TL;DR: In this paper, a revised form of the ATSSPCQ, the sport psychology attitudes - Revised sport psychology assessment questionnaire (SPA-R), was developed and administered to 533 athletes (M = 18.03 +/- 2.71).
Abstract: Exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to develop a revised form of the Attitudes Toward Seeking Sport Psychology Consultation Questionnaire (ATSSPCQ; Martin, Wrisberg, Beitel, & Lounsbury, 1997). The 50-item ATSSPCQ was administered to 533 athletes (M = 18.03 +/- 2.71). Exploratory alpha factor analysis with varimax rotation produced four factors: (a) stigma tolerance, (b) confidence in sport psychology consultation, (c) personal openness, and (d) cultural preference. The new questionnaire, the Sport Psychology Attitudes - Revised farm (SPA-R), was then administered to 379 United States, 234 United Kingdom, and 443 German athletes (M = 20.37 +/- 5.13). Confirmatory factor analysis demonstrated the factorial validity of the four-factor model for the SPA-R for male and female athletes, late adolescent and adult athletes, and athletes from different countries. Psychometric characteristics of the SPA-R are described and implications related to sport psychology consultation and research are discussed.
