Recognition of concussion as a serious injury, informed by
neurological and physiological research, is now commonplace in
sport. However, research on the psychology of concussive injury-its
psychological implications and outcomes, and psychological
interventions for prevention and recovery-has largely been
overlooked. This is the first book to explicitly and
authoritatively set out the psychological aspects of sport-related
concussion from a multidisciplinary and global perspective The book
attempts to offer a global understanding of the injury by
presenting an historical overview; exploring the psychological
implications of sport-related concussion and the influence of
gender and sociocultural context on concussive injury and recovery;
setting out practical guidance on working with special populations
suffering from concussive injuries; and discussing the theoretical
and methodological considerations for research on concussion and
future directions for this research. Written by a group of leading
international experts and offering a hitherto underdeveloped
perspective on this crucial area of sports injury research, this
book is crucial reading for any upper-level student, researcher,
sport scientist, coach, or allied health professional working on
sport-related concussion. It is also valuable reading for students
and researchers interested in the psychosocial processes that
impact injury and recovery or general professional practice in
sport psychology.
