This module aims to consider advanced topics, and professionalised concepts, for applied practitioners in sport psychology. Through independent fieldwork and critique of recent applied research, the module seeks to examine issues relating to athlete (and coach) sports performance, enhancing the quality of competitive sports experience and optimising the advanced sport-learning environment through intervention.
