Applied Exercise Psychology: The Challenging Journey from Motivation to Adherence

Editat de Selen Razon, Michael L. Sachs
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 mai 2024
Now in its second edition, Applied Exercise Psychology emphasizes the application of evidence-based knowledge drawn from the fields of exercise psychology, health psychology, clinical and counseling psychology, and exercise physiology for physical activity behavior change. Thoroughly revised, the new edition offers readers:
  • two new chapters covering Excusercise and Mood Alteration’s link to exercise;
  • fully updated sections on current research and theoretical bases for understanding and promoting physical activity behavior;
  • interventions for facilitating physical activity behavior change and the tools for measuring the effectiveness of these interventions;
  • cross-cultural considerations for practitioners to ensure multicultural competency;
  • considerations to guide best practices with special populations (e.g., persons with medical conditions and persons with mental health conditions);
  • overall applied implications and future directions. 
An essential read that covers a variety of critical topics in applied exercise psychology, it brings often overlooked issues to the attention of practitioners to promote not only evidence-based practice but also responsible ethics and referral. The collection is a key reference for up-to-date research findings, relevant field experiences, and applied implications.
