ABSTRACT
Sport psychology is a diverse field. For example, applied sport psychologists work in a range of performance domains, from business to military settings (Gould, 2002), and are increasingly called upon to work with child and adolescent athletes (Knight & Holt, 2012). Some provide services to ‘at risk’ youth (e.g., children who live in low-income or inner-city neighborhoods) across different types of sport and physical activity settings (Danish & Nellen, 1997). On the other hand, others go into research and spend only a small proportion of their time engaging in applied work.
