Handbook of Sport Psychology

The Handbook of Sport Psychology, 4th Edition, provides theoretical and practical knowledge across sport, exercise, and performance psychology in a two-volume set. The work connects psychological principles to real-world performance and physical activity outcomes.

The volumes examine central performance subjects such as athletic motivation, leadership roles, mental training, and choking under pressure. They also address personal and social dimensions of participation, including athletic injury, sport socialization, and diversity.

Endorsed by the International Society of Sport Psychology, this expanded edition synthesizes foundational scholarship with specialized application areas across competitive and developmental settings.
