Sport
We analyze the role of psychological factors that influence athletic performance and the well-being of individuals and groups.
Psychology, performance, and well-being
Sport is a formative and developmental experience. For this reason, the quality of sport environment — inclusive, safe, and motivating — is essential for the balanced development of the person.
We investigate the extent to which environmental factors influence athletes’ performance and overall well-being across different age groups.
We develop interventions aimed at preventing burnout and sport dropout, while promoting a healthy balance between sport and personal life.
The role of sport environment
Psychological factors have a deep impact on sports performance and on athletes’ psychological and physical health.
Using an integrated approach, we explore how motivation, self-efficacy, resilience, and group dynamics shape both individual and team sport experiences.
From assessment to enhancement
We have developed specific psychometric tools to measure individual and collective efficacy beliefs, adapted to different sports disciplines.
We design programs to improve emotional regulation and stress management skills. We also work on pathways aimed at strengthening motivation and enhancing cognitive processes.
We operate in both professional and amateur sports settings, recognizing the potential of sport to promote inclusion and empowerment.
