内容説明
Sports psychologists are concerned with the application of psychological theories and methods to sports, play and recreational activities and with the discovery of more effective ways to further the learning and enjoyment of sports. It is a rapidly growing field that is actively extending its areas of application to mental health and business and other organizational settings. Designed to advance both theory and practice in the psychological preparation of elite sports performers, this text starts with an introduction to the psychological preparation of elite sports performers, reviews, summarizes and integrates sports psychology research from both the qualitative and quantitative domains and includes evidence from the UK, North America, Europe, and Australia. The main chapters address different aspects of mental preparation for performance, and each aspect is viewed from a variety of perspectives - a critical analysis of the research, the major implications for best practice and the implications for future research.
The authors draw on their experience gained from working with high performance athletes and coaches from a variety of sports and the book contains quotations from performers.

内容説明
This book is designed to advance both theory and practice in the psychological preparation of high-level sports performers. The authors integrate the relevant qualitative and quantitative research literatures with practical knowledge gained via their own personal experience of working with elite athletes. Seven aspects of psychological preparation are considered: basic psychological skills; self-confidence; motivation; arousal and activation; stress and anxiety; concentration; and coping with adversity. Each discussion ends with a summary of the implications for future research and best practice. Elite performers from around the world share their techniques for mentally preparing for competition. The authors then explore the links between the practices that these athletes use and theories which underlie psychological preparation for performance. This book develops a model of psychological preparation for elite sports performers incorporating two unique features: the research-to-practice orientation which is taken to preparation for high-level sports performance; and a global perspective using evidence derived from North American, European, Australian and other research literatures in both general and sport psychology. This is the first book of its kind and should be a valuable resource for sport psychologists, students and professionals with an interest in sport or high-level performance.
