Sport Psychology: Associate Editor at Performance Enhancement and Health
Chair of Sport Psychology member becomes an editorial member at the journal Performance Enhancement and Health.
Wanja Wolff joins the editorial team at the journal Performance Enhancement and Health. The journal “is an international, peer-reviewed journal that that critically explores the health and social implications of pharmacological, genetic, psychological, technological, and other enhancements of the human being. This multi-disciplinary journal examines the implications of performance enhancement on the human condition. Performance enhancement may be linked to productivity, identity, social capital or pleasure, while health is envisaged broadly as absence of disease, optimal functioning, and overall wellbeing.”
The scope of Performance Enhancement and Health aligns very well with some of the research that is conducted at the chair of sport psychology: We are interested in researching functional substance (ab)use from a self-regulatory perspective (click here to learn more). Thus, we are interested in forms of substance (ab)use, where individuals use substance as means (i.e., instruments) to achieve certain goals (i.e., improved performance).
