, CHAPTER 1 SPORT PSYCHOLOGY: A DISCIPLINE AND
PROFESSION
Many professional sport teams have their own sport psychologist. However, the goal of providing
sport psychology services to every coach and athlete is unrealistic. The ultimate goal of a sport
psychology consultant should be to teach clients to teach or counsel themselves.

Positive psychology. An approach to human behaviour that focuses upon wellness and not merely
absence of disease.
Evidence-based psychology. Sport psychology must continue to develop as a scientific discipline in
such a manner that an evidence-based body of knowledge is developed. If the discipline is not based
upon good science, then applied sport psychology cannot be evidence-based.

SPORT AND EXERCISE PSYCHOLOGY DEFINED
Sport psychology is a science in which the principles of psychology are applied in a sport or exercise
setting. These principles are often applied to enhance performance.
The sport psychologist is interested in helping every sport participant reach his or her potential as an
athlete.
Sport and exercise psychology is the study of the effect of psychological and emotional factors on
sport and exercise performance, and the effect of sport and exercise involvement on psychological
and emotional factors.

HISTORY OF SPORT PSYCHOLOGY IN NORTH AMERICA
Norman Triplett (1897): analysed the performance of cyclists under conditions of social facilitation.
Cyclists performed significantly better when competing against others than when alone.

Coleman Griffith (1925): the first person to systematically carry out sport psychology research over
an extended period of time. “Father of sport psychology in North America”. He studies the nature of
psychomotor skills, motor learning, and the relationship between personality variables and physical
performance.

HISTORY OF SPORT PSYCHOLOGY IN EUROPE
Avksenty Cezarevich Puni (1898-1986): established the new discipline of Sport psychology, while in
Leningrad , by creating the Department of Sport Psychology.

Piotr Antonovich Roudik (1925): did the same thing in Moscow. He founded the first sport
psychology laboratory in the Soviet Union.

WHAT DOES THE SPORT PSYCHOLOGIST DO?
 The Clinical/Counselling Sport Psychologist. They are prepared to deal with emotional and
personality disorder problems that affect some athletes.
 The Educational Sport Psychologist. They have mastered the knowledge base of sport
psychology and serve as practitioners.
 The Research Sport Psychologist. They make sure the knowledge base continues to grow.

ETHICS IN SPORT PSYCHOLOGY
Sport psychologists need sufficient training regarding ethics.
