This study aimed to review the existing literature concerning the psychological variables of CrossFit participants.
This review followed the PRISMA guidelines and was documented in the PROSPERO registry (CRD42018091177). Six electronic databases (SCOPUS, PubMed, SPORTDiscus, Web of Science, EMBASE, and Cochrane) were searched from their inception through July 2020. The methodological quality of the studies was assessed.
Thirty-four studies met the inclusion criteria. We observed an increase in satisfaction, clinical addiction, and enjoyment among participants related to exercise, social improvement, and high intrinsic motivation to participate for the purpose of enjoyment, challenge, and affiliation. Perceptions of effort were high among CrossFit participants. Some studies found that the reaction time was impaired after the CrossFit session, whereas others found no changes in mental health, self-esteem, and well-being after training.
Adherence and maintenance of the practice of CrossFit are related to psychological variables such as motivation and satisfaction of basic psychological needs. CrossFit participants demonstrated high perception of effort, intrinsic motivation, and reasons for practice such as enjoyment, challenge, and affiliation. The quality assessment demonstrated the need for more detail in the methods section of future investigations. Additional high-quality studies are needed to investigate the effects of CrossFit training on the mental health of participants.
本研究旨在回顾有关CrossFit参与者心理变量的现有文献。
本综述遵循PRISMA指南，并在PROSPERO注册库（CRD42018091177）中备案。检索了六个电子数据库（SCOPUS、PubMed、SPORTDiscus、科学网、EMBASE和Cochrane），检索时间从各数据库建库起至2020年7月。对研究的方法学质量进行了评估。
34项研究符合纳入标准。我们观察到，参与者在运动、社交改善以及出于享受、挑战和归属感而参与的高度内在动机方面的满意度、临床成瘾性和愉悦感有所增加。CrossFit参与者对努力的认知较高。一些研究发现，CrossFit训练课后反应时间受损，而另一些研究则发现训练后心理健康、自尊和幸福感没有变化。
CrossFit训练的坚持和维持与动机和基本心理需求满意度等心理变量有关。CrossFit参与者表现出对努力、内在动机以及诸如享受、挑战和归属感等训练原因的高度认知。质量评估表明，未来研究的方法部分需要更详细的内容。需要更多高质量研究来调查CrossFit训练对参与者心理健康的影响。
