The V Congress of Psychology UCAM has come to an end.
For three days, sports psychologists, teachers, researchers, athletes, coaches, sports doctors and managers have gathered in different round tables and presentations.
There were two key ideas that have prevailed during all sessions: the valuation increasingly positive in the world of sport psychologists work done by teams and athletes and promising future of this discipline in the labor market.
Joaquín Dosil, professor at the University of Vigo who has worked with teams and athletes as Celta de Vigo or pilot Jorge Lorenzo, has offered the closing conference entitled 'Alto Mental Performance'.
Dosil offered during his speech the outlines of his work in sport: "The psychologist works to increase the performance of teams and athletes in sports psychology tools give athletes and teams so that they can face any situation." .
He also admitted that there are still coaches and professional athletes who are reluctant when hiring the services of a professional psychologist: "The high-level athlete that does not use the sport psychologist is because you do not know what we can do for him ".
In line with the central theme of his lecture, he explained the fundamental mission of the sport psychologist ". You have to be prepared for any situation and confront her That's peak mental performance."
Joaquín Dosil also avoided the debate about the intrusion suffering sport psychology. "There is a significant intrusion of 'coaches' because this area is not regularized Given this situation it is best to associate the 'coaching' to us, psychologists, because the 'coaching' works. Among the tools of sport psychology one is 'coaching'. What if I tell everyone is that you must be careful with those people who have communication skills but sell smoke " .
