Problems in Sports

[edit | edit source]

The problems in sports (PS) outcomes look at the unwelcome or harmful issues that arise in sport.

There are four problems in sports outcomes:

  • PS1: Discuss athlete response to stress and chronic injury.
  • PS2: Examine reasons for using drugs in sport.
  • PS3: Discuss effects of drug use in sport.
  • PS4: Compare models of causes and prevention of burnout.

Note that any example responses are not necessarily worth full marks, but exist simply to provide an idea of how an example looks.
