The aim of the present study was to explore whether there were any differences in the psychological content of practice between club-contracted and non-club-contracted physiotherapists when treating sports injuries. Eighty-seven certified physiotherapists (non-club contracted N = 42, club contracted N = 45) from the United Kingdom completed a modified version of the Athletic Training and Sport Psychology Questionnaire (ATSPQ). Results revealed significant between-group differences in psychological skills use and the importance of psychological skills knowledge. Non-club-contracted physiotherapists reported a higher use of improving social support and higher-order psychological skills (e.g., reducing depression, stress, and anxiety) and rated knowledge of these psychological skills to be more important whilst club-contracted physiotherapists reported a higher use of short-term goal settings. These findings suggest that non-club-based physiotherapists may approach the treatment of injured athletes in a different way to their club-based counterparts. Results suggest athletes treated outside of the club system may experience a different recovery process.
本研究的目的是探讨在治疗运动损伤时，签约俱乐部的物理治疗师与未签约俱乐部的物理治疗师在实践中的心理内容是否存在差异。来自英国的87名认证物理治疗师（未签约俱乐部的N = 42，签约俱乐部的N = 45）完成了一份修改版的《运动训练与运动心理学问卷》（ATSPQ）。结果显示，在心理技能的使用和心理技能知识的重要性方面，两组之间存在显著差异。未签约俱乐部的物理治疗师报告称，在改善社会支持和高阶心理技能（如减轻抑郁、压力和焦虑）方面的使用频率更高，并认为这些心理技能的知识更为重要，而签约俱乐部的物理治疗师则报告称在短期目标设定方面的使用频率更高。这些发现表明，非俱乐部的物理治疗师在治疗受伤运动员时的方式可能与俱乐部的同行不同。结果表明，在俱乐部系统之外接受治疗的运动员可能会经历不同的康复过程。
