Despite the prevalence of behavioral research conducted through
genetic studies, there is an absence of literature pertaining to
the genetics of motor behavior. Genetics and the Psychology of
Motor Performance is the first book to integrate cutting-edge
genetic research into the study of the psychological aspects of
motor learning and control. The book's central line of enquiry
revolves around the extent to which psychological factors central
to motor proficiency - including personality, emotion,
self-regulation, motivation, and perceptual-cognitive skills - are
acquired or inherited. It explains how these factors affect motor
performance, distilling the latest research into their genetic
underpinnings and, in doing so, assessing the magnitude of the role
genetics plays in the stages of motor development, from early
proficiency through to expertise. Written by leading experts in the
genetics of human performance and exercise psychology, and
thoroughly illustrated throughout, Genetics and the Psychology of
Motor Performance is a crucial resource for any upper-level student
or researcher seeking a deeper understanding of motor learning. It
is an important book for anyone studying or working in exercise
psychology, motor development, exercise genetics, or exercise
physiology more broadly.
