The use of psychological interventions and counselling strategies
has become a central part of injury prevention, rehabilitation, and
return to participation process. The Psychology of Sport and
Performance Injury: An Interprofessional Case-Based Approach is the
first book to offer students, academic scholars, and practitioners
case studies that are grounded in psychological theory and
empirical evidence, with a specific focus on addressing
psychological aspects of sport and performance injuries in an
interprofessional manner. This book presents nine "real-life
inspired" fictional sport and performance injury cases. It
demonstrates the viability and effectiveness of adopting an
interprofessional, person-centered approach to injury,
rehabilitation, and return to participation process. Each case is
focused on a particular phase of rehabilitation, with specific
attention placed on relevant biopsychosocial concerns. Within each
chapter, a theoretical, conceptual, and empirical analysis of the
case is presented followed by detailed accounts on how a range of
professionals and significant others can work alongside each other
to provide a holistic care for the injured performer within their
own competencies. The Psychology of Sport and Performance Injury:
An Interprofessional Case-Based Approach emphasizes the importance
of holistic, interprofessional approach to sport and performance
injury rehabilitation. This book is a vital resource for
upper-level students, academic scholars, and applied practitioners
from a range of sport and performance related disciplines such as
athletic training, kinesiology, occupational therapy, physical
therapy, sport psychology, sports therapy, and strength and
conditioning. It offers a valuable reading for a range of
individuals and professionals who are involved in sport and
performance injury prevention, rehabilitation, and return to
participation process.
