Career development and transitions of athletes : the International Society of Sport Psychology Position Stand Revisited
2020
This paper is a comprehensive update of the International Society of Sport Psychology (ISSP) Position Stand on career development and transitions of athletes issued a decade ago (Stambulova, Alfermann, Statler, & Côté, 2009, ISSP Position Stand: Career development and transitions of athletes.

Not All Academics Are Alike: First Validation of the Academics' Quality of Life at Work Scale (AQoLW)
2018
Background: Relating to the macro-level changes and the increasing complexity of the academic system, a growing number of studies began to investigate the perceived working context impact on well-being and job satisfaction of academics.
