Journal Title: Antropomotoryka. Journal of Kinesiology and Exercise Sciences - Year 2007, Vol 17, Issue 37
Abstract
The Author discusses and stresses the importance of psychology and psychological processes in sport activity. He explains how the psychological processes – such as perception, thinking, various qualities of attention, arousal, emotions, motivation – influence the quality and efficacy of training, athlete’s behaviour, competition results, and coach’s style of leadership. Taking above into considerations the Author describes and discusses Freud’s psychology, behaviourism, and cognitive psychology. He also discusses the social changes in contemporary society, especially the mutual relations between director and worker, chief and subordinate, coach and athlete. Discussing the subject he describes McGregor’s X-Y theory.
