Modules

Frameworks, Approaches and Skills in Sport Psychology (40 Credits) - Core

Consideration of salient Applied Sport Psychology frameworks and their impact on performance enhancement and athlete development will enable students to critically extend their appreciation of therapeutic perspectives, including cognitive behavioural and humanistic approaches to practice and critically evaluate their impact and contribution. Students will also learn about the counselling and interpersonal skills that are relevant to sport psychology work. The theory-to-application underpinning mental training is explored, and specific psychological skills and strategies that assist the development of 'behaviour change' in both sport and exercise populations are reviewed. The social processes involved in working with groups and organizations are explored, with specific focus on the impact of organisational culture and interpersonal / social relationships on athlete development. The module content also enables individual differences to be embedded and considered throughout the delivery.
