Largely self-contained, only prerequisite is solid course in physical chemistry. Over 150 exercises. 1989 edition.
This book evaluates the psychological concept of exercise addiction
from a scholastically multidisciplinary perspective. The most
recent developments in the area of investigation are evaluated with
reference to theory and critical analysis of extant research. The
book summarises the current knowledge about the
psycho-physiological nature of exercise addiction. Further, it
presents the conceptual hegemony in addressing the problem of
exercise addiction within the scientific community. The
characteristic and most prevalent symptoms of the disorder are
discussed alongside the modes of risk-assessment. Subsequently, the
underlying motives and several theoretical models of exercise
addiction are reviewed. Finally, the research on exercise addiction
is evaluated and directions for future research are suggested.
Difference is made between primary exercise addiction in which the
exercise behaviour is the problem and secondary exercise addiction
in which exercise is used as a means in achieving another
objective, like weight loss. This book concludes with two brief
sections summarising plainly what we know today and what we still
need to know about exercise addiction.
