Dictionary of Sport Psychology: Sport, Exercise, and Performing
Arts is a comprehensive reference with hundreds of concise entries
across sports, martial arts, exercise and fitness, performing arts
and cultural sport psychology. This dictionary uses a global
approach to cover philosophical and cultural backgrounds, theory,
methodology, education and training and fields of application. Each
entry includes phenomenon, subject description and definition,
related theory and research, practice and application across sports
and related performance domains. An authoritative, balanced and
accessible presentation of the state-of-the-art in key subject
areas, this dictionary is a must-have reference for anyone studying
or practicing sport psychology.
Laterality in Sports: Theories and Applications summarizes recent
research on the neurophysiological foundations of handedness, and
how left or right lateralization (affecting primary hand use, foot
use, and eye use) affects motor control, performance outcome, skill
acquisition, and achievement of sports expertise-both for
one-on-one sports and team sports. As laterality research has
matured, greater focus has been given to applications in human
endeavours and, in particular, sport. The book examines performance
within individual sports, and discusses the coaching ramifications
of coaching to a specific lateralization preference.
