| dc.description.abstract | Research on athletic talent has evolved from talent detection to talent development with both perspectives focusing on the individual athlete. This individual focus has been mirrored in the work of coaches and sport psychology practitioners who have primarily focused on athletes’ sport-specific and psychological skills. In contrast, the holistic ecological approach (HEA) to talent development acknowledges the role of the overall environment and mirrors the complexity of talent development in the real world. The HEA highlights two interconnected ways of analyzing athletic talent development environments. First, there is a focus on the structure of the environment, particularly the roles and cooperation of key persons. Second, there is a focus on the organizational culture of the team. Exploratory case studies of successful and less successful environments in different sports have shown that while each environment is unique, they also share a number of features, including: proximal role models; an integration of efforts among the different agents (family, coaches, management, etc.); inclusive training groups; a focus on long-term development, and a “strong and coherent” organizational culture. While this research has its roots in Scandinavia, studies from a broader range of contexts have emerged. In recent years, the HEA has branched out and been used in the study of new areas. As an example, a group of European researchers has developed the framework to accommodate the study of dual-career development environments across Europe. Another example is the study of a basketball talent development environment in an underserved community in the USA, which demonstrated how such an environment has unique challenges and opportunities compared with more affluent environments. On the environment macro level, a third example is studies of successful collaboration between national sports federations, local authorities, and clubs to promote local talent development. From an applied perspective, the HEA calls for sports psychologists to be contextually sensitive and aim to develop not the mental skills of individual athletes but also integrated and coherent environments. Recently, the HEA has provided a basis for designing contextualized interventions to improve talent development environments in local clubs and all the way to national-level policies. In the current presentation, I will provide a status on the talent development environment research and a taste of how the field is evolving. | pt_PT |
