Committee Reports:
We recognize the fact that journalists work under considerable pressure to obtain current and timely information, to meet deadlines and to produce work that informs and educates. We also realize that speedy access to experts enhances your ability to function more effectively. We, the members of NASSS, make our services available to you in the hope that our cooperation will result in mutual benefit for all. We appreciate the work that you are doing and we hope that you will find this service to be of value to your work.
Our members reside mainly in the U.S. and Canada, but in recent years, the scope of our research interests has been broadened by a healthy increase in membership from Australia, New Zealand and from various European and Asian nations. The range of research expertise in the organization is impressive, and is reflected in the papers that are presented at our annual meetings, in articles published in various scholarly journals, and in the numerous books that our members have authored and edited. In short, the membership of NASSS is a rich resource for journalists and others who are hoping to draw from a growing body of social-scientific research on sport and related physical activities. Nearly all of the scholars listed in this Directory have published articles in peer-reviewed scholarly journals and/or have authored books on the topics they are listed under. We should stress, however, that any individual scholar's statements or opinions do not necessarily express the views or opinions of NASSS as an organization.
