Defining Sport Psychology<\/p>\n

Sport psychology is about describing, explaining, and predicting performance.<\/p>\n

Describing behavior: We observe how personal and situational factors influence performance quality.<\/p>\n

Explaining behavior: We attempt to explain the causes of performance outcomes, such as poor performance under pressure conditions (choking).<\/p>\n

Predicting behavior: We attempt to predict performance quality due to psychological (i.e., personal) and social (i.e., environmental) factors.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
