Yu-Kai Chang and Alessandro Quartiroli’s edited collection Physical Activity, Exercise, and Mental Health: An International Approach to Research and Practice (Routledge) delivers contemporary international perspectives on the critical relationship between physical activity, exercise, and mental health. Our reviewer is clinical psychologist Emily Hindman, and her knowledgeable review shows that while physical activity often benefits mental health, its application needs to consider individual differences, psychological processes, social and cultural context, and the circumstances in which activity is undertaken.

The purpose of JTPE is to communicate national and international research and stimulate discussion, study, and critique of teaching, teacher education, and curriculum as these fields relate to physical activity in schools and sport. The Forum Editor’s pick from the current issue: Physical Education Teacher Experiences Through the Lens of a Pandemic: Putting a Spotlight on Teacher Beliefs, Practices, Emotional Fragility, and Well-Being by Kelly L. Simonton, Todd E. Layne, Boone Brown, Keith Loupe.
