This paper consists in a systematic review of the literature concerning the measurement of coping in athletes, based on the identification of the related instruments developed and adapted to the sporting context and their psychometric properties. Therefore, were explored the databases Scopus, Web of Science, PsycInfo, Scielo and Virtual Health Library to promote a systematization of the survey of articles published between 2008 and 2017. Thus, 65 empirical articles were identified with measuring instruments of the coping construct in sports, with an emphasis on competitive situations. Among this, 65 identified instruments, 10 were developed and adapted specially for athletes and presented good psychometric properties that ensured accuracy and reliability. It is imperative to highlight the need to expand the number of longitudinal and qualitative studies on coping in sports, as well as the development of instruments.

The advent of cinema brought with it its use as a propaganda device with which to transmit ideals and doctrines. As a result, newsreels and cinema documentaries were born with the aim of showing the «most relevant» news of the country and abroad, the former with a shorter duration. In this study, the Spanish NO-DO and «Sucesos Argentinos» are used as primary sources to interpret the images and imaginaries that were projected between 1943 and 1955 on female physical culture. The intention is to understand the official discourse of both political regimes on what Argentinean and Spanish society should be like, especially by questioning those meanings about women. In total, 69 issues of NO-DO and 14 editions of «Sucesos Argentinos» have been found which aim to show female physical culture in this period. The female physical culture shown in both newsreels was aimed at strengthening women’s bodies so that they could carry out their «natural functions» (mother, wife, housewife), as well as highlighting their «inferiority» in relation to men through lower impact activities and the homogenization of bodies through clothing, and the performance of the same exercises in synchrony. And all this in countries with different regimes, but which, in the end, coincided.
