued for helping them to (a) identify the cognitive, emotional, and behavioral consequences, (b) establish realistic goals, (c) reinterpret the concept of physical activity, (d) develop a more functional internal dialogue, and (e) transfer the knowledge acquired to other everyday situations. To promote change and adherence to healthy habits, it is key that, in addition to motivational aspects, professionals focus on cognitive aspects, and these interventions are potentially effective in achieving this. Aunque buena parte de las personas exdeportistas de elite mantienen niveles de actividad física saludable después de la retirada, aquellas que no lo hacen exponen su salud a un riesgo mayor que la población general según han mostrado estudios anteriores. El propósito de este trabajo fue diseñar e implementar una intervención en Terapia Racional Emotiva Conductual de tres sesiones de 45 minutos basadas en la funcionalización de creencias, para que ocho exdeportistas de élite sedentarios recuperaran la práctica de actividad física saludable. Siguiendo un diseño de caso único ideográfico con línea base múltiple escalonada entre participantes, se recopiló información sobre sus motivaciones y creencias disfuncionales antes y después de la intervención mediante entrevistas semi-estructuradas y un cuestionario en línea. La intervención fue eficaz para que siete de las ocho participantes recuperaran la práctica de actividad física saludable. Además, la validación social permitió a las exdeportistas expresar su opinión acerca de la experiencia de intervención, la cual fue valorada positivamente por ayudarles a: (a) identificar las consecuencias cognitivas, emocionales y conductuales, (b) establecer objetivos realistas, (c) reinterpretar el concepto de actividad física, (d) desarrollar un diálogo interno más funcional, y (e) transferir los conocimientos adquiridos a otras situaciones cotidianas. Para fomentar un cambio y una adherencia a hábitos saludables resulta clave que, además de los aspectos motivacionales, las profesionales incidamos en los aspectos cognitivos, y estas intervenciones son potencialmente efectivas para lograrlo. Embora muitos ex-atletas de elite mantenham níveis saudáveis de atividade física após a aposentadoria, aqueles que não colocam sua saúde em maior risco do que a população em geral, conforme estudos anteriores mostraram. O objetivo deste trabalho foi delinear e implementar uma intervenção em Terapia Racional Emotiva Comportamental de três sessões de 45 minutos baseadas na funcionalização de crenças, para que oito ex-atletas sedentários de elite recuperassem a prática de atividade física saudável. Seguindo um projeto de caso único ideográfico com base em várias camadas entre os participantes, as informações sobre suas motivações e crenças disfuncionais foram coletadas antes e depois da intervenção por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas e um questionário online. A intervenção foi eficaz em restaurar sete dos oito participantes à atividade física saudável. Além disso, a validação social permitiu que ex-atletas expressassem sua opinião sobre a experiência da intervenção, a qual foi positivamente valorizada por ajudá-los a (a) identificar as consequências cognitivas, emocionais e comportamentais, (b) estabelecer objetivos realistas, (c) reinterpretar os conceitos de atividade física; (d) desenvolver um diálogo interno mais funcional; e (e) transferir os conhecimentos adquiridos para outras situações cotidianas. Para promover a mudança e adesão a hábitos saudáveis, é fundamental que, além dos aspetos motivacionais, nós, profissionais, influenciamos os aspetos cognitivos, e essas intervenções são potencialmente eficazes para isso.

“…Readers will then be in a position to critically evaluate the adequacy of the study, as well as to replicate and validate the research. Clinicians and researchers who want guidance on how to design, conduct and analyse data for single-case experiments should consult any of the many current textbooks and reports (e.g., Barker, McCarthy, Jones, & Moran, 2011; Barlow et al, 2009; Gast & Ledford, 2014; Horner et al, 2005; Kazdin, 2011; Kennedy, 2005; Kratochwill et al, 2013; Kratochwill & Levin, 2014; Morgan & Morgan, 2009; Riley-Tillman & Burns, 2009; Vannest, Davis, & Parker, 2013), as well as recent special issues of journals (e.g., Journal of Behavioral Education in 2012, Remedial and Special Education in 2013, the Journal of School Psychology and Neuropsychological Rehabilitation in 2014, Aphasiology in 2015) and methodological quality recommendations (Horner et al, 2005; Kratochwill et al, 2013; Maggin et al, 2014; Smith, 2012; Tate et al, 2013b). …”

We developed a reporting guideline to provide authors with guidance about what should be reported when writing a paper for publication in a scientific journal using a particular type of research design: the single-case experimental design. This report describes the methods used to develop the Single-Case Reporting guideline In BEhavioural interventions (SCRIBE) 2016. As a result of 2 online surveys and a 2-day meeting of experts, the SCRIBE 2016 checklist was developed, which is a set of 26 items that authors need to address when writing about single-case research. This article complements the more detailed SCRIBE 2016 Explanation and Elaboration article (Tate et al., 2016) that provides a rationale for each of the items and examples of adequate reporting from the literature. Both these resources will assist authors to prepare reports of single-case research with clarity, completeness, accuracy, and transparency. They will also provide journal reviewers and editors with a practical checklist against which such reports may be critically evaluated. We recommend that the SCRIBE 2016 is used by authors preparing manuscripts describing single-case research for publication, as well as journal reviewers and editors who are evaluating such manuscripts. SCIENTIFIC ABSTRACT Reporting guidelines, such as the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) Statement, improve the reporting of research in the medical literature (Turner et al., 2012). Many such guidelines exist and the CONSORT Extension to Nonpharmacological Trials (Boutron et al., 2008) provides suitable guidance for reporting between-groups intervention studies in the behavioural sciences. The CONSORT Extension for N-of-1 Trials (CENT 2015) was developed for multiple crossover trials with single individuals in the medical sciences (Shamseer et al., 2015; Vohra et al., 2015), but there is no reporting guideline in the CONSORT tradition for single-case research used in the behavioural sciences. We developed the Single-Case Reporting guideline In BEhavioural interventions (SCRIBE) 2016 to meet this need. This Statement article describes the methodology of the development of the SCRIBE 2016, along with the outcome of 2 Delphi surveys and a consensus meeting of experts. We present the resulting 26-item SCRIBE 2016 checklist. The article complements the more detailed SCRIBE 2016 Explanation and Elaboration article (Tate et al., 2016) that provides a rationale for each of the items and examples of adequate reporting from the literature. Both these resources will assist authors to prepare reports of single-case research with clarity, completeness, accuracy, and transparency. They will also provide journal reviewers and editors with a practical checklist against which such reports may be critically evaluated.
