Public defense of doctoral thesis | Uncovering the Field of Sports Coaches’ Talent Mindsets in Norway: Current States, Professional Developmental Potential, and Implications for Coaching Behavior by Dag André...
Based on knowledge of individuals' mindset and psychological interventions, Dag André Nilsen’s PhD-project aimed to enhance coach education programs and help coaches create training environments that promote learning and development. Specifically, the study examined whether and how a coach education program can help develop what is known as a growth mindset in coaches. A growth mindset is the belief that talent and skills can be developed through effort and learning, which stands in contrast to a fixed mindset, where talent and skills are perceived as innate and unchangeable.
Call for Papers | “Coaching Behaviour: Conceptual, Methodological and Empirical Considerations”, Special Issue od Sports Coaching Review. Call ends September 30, 2022
This special issue is about formulating ways to apply observational methods to further understanding, changing and/or monitoring coach behaviour and advancing pedagogical applications for coaches. Consequently, we think this is an opportune time to bring researchers’ working in coaching behaviour together through welcoming the submission of methodological, theoretical and empirical papers which offer an original contribution to what we can say we know in this area.
