Gender-specific psychosocial stressors influencing mental health among women elite and semielite athletes: a narrative review.

Compared with men athletes, women athletes are at greater risk of a range of psychological stressors that contribute to health concerns and mental health disorders, which can impact their career satisfaction and longevity. In order to address and improve the mental health of women athletes, it is necessary to simultaneously tackle the gender specific psychosocial stressors that contribute to mental health outcomes.

Sport parenting during the COVID-19 pandemic: Perceptions of parents and youth in Australia.
