Abstract

Sport psychology contributes to performance enhancement. It has been employed for some 30 years, the view being that sport psychology educates athletes in a way that enables them to enhance their own performance. A review of recent publications has revealed confusion over terminology concerning the goals and methods used. The need for a more systematic approach is stressed, and an action theoretical perspective is outlined. This review presents psychological performance training as practiced, taking into account the requirements and prerequisites, the target population, the specific uses, and the generally applied training schedules. Future directions in psychological performance enhanced training are suggested with respect to the need for evaluation and practical considerations. Verf.-Referat
