Like many other areas of psychology, it began to develop intensively in the 60-70s. XX century, and at first the main research focused on the study of differences in individual athletes (-> differential psychology), the ability and ability to act in stressful conditions of competition (-> stress), ways to increase the effectiveness of training.

Later, the range of issues being developed expanded significantly. For each sport, taking into account the achievements of general, pedagogical, age and social psychology, programs of special training complexes are developed, aimed at increasing the physical and mental fitness of athletes, their emotional-volitional, ethical, moral and collectivist preparedness.

In the domestic psychology of sports, the laws of effective formation motor skills and abilities, ways to achieve high indicators of strength, endurance, dexterity and coordination of movements, based on the concept of levels of building movements. Ways and methods of formation of specialized perceptions of athletes are studied - a sense of time, a sense of distance, changes in the speed of an object, anticipation of an instantaneous development of events (-> anticipation; intuition), "sense of the ball", "sense of water", etc. Attention is paid to the development of methods for improving observation , imagination, strategic and tactical thinking, coordinated interaction in group games, etc. The deepening of research is also going on in the field of studying the abilities of athletes and their special psychological selection at different age stages, and in the field of education and the formation of these abilities in the course of training.

Holotropic therapy - Holotropic therapy (from the Greek. Holos - whole and tropos - direction, turn) is a psychotherapeutic technique developed by S. and K. Grof, based on the results of psychedelic research, in which some levels of the human psyche were identified. These levels included sensory experience, which is formed by strong experiences that have no personal value; psychodynamic, or biographical, experience, represented by personally significant events; perinatal, or prebiographical, experience, the content of which corresponds to the experiences of dying, death and re-biological birth; and, finally, transpersonal or superbiographical experience, which is associated with the expansion of consciousness and the experience of phylogenetic experience.

We cannot get a complete picture of an athlete based only on the level of oxygen consumption, glycogen stores and biomechanical measurements ... The main thing to take into account is psychology, an understanding of those personal qualities that determine the highest achievements in sports. If an athlete is able to manage stress, is resistant to interference and knows how to adapt to changing conditions, then we have a complete set ... Research and applied development should be carried out in a comprehensive manner, taking into account various aspects, but especially psychological ones.

Peter Snell, three times Olympic champion, PhD in physiology

Having traveled the path of great sport, we did not seriously think about the role of psychology in the preparation of high-class athletes, did not pay due attention to the individual approach, the relationship between the coach and the athlete, in which we lost a lot. Often a coach obsessed with vanity pretends to be a psychologist. Later, looking back, you notice with bitterness that many young talented athletes for some reason did not reach their goal.<…>The role of the psychologist in the team is belittled, but in practice I had to resort to his help. I believe that, using the recommendations and advice of a psychologist, we managed not only to keep many athletes in the team, but also to achieve significant results.<…>Even an indirect contact with psychological science - through communication with a psychologist - gave rise to a lot of overestimation, to see its enormous potential.

Khmelev A.A., Honored trainer of the USSR

I used to be very jealous of the appearance of a stranger in the national team. Believed that I myself the best psychologist... Gayich also thought before me. But it is clear that I cannot cope ... I can tell you about the importance of the match. It is impossible to take away the sense of responsibility for the result, which kills the sparks in the eyes ... My assistant and I will go to special courses. Maybe after them it will be easier to understand the psychologist. And then sometimes some people turn to, but you do not understand what they are doing and why. So it was at Dynamo, when the guys were offered to fold the cubes together, to disassemble the parachute so that they could feel like a team. But it's obvious to me: the team needs a psychologist.

The subject of sports psychology. Sports psychology is a field of psychological science that studies the patterns of human mental manifestations in the process of training and competitive activity. Briefly, we can say that sports psychology is the science of a person in the field of sports. The need for the emergence of this science is due to the specific conditions of sports activity, primarily the desire for maximum achievements, competitiveness (desire to win), large, and sometimes extreme, physical and mental stress.

Sports psychology as a scientific and academic discipline includes a number of common and special sections, this is:

1) the motives of sports activities;

2) the psychological foundations of orientation and selection in different kinds sports and psychodiagnostics of inclinations and abilities;

3) psychomotor skills;

4) psychology of training and education in sports;

5) psychological characteristics of physical, technical and tactical training of athletes;

6) psychological characteristics of the personality of athletes;

7) the psychology of the sports team;

8) the condition of the athlete and their psychoregulation;

9) styles of sports activities;

10) psychological characteristics of the personality and activities of coaches;

11) psychological characteristics of the personality and activities of sports judges;

12) psychological characteristics of various sports;

13) the psychological characteristics of the fans.

Unfortunately, not all of these aspects have been studied equally fully. For example, psychologists have begun to study the psychological characteristics of fans only recently, and the psychology of sports refereeing is still an almost untouched topic.

