SPORT AND EXERCISE PSYCHOLOGICAL “This book is a joy to read and
greatly needed. The overall scholarly quality is very strong, and
the chapters are clear, accessible, helpful and interesting - a
rare combination. There are few texts that examine sport and
exercise from a practitioner’s perspective, and fewer that help
students and trainees navigate the complex terrain of practice. The
editors should be congratulated on pulling together a book that
educates, inspires, provokes, and will be of practical use.”
Professor Brett Smith, School of Sport, Exercise and Rehabilitation
Sciences, University of Birmingham Sport and Exercise Psychology:
Practitioner Case Studies is a contemporary text focusing on
current issues in the discipline of sport and exercise psychology.
Integrating research and practice in order to develop a coherent
understanding of existing knowledge, future research directions and
applied implications within the field, the text explores issues
pertinent to the applied practitioner/supervisor and draws on
expert commentary to investigate potential solutions to many key
issues. Each chapter uses a case study approach to allow
internationally recognized contributors to highlight and evaluate
their experience across a broad range of sport and exercise
performance areas. Practitioners are provided with a full range of
available interventions to address specific types of psychological
issue including performing under pressure, working with teams,
injury rehabilitation, working with coaches, mental toughness,
career transitions, athlete well- being, physical activity
promotion, exercise and body image, lifestyle interventions,
exercise dependence, and motor learning and control. Sport and
Exercise Psychology is supported by a range of online materials
designed to help both study and practice. It presents content that
is directly applicable to those seeking to enter the profession,
and which can also inform the ongoing development of reflective
practitioners.
