| Abstract: | Abstract Sport scientists have started to amass a small body of knowledge on loss in sport. Viewing sport retirement from a loss framework is particularly appropriate when examining transitions out of disability sport because athletes with disabilities are at risk for facing unique losses when they lease sport (Martin, 1996; Wheeler, Malone, & Steadward, 1996). The purpose of this article is to discuss loss experiences in disability sport from psychological, social, and physiological perspectives. |
