Mindful Sport Performance Enhancement

Keith A. Kaufman · 2018
91/100
👍 Worth It

Kaufman, Glass, and Pineau's 2018 APA-published manual presents MSPE — Mindful Sport Performance Enhancement — as a structured six-session program grounded in the established MBSR and MBCT research traditions. The practical design is a genuine asset: session scripts, handouts, and educational content make this immediately usable by sport psychologists and coaches rather than a purely theoretical text. A Springer Mindfulness journal review affirmed it as a comprehensive resource. The APA publication stamp signals peer-reviewed credibility. The caveat is audience: this is a practitioner manual, not a consumer self-help book, and readers without background in sport psychology or mindfulness research will find the framing dense. For the right professional audience, it is a rigorous and well-supported resource.
