Abstract

The aim is to present the current situation of Physical Activity and Sport Sciences (PASS) journals in Spain. The inventory of Spanish journals is updated and several basic editorial characteristics, such as longevity, periodicity, place of publication, editorial institution and support, and type of editorial format are analyzed. The journals´ circulation in national and international databases and internet dissemination (based on accessibility, content and added services) are also studied. We conclude that PASS is still a young field that has not yet consolidated its academic presence, as shown by the basic editorial characteristics of it scientific and technical journals. Nonetheless, these journals have seen a significant improvement in their database indexing and internet presence in recent years.
