Complex Cases in Sport Psychology

Complex Cases in Sport Psychology offers instructors and students a unique and novel approach to teaching and learning about sport psychology. The book consists of a series of character-driven narratives-set within the context of a university athletic department-which encourage discussion and critical thinking in order to find solutions to issues such as athletes lacking in motivation, introducing mental skills training programs, and improving recruitment.With a companion website which includes topical cases, further guidance on the teaching cases approach and an instructor's manual, this is an essential supplementary resource for any instructor looking to provide experiential learning and encourage critical thinking in their sport psychology classrooms. Covering a full range of psychological issues in a relevant sporting context, it's also an important, hands-on guide to counselling for any upper-level student of sport psychology.
