Resource description
Project/Report Title: The effects of permitted forms of performance enhancement on determinants of doping in UK student-athletes
Researcher(s)/author(s): Ian Boardley
Institution(s): University of Birmingham (UK)
Language: English
Year of funding/approval: 2016
The current project aims to answer the following research questions:
- What permitted forms of performance enhancement are commonly used by student athletes?
- How can permitted forms of performance enhancement be presented most effectively to portray them as alternatives to – rather than precursors for – doping?
- What are the effects over time of using nutritional supplements, medicines and performance enhancing technology on explicit functional and moral doping attitudes and automatic doping preferences in student athletes?
- Does disparity between explicit functional and moral doping attitudes influence doping moral disengagement in student athletes over time?
