Abstract
The integration of neurosciences and sport psychology has revitalized the study of cognitive and emotional mechanisms in achieving peak athletic performance and preventing burnout. Recent advancements in applied neuroscience, including wearable body/brain-sensing devices, are of particular interest to research and professional practice in exercise and sport sciences. These technologies aid in understanding and evaluating sensorimotor and cognitive functions crucial for athletic performance. Sport neuroscience is advancing with the development of neurocognitive empowerment protocols, combining mental training, cognitive-behavioural techniques, and performance testing with neuroscientific devices. This paper introduces the theoretical background and potential of applying neuroscientific models to empowerment in exercise and sport science, presenting examples of protocols aimed at optimizing athletes’ performance. These protocols highlight a threefold focus on individual, dyadic, and collective performance.
