Theme 5: Sport Science
and Human Performance
 Reseachers
and examples of projects
As the title suggests, this theme represents the work of those working
in sports science and human performance. It is located within the department
of Physical Education, Sport and Leisure Studies (PESLS). The three main
sub-themes for the Sport Science and Human Performance theme are areas
to which all current Sports Science staff, and some of the Physical Education
staff contribute. The theme connects with other research in the School
through its emphasis on relationships between the scientific and pedagogical
applications of the research. 'Skill Acquisition', 'Physiological and Psychological
Responses and Rehabilitation', and 'Elite Performance' are sub-themes.
Each sub-theme encompasses 'human performance' as a goal of healthful living
rather than being limited to competitive sports performance.
