Transfer of Sport Psychological Knowledge to Other Industries

Implications of sport psychology research on improving performance under pressure are unlimited. The same principles may be transferred to other industries, for example, to surgeons completing difficult surgical operations, professional drivers during peak traffic, police officers in risky action, musicians performing in front of a large audience or paramedics called to crash scene.

We transfer sport psychology knowledge to healthcare and performing arts, counsel musicians, doctors, and emergency services personnel, and cooperate in simulation-based medical education.
