Towards a psychophysiological approach in physical activity, exercise, and sports, volume II
This Research Topic is the second volume of the article collection: "Towards a Psychophysiological Approach in Physical Activity, Exercise, and Sports". Please see the first volume here: https://www.frontiersin.org/research-topics/39747/towards-a-psychophysiological-approach-in-physical-activity-exercise-and-sports/magazine. In recent years, there has been an increase in interest in mental health disorders as a result of mediatic coverage of Olympic athletes’ mental health struggles, and also due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns. These phenomena helped to further exacerbate a problem already extensively present in sport and society. Therefore, applying a psychophysiological approach to p...
Towards a Psychophysiological Approach in Physical Activity, Exercise, and Sports
In recent years, there has been an increase in interest in mental health disorders as a result of mediatic coverage of Olympic athletes’ mental health struggles, and also due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns. These phenomena helped to further exacerbate a problem already extensively present in sport and society. Therefore, applying a psychophysiological approach to physical activity, exercise, and sports research has become very popular. Indeed, mental fatigue and mental disorders are not only psychological in origin, but also require an explanation from a psychophysiological perspective due to the effective interconnection between the psychological and physiological dimensions. Psychological variables can also influence performance and the psychophysiological system has a strong effect on the control of physical capacities. Moreover, pacing behaviour, decision-making, self-regulation, and effort perception can also explain the role of the brain in physical activity and exercise management. Thus, the aim of this Research Topic is to share the impact of a psychophysiological approach in physical activity, exercise and sports.
Exercise Physiology
Exercise physiology is one of the most researched sports sciences, with practical implications for health, well-being and sports performance. This book brings together emerging research in this area, presenting the main findings and criticisms, as well as considering the future of exercise physiology.
Twilight in Guararapes
The narrator, Ana Roiz, the daughter of a well-known journalist in the city of Recife in northeastern Brazil, accepts from among other choices a final internship, required to complete her degree in psychoanalysis from the state university, in the impoverished hamlet of Guararapes located in a scruffy pocket in the seaside hills nearby. Arriving, she experiences initial rejection from the sad-sack residents. Then she receives as a gift from the like-minded slightly older woman, who is the owner of a local cantina, a crystal ball given her by a traveling peddler. Anas new subjects/clients line up for a chance to gaze into it in fascination, and astounded, she proceeds to record a long series o...
New Perspectives in Fluid Dynamics
This book contains five chapters detailing significant advances in and applications of new turbulence theory and fluid dynamics modeling with a focus on wave propagation from arbitrary depths to shallow waters, computational modeling for predicting optical distortions through hypersonic flow fields, wind strokes over highway bridges, optimal crop production in a greenhouse, and technological appliance and performance concerns in wheelchair racing. We hope this book to be a useful resource to scientists and engineers who are interested in the fundamentals and applications of fluid dynamics.
Strength and Conditioning in Football: Driving Physical Performance through Research and Innovation
Modern sport depends on research and the advancement of science in order to achieve increments in performance and health promotion. This is particularly true for football, which is the most popular sport in the world. Frontiers in Frontiers in Physiology and in Sport and Active Living recognize the importance of strength and conditioning in football and the necessity to facilitate debate and discussion amongst the sport science community. This Research Topic entitled 'Strength and Conditioning in football. Driving physical performance through research and innovation' aims to highlight themes that foster debate and discussion in the high-performance football industry.
