DE 1: Framework for sport psychology of the DTB

This talk will be held in German.

Henning Plessner & Kathrin Staufenbiel

This year, there have been a cooperation between sport psychologists from the university of Heidelberg and the German Sport University Cologne where they developed a new framework for sport psychology of the DTB. This event provides you an overview of the concept. Firstly, it is about drawing up psychological specifications in gymnastics. That is about, which general and specific requests (in a cognitive, motivational and emotional way) can be identified in different gymnastic disciplines during competition and training? This analysis brings up a number of consequences for example for the psychological content of the education and development of coaches. In addition, the framework includes directives and orientation for transposing sport psychological advice and support schemes at the DTB. For instance, for the course of counselling, the sport psychological diagnostic and the sport specific focus.