Methods, used in sports psychology to study the psychological characteristics of athletes, coaches, sports teams, are the same as in general psychology. They are divided into four groups: organizational, empirical, quantitative and qualitative analysis.

Organizational methods determine the research strategy and include comparative (including age-relative or cross-sectional method) and longitudinal.

Comparative method is used to study the psychological differences between athletes of different sports, playing roles, gender, qualifications, the specifics of the training process and other factors.

Longitudinal method is used for the long-term (over several months and years) tracking of the mental and psychomotor development of the same athlete or a group of athletes. It makes it possible to visually and dynamically trace the influence of sports training on the change in the psychological characteristics of athletes.

Empirical Methods are very diverse and include objective observation, self-observation, experimental method and psychodiagnostics.

Objective observation aims to study various behavioral, emotional manifestations of athletes in the natural conditions of their activities (training, competition, training camps). It can be continuous or selective, using verbal (tape recorder), stenographic or protocol recording, technical means (video equipment). Observation should be carried out according to a pre-drawn plan and scheme. It should be systematic, which will provide a relatively complete collection of material on the issue of interest.

Introspection is a method of self-knowledge and is used by athletes in the analysis of their states, actions, techniques of movements performed in order to improve. Self-observation should also be systematic and become a habit for the athlete. The results should be recorded in a diary for the possibility of a qualitative introspection.

Experimental method has two varieties - laboratory and natural experiments:

The laboratory experiment is carried out in special rooms equipped with signaling and recording devices and devices (reflexometer, kinematometer, tremometer, etc.);

Natural (field) experiment is organized in natural conditions (in training, competition) and has two types - ascertaining and formative. In these types of experiments, equipment (portable or remote) is also used.

Psychodiagnostic methods are aimed at identifying the tendencies, individual abilities and giftedness of the athlete as a whole, the typological characteristics of the properties of the nervous system and temperament, personality traits, diagnostics of states (pre-competitive, competitive and post-competitive), changes in psychological parameters after exercise. These methods can be used for: selection of candidates for teams, selection of an appropriate type of activity and playing role for a given athlete, as well as a style of activity.

Quantitative and qualitative analysis methods are used for mathematical and statistical processing of the data obtained in the study and their meaningful analysis.

A brief excursion into the history of the emergence and development of sports psychology

The term "sports psychology" was introduced into scientific use by the Russian psychologist V.F. Pierre de Coubertin. In 1913, at the initiative of the International Olympic Committee in Lausanne (Switzerland), a congress on the psychology of sports was organized, and from that moment the science in question received official status. However, the poor development of sports did not contribute to the rapid development of science, which was dealt with only by individual scientists, mainly in the USA, Germany, and the USSR. In our country, the pioneers of sports psychology were A. P. Nechaev, who published in 1927 the monograph "Psychology of Physical Culture", A. Ts. Puni, ZI Chuchmarev, P. A. Rudik. In the pre-war years, the programs of the special course "Psychology of Sports" were developed for the institutes of physical culture.

The intensive development of sports psychology began in many countries after the Second World War. This was due to the growing prestige of the sport, as well as the struggle between two political systems- socialist and capitalist, striving to prove their advantage, including through sports achievements.

A little later, International Congresses on Sports Psychology began to be held regularly, in 1970 the International Journal of Sports Psychology was established, in the 60s of the 20th century, the European and North American Associations of Sports Psychologists were established.

In our country, in 1952 A. Ts.Puni defended his first doctoral dissertation on the psychology of sports, and then monographs on research in this branch of psychology appeared, the authors of which were G.M. Gagaeva, S. Ch. Gellershtein, A. A Lalayan, V. G. Norakidze, A. Ts. Puni, O. A. Chernikova. In subsequent years, many scientists made a great contribution to the development of sports psychology: O. V. Dashkevich, E. A. Kalinin, R. A. Piloyan, V. M. Pisarenko, A. V. Rodionov, O. A. Sirotin, V. A. Tolochek, I. P. Volkov, G. D. Gorbunov, T. T. Dzhamgarov, R. M. Zagainov, Yu. Ya. Kiselev, V. L. Marishchuk, A. N. Nikolaev, V. K Safonov, B.N.Smirnov, N. B. Stambulova, E. N. Surkov, Yu. L. Khanin, B. A. Vyatkin, A. D. Ganyushkin, A. A. Lalayan, Yu. A. Kolomeitsev and a lot others. For ten years now, psychologists have been trained at the Faculty of Psychology of St. Petersburg State University with a degree in Sports Psychology.

At present, the psychology of sports has become not only a theoretical, but also a practical discipline that provides significant assistance to athletes and coaches in their efforts to achieve high sports results.
