ANSWERS SET A+
✔✔Psychological predictors of sport injury rehab outcomes. - ✔✔Cognitive-affective
outcomes, which refer to how athletes think or feel at the end of rehabilitation
Behavioral outcomes, which refer to what athletes are able to do at the end of
rehabilitation
Physical outcomes, which pertain to how well the body has healed at the end of
rehabilitation (Brewer, 2010)
Return to play is centered around:
realistic expectations,
high levels of confidence and motivation, and
low levels of fear and anxiety regarding the return to sport.
✔✔Psychology interventions for rehabilitation - ✔✔1)Biofeedback
2) Goal setting (most effective)
3) Imagery
4) Modeling
5) Self-talk
Interventions that are theoretically grounded without experimental support include the
following:
Counseling
,Expressive writing
Performance enhancement groups
Relaxation training
Social support (Brewer & Redmond, 2017)
✔✔Interprofessional team approach in injury recovery. - ✔✔An interprofessional
approach is underpinned by the core philosophy that each athlete case should be
evaluated, diagnosed, and treated in a holistic, athlete-centered manner
✔✔Making and receiving referrals. - ✔✔One of the reasons psychological service
referrals may be infrequent could be perceived unavailability or actual unavailability of
psychology-trained practitioners
✔✔aerobic metabolism - ✔✔Ultimately, all metabolic power is derived from metabolizing
food, principally in the form of fats and carbohydrates (CHO), by combining them with
oxygen; this interaction produces ATP, water, and carbon dioxide. Aerobic metabolism
provides the metabolic power, in the form of ATP, that is necessary for all life-giving
processes that occur in athletes' bodies, such as the normal function of their respiratory,
circulatory, and nervous systems as well as their muscles.
✔✔Aneorobic metabolism - ✔✔Anaerobic metabolism is classically defined as
metabolism not requiring oxygen. Anaerobic metabolism can resynthesize ATP (but not
Creatine Phosphate) at rates up to 30 times faster than aerobic metabolism. However,
in contrast to aerobic metabolism, anaerobic metabolism is not very efficient, and its
very fast rates of ATP resynthesis cannot be sustained for very long.
✔✔Exercise intensity and duration - ✔✔The nature of the physical stress posed by
athletes' competition determines the relative dominance of their aerobic and anaerobic
metabolism (determines aerobeic vs. anaerobic activity)
✔✔Overload - ✔✔In order for athletes to become fitter, they impose a training overload
on their bodies. This principle of overload means that athletes' training should be
sufficiently stressful to elicit a positive adaptation. Without a sufficiently stressful training
overload, there is no stimulus for athletes' bodies to adapt, and no resulting increase in
their fitness will result.
✔✔Recovery - ✔✔Recovery from exercise can be defined as actions carried out
immediately after a training load, such as stretching and cooling down. It also involves
certain drinking and eating patterns as well as therapeutic actions.
✔✔Specificty - ✔✔This principle is best illustrated by considering Olympic champions in
diverse sporting events such as the 100-meter sprint, the high jump, weightlifting, and
, the marathon. All these athletes are, by virtue of being a champion, extremely fit, but
this fitness is specific to the demands of their sport. Accordingly, training programs also
need to reflect the specific demands of the athletes' sport.
✔✔Athlete progression - ✔✔For these reasons, athlete progression can be seen as a
series of individual "learning journeys" in which everyone involved, including the MPC,
collaboratively works to determine how best to enable athletes to progress from their
present condition. (everyone is different)
✔✔Training Periodization - ✔✔Periodization is a method coaches use to try to balance
the conflicting demands posed by the different principles of training when constructing
athletes' training programs. Periodization is the process of dividing the master training
plan (e.g., an annual plan) into smaller sections that are more manageable and focused
(see figure 12.1). Each of these sections will then have a much narrower focus than the
overall plan, allowing the athletes to overload and specialize on just a few aspects of
their overall fitness (Bompa & Buzzichelli, 2019).
✔✔Burnout - ✔✔Athlete burnout is characterized by emotional and physical exhaustion,
a reduced sense of accomplishment, and sport devaluation. To better understand
athlete burnout, suggested an integrated model encompassing antecedents (e.g.,
excessive training, school demands, stressful social relations, lack of recovery, early
success, negative performance demands), early signs (e.g., mood disturbances,
diminished motivation, decrements in performance), consequences (e.g., withdrawal,
impaired immune function), and factors related to personality, coping mechanisms, and
the environment (e.g., perfectionism, avoidance behaviors, low social support).
Burnout is psychologists/overtraining is physiologists both accompanied with reductions
in performance
✔✔Female Athlete Triad - ✔✔The female athlete triad relates to the interaction between
athletes' energy intake, menstrual function, and bone mineral density (De Souza et al.,
2014). It is a medical condition often observed in physically active girls and women, and
it involves three components:
1) low energy availability, with or without disordered eating,
2) menstrual dysfunction, and
3) low bone mineral density (De Souza et al., 2014).
✔✔The nervous system - ✔✔In very basic terms, the nervous system (see figure 12.2)
is composed of two primary branches: the central nervous system (CNS) and the
peripheral nervous system (PNS). The CNS is composed of the brain and spinal cord
and is responsible for most functions of the body and brain (Cacioppo et al., 2016). The
CNS and the brain are of particular interest in sport psychophysiology because of the
ability to objectively explore the connection between the brain and behavior (i.e., the
performance).
