| Summary |
"Anticipation and Decision-Making in Sport is the first book to identify the underlying science behind anticipation and decision-making in sport, enhancing our scientific understanding of these phenomena and helping practitioners to develop interventions to facilitate the more rapid acquisition of the perceptual-cognitive skills that underpin these judgements. Adopting a multi-disciplinary approach--encompassing research from psychology, biomechanics, neuroscience, physiology, computing science and performance analysis--the book is divided into three primary sections. The first provides a comprehensive analysis of the processes and mechanisms underpinning anticipation and skilled perception in sport. The second's focus shifts towards exploring the science of decision-making in sport, while the final section's is more applied, outlining how the key skills that impact on anticipation and decision-making may be facilitated through various training interventions"-- Provided by publisher |

| Notes |
A. Mark Williams is Chair of Health, Kinesiology, and Recreation at the University of Utah, USA. His research interests focus on the neural and psychological mechanisms underpinning the acquisition and development of expertise, with a particular focus on anticipation and decision making. He has published more than200 journal articles in peer-reviewed outlets and written more than 80 book chapters. He has co-authored and edited 15 books and delivered more than 200 keynote and invited lectures in over 30 countries. He is a Fellow of the European College of Sports Science, the British Association of Sport and Exercise Science, the National Academy of Kinesiology, and the British Psychological Society. He is Editor-in-Chief of several academic journals. Robin C. Jackson is Senior Lecturer in Sport Psychology at Loughborough University, UK. His research on perceptual-cognitive expertise focusses on attentional processes in sports performance, notably in regard to anticipation and the perception of deceptive intent. He is also interested in the implications of this research fordesigning training protocolsto develop skills that are robust under pressure. He has more than 50 peer-reviewed papers and book chapters. He is a founding member of the British Psychological Society's Division of Sport and Exercise Psychology, and the Expertise and Skill Acquisition Network special interest group. Heserves on the editorial board for several sport psychology journals and is Executive Editor of the Journal of Sports Sciences (Social and Behavioural Sciences) |
