Applied Sport Psychology – Our work is different! | Oliver Stoll | TEDxUniHalle

Oliver Stoll resolves the picture of the psychologist with his patients sitting on a sofa talking about their problems. As a sport psychologist he works where his patients are: on the road, inside the water, cycling, running, training. That job might generate a lot of weekend work and travelling, but he also tells us why it is worth it.

Oliver Stoll studied sports science, psychology and pedagogy at the University of Giessen as well as at the College of Charleston (S.C., USA). He became a Dr. phil. in the field of sports science at the University of Giessen. In 1995 he joined the University of Leipzig as a scientific assistant. With the focus on sports psychology and sports education, he became professor of sports science at the University of Halle in 2002. He mainly researches with "perfectionism", with the flow-experiences in sports and with the development and evaluation of sports psychological interventions in competitive sports. Furthermore, he developed the first university master's program in sports psychology in Germany.
