,College 1 - Chapter 1: Welcome to sport and exercise psychology
Defining sport and exercise psychology
What is sport psychology: effects of psychological factors on sport-related behavior,
performance, and well-being.

Sport psychology consists of three orientations:
1. Psychophysiological orientation: they believe that the best way to study behavior
during sport and exercise is to examine the physiological processes of the brain and
their influences on physical activity. They look at heart rate, brain wave activity, and
muscle action potentials.
2. Social-psychological orientation: they assume that behavior is determined by a
complex interaction between the environment and the personal makeup of the
athlete or exerciser. They examine how the individual’s social environment influences
her behavior and how the behavior influences the social-psychological environment.
3. Cognitive-behavioral orientation: they emphasize the athlete’s or exerciser’s
cognitions or thoughts and behaviors and believe that thought is central in
determining behavior. They can develop self-report measures to assess self-
confidence, anxiety, goal orientation, etc.

Sport and exercise psychology is the scientific study of people and their behaviors in sport
and exercise contexts and the practical application of that knowledge. These psychologists
identify principles and guidelines that professionals can use to help adults and children
participate in and benefit from sport and exercise activity.
- Affect: one’s feelings
- Behavior: one’s actions
- Cognitions: one’s thoughts

Sport and exercise psychologists seek to understand and help elite athletes, children, people
with physical or mental disabilities, seniors and recreational participants achieve maximum
participation, peak performance, personal satisfaction, and development through
participation.

Specializing in sport psychology
Three roles of sport psychologists:
1. Conducting research: sport psychologists study problems such as exercise adherence.
Then they share their findings with colleagues and participants in the field.
2. Teaching: Sport and exercise psychologist teach university courses.
3. Consulting: Consulting with individual athletes or athletic teams is done to develop
psychological skills for enhancing competitive performance and training.

Distinguishing between two specialties
1. Clinical sport psychologists: extensive training in psychology, so they can detect and
treat individuals with emotional disorders.
2. Educational sport psychology specialists: have extensive training in sport and
exercise science, physical education, and kinesiology, and they understand the
psychology of human movement, particularly as it relates to sport and exercise

, contexts. Anxiety management, confidence development, and improved
communication are some of the areas that educational sport psychology specialists
address.

Reviewing the history of sport and exercise psychology
Sport psychology dates to 1880. The history of sport psychology falls into six periods.

Period 1: Ealy years (1893-1920)
Triplett (1898) is one of the first contributors to the field of sport
psychology. He studied that when a cyclist performed alone, he was not
able to give the same energy as when he biked with multiple bikers.
His initial observations were correct by studying cycling racing records, he
conducted an experiment in which children were to reel in fishing line as
fast as they could.

Later a finding was that arousal and performance is not a linear line.

E.W. Scripture was interested in taking a more scientific data-based approach to the study of
psychology. He saw sport as an excellent way to demonstrate the value of this new scientific
psychology. Then he conducted studies on reaction and muscle movement times of fencers
and runners as well as transfer of physical training.

Period 2: the development of laboratories and psychological testing (1921-1938)
This time is characterized by the development of sport psychology laboratories and
increased psychological testing. Coleman Griffith is seen as the father of American sport
psychology

Period 3: preparation for the future (1939-1965)
Franklin Henry: trained physical educators

Dorothy Hazeltine Yates developed the technique: relaxation-set method.

Ogilvie (1960) – applied sport psychologist: different types of athletes have different
personality characteristics

Zajonc (1965): social facilitation theory – there is an audience effect, an audience creates
arousal. This influences performance.

Period 4: establishment of Academic sport psychology (1966-1977)
By mid 1960s physical education had become an academic discipline. Applied sport
psychology consultants also began working with athletes and teams.

Period 5: multidisciplinary science and practice in sport and exercise psychology (1978-1999)
From 1970s to 1999 there was a large grow in sport and exercise psychology. More and
better research was conducted.

7

, Period 6: contemporary sport and exercise psychology (2000-present)
Sport psychology has a bright future. Several serious issues are present.

Focusing on sport and exercise psychology around the world
The ISSP promotes and disseminates information about sport psychology throughout the
world.

Peak performance
Sport (peak) performance is dependent on individual
differences (motivation, self-efficiency), environmental factors
(coach-effectiveness, peer teams, parents, opportunities) and
psychological (life) skills (goal setting, attentional focus,
imagery, relaxation)

The four unit of sport skills: mental, physical, technical, and
tactical

X-model: box 1
- Task demands: footbal, high jump, discus
throwing
- Task-cricumstances: footbal: (artificial) grass,
ball, referee, opponent, weather
- Task-conditions: rules of the game, time
regulations, pay/rewards, substitues, labour
contract
- Task-relations: team or solo, relation coach-
athlete, relation colleagues/competitors,
communication

X-model: box 2
- Stable (habitual) characteristics
o Physical: length, weight, power, speed, strength
o Technical: ability
o Psychological: persistence, mental toughness, need for achievement, goal
orientation
o Tactical: reading the game
- Momentaneous (variable) characteristics
o Current capacity (e.g., injury/fatigue); state anxiety, goal state.

Actual vs required:
- Actual characteristics (ist-situation):
o What are actual KSAO’s of this player
o What are actual characteristics of this sport team
- Required characteristics (soll-situation):
o What are required KSAO’s of this player?
o What are required characteristics of this sport team?
