This module aims to examine the relationships between psychological states and physical performance in sport settings. Topics covered under this module include attributions, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, self-efficacy and self-confidence. Students will be acquainted with interventions for performance enhancement including techniques dealing with attentional and concentration problems, stress/arousal/anxiety, visualisation and imagery, goal setting and self-talk. Students will be introduced to concepts such as aggression, burnout, and injuries. Finally, students will examine the use of psychological concepts in health promotion to encourage participation in physical activity.

Sport Psychology is a module selected from the Diploma in Sport Coaching.  It enables participants to acquire new skills or deepen relevant skills without the need to pursue a full specialist diploma. As this is a stackable course, participants may choose to complete the remaining modules within the validity period, of 2 years, to be awarded the full Diploma qualification.
