Global Practices and Training in Applied Sport, Exercise, and
Performance Psychology offers case analysis as a vehicle to address
issues and experiences in the application of sport, exercise, and
performance psychology (SEPP) and the supervision/training of
individuals to become professionals in the field. A follow-up to
Becoming a Sport, Exercise, and Performance Psychology Professional
(2014), this book features a discussion of real-world case examples
which highlight various aspects of professional practice as well as
supervision and training. Professionals from around the world,
including the United States and Canada, Europe, Asia, Africa, and
Australia share diverse experiences, providing a uniquely in-depth,
global perspective. The case studies contained in the book were
selected to provide insight into specific elements of applied
practice and supervision/training through a global lens as well as
demonstrate the value of incorporating case analysis and reflection
into one's training and continued professional development. Case
analysis is an essential part of learning and instruction. Beyond
educating the reader about theories and research on related topics
in the field, case analysis allows for more complex levels of
learning, including analysis, synthesis, and evaluation of diverse
scenarios. In Part I of this book, the cases focus on applied SEPP
practice; Part II is comprised of cases that focus on training and
supervision. This book is essential reading for graduate students
and neophyte professionals in the field for whom it is critical to
learn how to effectively apply knowledge to real-world sport,
exercise, and performance psychology scenarios. In addition, the
book is a useful resource for seasoned and expert practitioners and
supervisors who can use case analysis as a means of continuing
their professional development.
This edited book by two prominent associate professors of Sport and
Exercise Science addresses relevant issues and experiences as one
becomes a sport and exercize psychologist. Chapters discuss the
supervision and training involved along with models of practice,
theory, techniques, and ethical issues that psychogists will need
to succeed in this field. The chapters are written by experts from
many countries around the world.
Performance Excellence: Stories of Success from the Real World of
Sport and Exercise Psychology provides concise and effective
lessons on a variety of psychological skills and broader concepts
within the domains of exercise, sport, and performance psychology.
These skills and concepts include team cohesion, dynamics, and
leadership; goal-setting, motivation, and adherence; exercise

mental training; mindset; and facing and overcoming challenges such
as anxiety, burnout, and rehabilitation. Each chapter includes a
short educational piece that centers on the select concept and
subsequent examples that highlight how the concept works in real
life. At the end of each lesson a few takeaways are provided. Over
60 stories of real-world examples provide poignant and compelling
lessons and make the material come alive. These stories show the
reader in an accessible and engaging way how to apply the sport and
exercise psychology concepts outside the classroom. Ultimately,
Performance Excellence serves as a wonderful resource for students,
as well as for sport and exercise practitioners.
