The Role of Self and Adaptation in Learning and Development: Chasing Excellence (Rodriguez Daniel)(Paperback)

This book introduces readers to Psychoadaptation - a general model of change that stresses the importance of experiencing disequilibrium in the development of a healthy Self - and applies it to a range of examples across the academic, sport and health domains. Built upon his studies of human development and learning, Daniel Rodriguez offers an overview of a model of change with a specific focus on the development of self and conceptions of self. The author begins by focusing on academic topics such as conducting research, teaching, and being a student, before highlighting examples from sport and health. With a clear and engaging tone, each chapter highlights how the theory behind Psychoadaptation can be applied across a variety of contexts and in the modern world. The result is a solid balance of scientific theory and practical application that readers can relate to their own
