The purpose of this research was to develop a questionnaire to assess the multidimensional construct of teamwork in sport and to examine various aspects of validity related to that instrument. A preliminary questionnaire was first created, and feedback on this instrument was then obtained from a sample of team-sport athletes (n = 30) and experts in sport psychology (n = 8). A modified version of the questionnaire was then completed by 607 athletes from 48 teams, and 5 multilevel confirmatory factor analyses were conducted to examine the structural properties of data derived from this instrument. Evidence of adequate model-data fit along with measurement reliability was obtained for each of the 5 models. Taken together, the results from this research provide support for the content, substantive, and structural aspects of construct validity for data derived from the 66-item Multidimensional Assessment of Teamwork in Sport.

Article Synopsis
- There is ongoing uncertainty about what makes a competitive applicant for orthopaedic surgery residency, so researchers analyzed data from 2020 to 2023 to identify crucial traits and metrics.
- Factors such as standardized exam scores, research experience, and extracurricular involvement were examined alongside subjective comments from applicants to determine their importance in the matching process.
- The study found that top-performing applicants, particularly those in the first quartile of their class and with high board exam scores, were significantly more likely to match, highlighting the value of both quantifiable metrics and personal attributes in residency applications.
The effects of stress on surgical performance: a systematic review.

Department of Surgery, Royal Cornwall Hospitals NHS Trust, Truro, UK.
Introduction: Acute stress, the psychological response to short-term challenging stimuli, is frequently encountered in the high-pressure environment of the operating theatre. Surgeon stress is associated with deterioration in surgical performance, surgical team working and compromised patient safety. Given these concerns, the aim of this review was to understand the impact of acute stress on surgical performance in technical and non-technical domains as well as patient outcomes.

This narrative review examines the relationship between dopamine-related genetic polymorphisms, personality traits, and athletic success. Advances in sports genetics have identified specific single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in dopamine-related genes linked to personality traits crucial for athletic performance, such as motivation, cognitive function, and emotional resilience. This review clarifies how genetic variations can influence athletic predisposition through dopaminergic pathways and environmental interactions.
