INTRODUCTION:
Exercise psychology and sport psychology involve the scientific
study of the psychological factors that are associated with
participation and performance in sport, exercise and other types of
physical activity. Sport psychologists are interested in two main
areas: (a) helping athletes use psychological principles to achieve
optimal mental health and to improve performance (performance
enhancement) and (b) understanding how participation in sport,
exercise and physical activity affects an individual's psychological
development, health and well-being throughout the lifespan. Sport
and Exercise Psychology covers the key topics in sport and
exercise psychology including the effectiveness of psychological
skills training interventions, models for delivery and the
development of research approaches studying the impact of
psychological skills on performance. A number of specific chapters
focus on key issues such as, mood, emotion, emotion regulation,
coping, self-confidence, anxiety, imagery, performance profiling and
leadership development in players and coaches. Exercise is typically linked to positive psychological states and three
chapters review this effect. A chapter focuses on the influence of exercise on self-esteem while the next chapter looks at
the use of music and a further chapter looks at dysfunctional effects including addictive states. A final chapter focuses on
placebo effects addressing key issues in designing psychological interventions. The integrated and interactive approach,
combined with the comprehensive coverage, make this book the ideal companion for courses in applied clinical
psychology.
