ASPP 5306 Mental Skills Training: Consulting Through a Season
This course will examine the experience of being a Mental Performance Consultant on an athletic team for the duration of an entire season (including pre-season, mid-season and postseason). We will explore the social and psychological setting of multiple sports, with special emphasis on the individual and collective mental skills related to team success. Through the use of the main text and case studies, various situations the consultant may encounter throughout a season will be analyzed. A basic understanding of the collegiate sport model, as well as conditions related to mental skills training with a team, will be explored by the end of the course.
