Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Structural Equation Analysis of the Role of Appearance-Related Self-Conscious Emotions on Flow in Athletes: the Mediating Role of Autonomous Motivation(Routledge, 2025) Urfa, O.; Aşçi, F.Hulya; Karadağ, DuyguThe current study aimed to investigate the mediating role of autonomous motivation in the relationship between appearance-related self-conscious emotions (shame, guilt, authentic pride, and hubristic pride) and flow in athletes. The sample consisted of 217 athletes (57.6% male) aged between 18 and 39 years old (Mage = 21.77, SD = 4.53). The cross-sectional data were analyzed using structural equation modelling with bootstrapping method. Regarding direct effects, autonomous motivation was negatively correlated with shame and hubristic pride and positively correlated with authentic pride. Flow was positively related to autonomous motivation and hubristic pride. Regarding indirect effects, flow was negatively predicted by shame and hubristic pride and positively predicted by authentic pride through autonomous motivation. These results highlight the importance of autonomous motivation in the relationship between self-conscious emotions and flow in athletes. In particular, shame and authentic pride predicted flow fully through autonomous motivation. In conclusion, autonomous motivation mediates the relationship between self-conscious emotions and flow in athletes. We therefore speculate that improving autonomous motivation in sport psychology studies may help improve flow in athletes. © 2025 Informa UK Limited, trading as Taylor & Francis Group.Article Citation - Scopus: 1Presidents’ President: Erdoğan-Centred Crony Capitalism and Football Governance in Turkey(Routledge, 2025) Irak, D.; Erturan-Öğüt, E.This study seeks to investigate evidence of cronyism within the intricate network of individuals and entities involved in Turkey’s football industry, spanning financial, political, and football-related actors. Employing Social Network Analysis (SNA) as its primary methodology, our research aims to visually depict this network’s cronyism and provide comprehensive contextual information to enable sociological interpretations of the relationships among these actors. Our findings shed light on the complex entanglement of football management with various networks in Turkey, highlighting that these crony connections obscure the boundary between government and business, resulting in covert political manipulation of the football sector. This interference erodes football management’s autonomy through consistent autocratic regulations favouring crony business networks and indirectly violates international governance principles. Our research underscores that comprehending a football environment intertwined with business and politics requires acknowledging the extensive presence of crony capitalism and the necessity for transparency and autonomy within the football industry. © 2025 The Author(s).
