Sports Science and Medicine: intervention strategy

intervention technique

One of the various cognitive and physiological strategies for altering existing levels of anxiety, arousal, and self-confidence. Intervention strategies are used by sport psychologists to modify particular psychological sets or thought processes that may be inhibiting an athlete's performance. Through techniques such as biofeedback, behaviour modification, anxiety management training, and attentional control training, an athlete can be trained to identify and modify undesirable psychological responses that may occur before and during competition.
