Pediatric Investigation, Volume 10, Issue 2, Page 114-124, April 2026.This study reveals a bidirectional association between self‐efficacy and various components of physical fitness, specifically cardiorespiratory fitness, lower body muscular fitness, and speed‐agility, in Spanish adolescents. Higher physical fitness levels predicted greater self‐efficacy, and conversely, higher self‐efficacy predicted physical fitness ...

Should more teams “trust the process” of tanking?
Contemporary Economic Policy, Volume 44, Issue 2, Page 408-425, April 2026.Abstract In many professional sport leagues, the worst‐performing teams receive higher probability of earning top draft picks. This provides teams incentives to purposefully lose, or “tank,” if they are not likely to contend for the playoffs or championships.

Hamstring Mechanics During Acceleration, Deceleration and Sidestep Cutting
Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT Hamstring strain injuries (HSI) are common in field‐based sports. Musculoskeletal modeling studies have been used to investigate hamstring mechanics during steady‐state running. Accelerative and decelerative running as well as change of direction actions, which are common mechanisms of HSI, have been largely overlooked.

Scandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2026.ABSTRACT It remains unclear whether people with traumatic‐onset patellofemoral pain (PFP_T) present with the same physical and non‐physical changes as people with gradual‐onset patellofemoral pain (PFP_A). In this cross‐sectional study, we aimed to compare clinical, biomechanical and muscle strength outcomes between people with PFP_T, people with PFP_A,
