#121 Dr Len Zaichkowsky and Dan Peterson – The Science Behind Decision Making Under Pressure

I’m so excited to have Dr Len Zaichkowsky and Dan Peterson back on the show. Len and Dan have just published “The Playmaker's Decisions: The Science of Clutch Plays, Mental Mistakes and Athlete Cognition” which focuses on the split-second decision-making process that produces both clutch plays and mental mistakes. This book is for coaches needing to sharpen their team's decisions under pressure, a parent who is trying to understand their child’s mental game or even a fan who has yelled at the TV wondering why their team breaks your heart, "The Playmaker’s Decisions" combines science and stories to shed light on the black box of athlete cognition.
