Despite the prevalence of behavioral research conducted through genetic studies, there is an absence of literature pertaining to the genetics of motor behavior. Genetics and the Psychology of Motor Performance is the first book to integrate cutting-edge genetic research into the study of the psychological aspects of motor learning and control.The book’s central line of enquiry revolves around the extent to which psychological factors central to motor proficiency – including personality, emotion, self-regulation, motivation, and perceptual-cognitive skills – are acquired or inherited. It explains how these factors affect motor performance, distilling the latest research into their genetic underpinnings and, in doing so, assessing the magnitude of the role genetics plays in the stages of motor development, from early proficiency through to expertise.Written by leading experts in the genetics of human performance and exercise psychology, and thoroughly illustrated throughout, Genetics and the Psychology of Motor Performance is a crucial resource for any upper-level student or researcher seeking a deeper understanding of motor learning. It is an important book for anyone studying or working in exercise psychology, motor development, exercise genetics, or exercise physiology more broadly.

Written by veterans in the field, Case Studies in Applied Psychophysiology is the first text to present case studies from practitioners utilizing these techniques. Each case study has been systematically recorded and presents readers with a comprehensive overview of each approach. The case studies demonstrate not only the variety of approaches available to practitioners, but also the unique tailoring of techniques and procedures that seasoned practitioners implement to help clients achieve their goals. The primary focus is on individuals from non-clinical (i.e. not medically related) populations, but two case studies describe neurofeedback interventions with individuals suffering from traumatic brain injuries. Case Studies in Applied Psychophysiology is a useful introduction to the field, as well as a road map for those looking to incorporate these techniques into their own psychology, sports medicine, physiology, performance psychology, and counseling practices.
