The Journal of Applied Sport & Exercise Psychology (Zeitschrift für Sportpsychologie) is the official publication of the German Association for Sport Psychology (Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Sportpsychologie in Deutschland e.V.) and also serves as the organ of the German Psychological Society (DGPs). It provides information on sport psychology research, experiences from the practice of sport psychology, as well as the implementation and application of sport psychological insights and methods in competitive sports, schools, health, and recreational sports. The bilingual journal is aimed at both researchers and practitioners involved in sports activities: coaches at all levels, teachers, therapists, supervisors, organizers, officials, and other interested individuals. 

Regularly, there is a personnel change in the editorial board of the Journal of Applied Sport and Exercise Psychology (JASEP) / Zeitschrift für Sportpsychologie. From the applications received, a selection committee consisting of representatives from the German Association for Sport Psychology (asp), the German Psychological Society (DGPs), JASEP, and the publisher Hogrefe has appointed the following individuals as new editors:
Dr. Julian Fritsch (Frankfurt), Prof. Dr. Franziska Lautenbach (Berlin), Dr. Kathrin Staufenbiel, and Prof. Dr. Kathrin Wunsch (Heidelberg & Karlsruhe).

Prof. Dr. Stefanie Klatt (Cologne), Prof. Dr. Daniel Memmert (Cologne, managing editor), and Dr. Geoffrey Schweizer (Heidelberg) will continue their work as editors. 

We would like to thank Prof. Dr. Chris Englert (Frankfurt), Prof. Dr. Thorsten Weidig (Hamburg), and Assoc. Prof. Svenja Anna Wolf (Tallahassee, USA), who will be leaving the editorial board of JASEP at the end of 2024 (in alphabetical order), for their outstanding work in recent years!
