What is the SMHAT-1
The International Olympic Committee (IOC)
Sport Mental Health Assessment Tool 1
(SMHAT-1) is a standardized assessment
tool aiming to identify at an early stage elite
athletes (dened as professional, Olympic,
Paralympic and collegiate level; 16 and older)
potentially at risk for or already experiencing
mental health symptoms and disorders, in
order to facilitate timely referral of those in
need to adequate support and/or treatment.
Who should use the SMHAT-1
The SMHAT-1 can be used by sports medicine
physicians and other licensed/registered health
professionals, but the clinical assessment (and
related management) within the SMHAT-1
(see step 3b) should be conducted by sports
medicine physicians and/or licensed/registered
mental health professionals. If you are not a
sports medicine physician or other licensed/
registered health professional, please use
the IOC Sport Mental Health Recognition
Tool 1 (SMHRT-1). Physical therapists or
athletic trainers working with a sports medicine
physician can use the SMHAT-1 but any
guidance or intervention should remain the
responsibility of their sports medicine physician.
Why use the SMHAT-1
Mental health symptoms and disorders
are prevalent among active and former
elite athletes. Mental health disorders are
typically dened as conditions causing
clinically signicant distress or impairment
that meet certain diagnostic criteria, such as
in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of
Mental Disorders 5th edition (DSM-5) or the
International Classication of Diseases 10th
revision (ICD-10), whereas mental health
symptoms are self-reported, may be signicant
but do not occur in a pattern meeting specic
diagnostic criteria and do not necessarily cause
signicant distress or functional impairment.
When to use the SMHAT-1
The SMHAT-1 should be ideally embedded
within the pre-competition period (i.e., a
few weeks after the start of sport training),
as well as within the mid- and end-season
period. The SMHAT-1 should also ideally be
used when any signicant event for athletes
occurs such as injury, illness, surgery,
unexplained performance concern, after a
major competition, end of competitive cycle,
suspected harassment/abuse, adverse life
event and transitioning out of sport.
To use this paper version of the SMHAT-1, please print it single-sided. The SMHAT-1 in its
current form can be freely copied for distribution to individuals, teams, groups and organizations.
Any revision requires the specic approval by the IOC MHWG while any translation should be
reported to the IOC MHWG. The SMHAT-1 should not be re-branded or sold for commercial gain.
Further information about the development of the SMHAT-1 and related screening tools (including
psychometric properties) is presented in the corresponding publication of the British Journal of
Sports Medicine.

Step 3a. Brief intervention and monitoring
ACTION: Refer the athlete to a single intervention or combination of brief interventions such as psychoeducation, mindfulness, meditation,
mental skills training, or stress control.
ACTION: After the completion of brief intervention(s), the athlete should be re-assessed with the triage tool (Athlete’s form 1), and further action
taken as follows:
Total score 0 – 16 >>> No further action needed
Total score 17 – 50 >>> The athlete must proceed into step 3b
Step 3b. Clinical assessment and management
This step should be completed by a sport medicine physician or a licensed/registered mental health professional. The objective of this step is to
conduct a comprehensive clinical assessment in order to identify important problems/diagnoses and create a management/intervention plan.
ACTION: Review and interpret the triage and screening scores and conduct a clinical assessment in order to obtain additional information.
Inquire about a history of and/or current presence of harassment/abuse within or outside of sports.
ACTION: Your comprehensive assessment should consider the following:
Severity
Severity refers to the likelihood of an identied clinical problem signicantly compromising the athlete’s health and wellbeing,
for instance, by causing severe functional impairments, markedly disturbed behaviors and/or risk to self or others (e.g., suicidal/
homicidal intent, signicant self-neglect, or electrolyte abnormalities in eating disorders would be considered high severity).
Complexity
Complexity refers to comorbid mental health and other medical conditions (e.g., alcohol use disorder and anxiety, depression
and diabetes mellitus, or any mental health disorder and signicant musculoskeletal injury) and/or signicant sport
(e.g., performance concerns, career dissatisfaction) or non-sport (e.g., relationship or nancial problems, bereavement)
stressors. Note that being successful can also be a major life event leading to unexpected stresses.
Diagnostic uncertainty
Diagnostic uncertainty refers to any doubt about diagnosis. Examples include dierentiating a high level of sport-related physical activity from
over-activity found in hypomania and ADHD, functional performance-related eating from eating disorders, or depression from bipolar disorder.
Treatment non-response
Treatment non-response refers to when the initial treating clinician has implemented one or two treatment cycles with no response or a
partial response.

athletes for guidance
In cases of diagnostic uncertainty or when further information might be useful >>> Consider whether one or more additional screening tools
should be completed by the athlete. If relevant, use the Athlete’s form 3: screening 7 for attention-decit hyperactivity disorder, screening 8 for
bipolar disorder, screening 9 for post-traumatic stress disorder, screening 10 for gambling, screening 11 for psychosis. For the calculation of
total score(s) and related interpretation, please refer to the last section of this form.
In cases that are severe, complex, diagnostically uncertain even after any appropriate additional screening and/or non-responsive to treatment
>>> Athletes should be referred to a mental health professional (e.g., clinical psychologist or psychiatrist).
