SR-326 Applied Sport Psychology

The module will enable students to apply sport psychology theory into practice by examining a range of issues that confront the applied sport psychologist in modern practice. Students will consider how to work as a practitioner psychologist at the individual, team and organisational level, to create thriving sporting environments. The module will build on the fundamental material from levels 1 and 2.
SR-M17 Core Principles of Sport Psychology and Psychomotor Learning

The aim of this module is to provide students with knowledge and understanding pertaining to core psychological and psychomotor learning theories pertinent to sport. Through this module, students will be introduced to a range of theories and concepts and provided with opportunities to critically review current research and practice related to these. In doing so, students will develop an ability to utilise appropriate research and insight to underpin planned practice as a sport psychologist. Specifically, students will be taught how to draw upon and integrate core theories and concepts to enhance sport performance across the lifespan.
SR-M18 Approaches to Sport Psychology Practice

This module provides a critical insight into different approaches to engaging in sport psychology delivery. Students will have an opportunity to critically reflect upon each of these approaches and practice different strategies associated with these approaches. Further, students will be introduced to counselling skills and, through practical activities, practice these skills. Additionally, students will learn about the benefits of being a reflective practitioner and the importance of integrating reflection within their work.
