Description
Summary:The practice of sport psychology has been significantly influenced by the cognitive-behavioral approach. In particular, psychological skills training (PST) is an often-researched set of cognitive-behavioral techniques applied to sports. Recent sport psychology literature has explored how cognitive-behavioral psychotherapies (CBTs) can benefit sports. Rational emotive behavior therapy (REBT) has emerged as an important CBT with clear theoretical and practical implications for sports. Little has been written about the confluence of PST and REBT. The current paper proposes and details the confluence of PST and REBT drawing on core REBT theory but with an eye firmly on applied sport psychology.
