Is identity leadership provided by coaches and athlete leaders associated with performance? A cross‐cultural study in football teams
The social identity approach to leadership contends that the most effective leaders represent, advance, create, and embed a shared social identity (i.e., a sense of ‘we’ and ‘us’) within the groups they lead. Building on previous research, our study examines whether the perceived identity leadership of coaches and athlete leaders is associated with a range of key performance indicators (notably team and individual performance and effort) through …
The role of identity leadership in promoting athletes' mental health
Identity leadership is the process through which leaders create, advance, represent, and embed a sense of ‘we’ and ‘us’ (i.e., social identities) within the teams they lead.

Additionally, the study explores the generalisability of these relati…
Participation in physical activity and sport in adolescent girls from Middle Eastern backgrounds
The findings of the current study show the complex relationships between family, religion, and culture when promoting physical and sport participation. Such factors highlight the need to develop culturally tailored physical activity interventions that consider the perceived barriers and facilitators for adolescent girls' participation from Middle Eastern backgrounds
Unhealthy Lifestyle Behaviours and Psychological Distress
Individual associations between lifestyle behaviours and mental health have been established; however, evidence on the clustering of these behaviours and the subsequent impact on mental health is limited. The purpose of this study was to examine cross-sectional and longitudinal associations between combined unhealthy lifestyle behaviours (physical activity, sitting time, sleep duration, processed meat consumption, vegetable consumption, fruit con…
Physical activity interventions among culturally and linguistically diverse populations
Venous thromboembolism risk screening, training and provider awareness in Australian residential aged care facilities
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the geriatric post-surgical population, and its prevention is a public health priority. The aim of this study was to assess the use of VTE risk screening and training protocols, and VTE awareness in the Australian residential aged care sector. A cross-sectional survey was conducted that was directed at facility and policy managers of community aged care facilities with …
Double Discourse
Obesity in Australia is rising rapidly, and is a major public health concern. Obesity increases the risk of breast cancer and worsens associated outcomes, yet breast screening participation rates in Australia are suboptimal and can be lower in higher risk, obese women. This study qualitatively explored barriers to breast screening participation in obese women in Australia. In-depth interviews (n = 29), were conducted with obese women (body mass i…
