This study presents a subgroup analysis of previously published data (see Müller et al., 2023) and aims to investigate doctoral candidates in sport psychology with respect to their perception and satisfaction regarding supervision, as well as facets of their supervisory situation. A total of 70 doctoral candidates in sport psychology in Germany (Mage = 30.81 years; SDage = 3.60 years) provided information on their satisfaction with supervision and their perception of other facets of their supervisory situation (i. e., infrastructure, scientific work and thinking, relationship and health).
