Abstract. Considering that legislative, biomedical and psycho-social factors could be the cornerstones in antidoping research, the latter has been the latest to be developed. The aim of this study is to carry out an in-depth bibliographic review on the study of doping in elite sport from the perspective of the social sciences and to identify new anti-doping research challenges to improve prevention strategies in Spain. The review indicates that there are different theoretical models used to understand attitudes, intentions and behaviors towards doping. Similarly, there are many individual, social and sport-specific factors that can influence doping practice. Particularly in Spain, the evolution of the fight against doping has been quite late and it is necessary to promote more social science research, with greater coordination between researchers, anti-doping organizations and national sport federations.
