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.
