Both journals in their aims and scope write that these are interdisciplinary journals including themes as sport and sociology, but as for International Review for the Sociology of Sport, it is decelerated as more academic journal as it is official publication of the International Sociology of Sport Association (ISSA).
In SS with 10 issues per year there is at least one article about gender in sports contest almost in every second issue.
