About
Lara's PhD research looked at creating coach education resources that draw on the science of positive psychology, self-determination theory (SDT), and achievement goal theory (AGT). One aspect of Lara's research includes autonomy-support and controlling coaching. The infographic below summarises the coaching behaviours linked to these two concepts. These are covered in the Growth-Focused Sports Coaching (G-FSC) section of this website. This is password protected as it is currently being used for research purposes.
