The new third edition of A Critical Introduction to Sport
Psychology is the only textbook in the field that provides a
detailed overview of key theories, concepts and findings within the
discipline of sport psychology, as well as a critical perspective
that examines and challenges these core foundations. Fully revised
and updated, the new edition covers key research findings affecting
both participation and performance in sport, including topics such
as motivation, anxiety, emotional coping, concentration, mental
imagery, expertise and team cohesion. In addition, the book
includes a range of helpful features that bring the science to
life, including critical thinking exercises, suggestions for
student projects and new "In the spotlight" boxes that highlight
key advances in theory or practice. A comprehensive glossary is
also included, whilst a final chapter examines some new horizons in
sport psychology, including embodied cognition and socio-cultural
perspectives. Sport is played with the body but often won in the
mind; that is the theory. A Critical Introduction to Sport
Psychology is the definitive textbook for anyone wishing to engage
critically with this fascinating idea.
