Book excerpt: When an athlete gets injured, great attention is paid to understanding the physical nature of their injury and putting in place strategies for rehabilitation.

To attend only to the physical effects is to leave a part of the athlete effectively untreated.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Athletes routinely use psychological skills and interventions for performance enhancement but, perhaps surprisingly, not always to assist in recovery from injury. This book demonstrates the ways in which athletes and practitioners can transfer psychological skills to an injury and rehabilitation setting, to enhance recovery and the well-being of the athlete. Drawing on the very latest research in sport and exercise psychology, this book explores key psychological concepts relating to injury, explaining typical psychological responses to injury and psychological aspects of rehabilitation. Using case studies in every chapter to highlight the day-to-day reality of working with injured athletes, it introduces a series of practical interventions, skills and techniques, underpinned by an evidence-base, with a full explanation of how each might affect an athlete’s recovery from injury. The Psychology of Sport Injury and Rehabilitation emphasises the importance of an holistic, multi-disciplinary approach to sports injury and rehabilitation. No other book examines the psychological aspects of both sports injury and the rehabilitation process, and therefore this is an essential resource for students, scholars and practitioners working in sport psychology, sports therapy, sports medicine or coaching.

Book Psychology of Sport Injury

Download or read book Psychology of Sport Injury written by John Heil and published by Human Kinetics. This book was released on 1993 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Many of the greatest losses and victories in sport are played out in the battle with injury. An injury does more than undermine an athlete's physical abilities; it also challenges the athlete's emotional equilibrium and mental game. To successfully treat injuries, you must treat the psychological consequences as well as the physical trauma. Psychology of Sport Injury shows you how." "Psychology of Sport Injury is for all professionals who work with injured athletes: psychologists, physicians, athletic trainers, and sport physical therapists. It has the in-depth information needed to address the psychological needs of those with injuries." "To improve both the continuity and quality of care that injured athletes receive, Psychology of Sport Injury advocates a team approach, with psychologists and sports medicine professionals working together with athletes to help them successfully return to play. To help team members work together, the book includes medical information that is helpful for the psychologist to know. And conversely, it contains specific recommendations for psychological intervention in a format that is practical for the sports medicine professional." "This hands-on guide to the psychological management of sport injury is a must for psychologists and sports medicine practitioners who want to help athletes rehabilitate from injuries as completely - and as quickly as possible."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Injuries in Athletics  Causes and Consequences

Download or read book Injuries in Athletics Causes and Consequences written by Semyon M. Slobounov and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-06-17 with total page 539 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the past decade, the scientific information on psychology of injury has increased considerably. Despite dramatic advances in physical education of coaches, field of medicine, athletic training, and physical therapy, the sport-related traumatic injuries is our major concern. Athletic injuries, both single and multiple, have a tendency to grow dramatically. Accordingly, prevention of sport-related injuries is a major challenge facing the sport medicine world today. The purpose of this book is to accumulate the latest development in psychological analyses, evaluation, and management of sport-related injuries, including traumatic brain injuries. No two traumatic injuries are alike in mechanism, symptoms, or symptoms resolution. There is still no agreement upon psychological diagnosis and there is no known comprehensive treatment for sport-related injuries for regaining pre-injury status. Physical symptoms resolution is not an indication of "psychological trauma" resolution.

Book Psychological Response of Athletes to Injury

Download or read book Psychological Response of Athletes to Injury written by Robert Masten and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this research was to investigate the causes of the emergence of sports injuries and to explain the differences in psychological response with regard to the severity of the injury. We examined 68 competing Slovene athletes with surgically treated knee injury. The estimated time of rehabilitation of the more severely injured athletes was six months, while those who sustained less severe injuries faced a monthlong rehabilitation. We measured the athletes% personality traits, their athletic identity, coping with pain, rehabilitation beliefs, motivation and social support provided by their family and their coach as well as their colleagues. The results showed that the group of more severely injured athletes demonstrated behaviour that is less inhibited in response than the group of athletes with less severe injuries. The psychological response proved to be almost the same in both groups, except for the higher levels of catastrophizing, and a higher individual coping response found in the group of more severely injured athletes. Furthermore, masculinity was found to predict self-efficacy and the individual coping response, the strength of athletic identity predicted motivation and rehabilitation value, while emotional lability predicted catastrophizing and self-efficacy. Athletes with lower athletic identity, lower masculinity and higher emotional lability are more exposed to adjustment difficulties after sustaining an athletic injury. In our opinion, the strategies for successful rehabilitation after a sports injury should be aimed at the identification of athletes with personality traits that pose a higher risk of experiencing adjustment difficulties, at promoting adequate motivation, increasing coach support and at the application of cognitive-behavioural strategies.
