We find that it is our duty and privilege as a CPA Section to promote the research of our members and relay it to the clinicians who will apply it. We hope to showcase in every issue of our <em><strong>Perseverance <\/strong><\/em>Newsletter at least two new articles authored or co-authored by Section members in peer-reviewed journals. Clinical cases studies are also welcome and may be featured in our Clinical Spotlight Column. Active members are invited to present a 1-2 pages synthesis of their research with the opportunity to discuss additional concept.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: bold\">Members of the Sport and Exercise Psychology section are welcome to submit their newly accepted papers for consideration in the Research Spotlight column by sending the manuscript to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"mailto:sport.exercise.cpa@gmail.com\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sport.exercise.cpa@gmail.com<\/a>. Applications will be reviewed by the editor and designated reviewers.<\/p>\n<p><!--\n\n<p>We are proud to announce <strong>Dr. Robert Vallerand<\/strong> as a CPA-Section co-sponsored <strong>Invited Speaker<\/strong> for the CPA 77th Annual Convention in Victoria, BC June 9-11, 2016. The date of this presentation is June 9, 2016.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Vallerand will be presenting on the following topic: &ldquo;<em style=\"color: #a41313\">Passion in sport and exercise: Theory &amp; Research<\/em>&rdquo;. The following abstract encompasses his intended presentation:<\/p>\n\n\n<center>&quot;<em>Passion in sport and exercise: Theory and Research<\/em>&quot;<br \/>\nRobert J. Vallerand, Ph.D.<br \/>\nLaboratoire de Recherche sur le Comportement Social<br \/>\nUniversit&eacute; du Qu&eacute;bec &agrave; Montr&eacute;al <\/center>\n\n\n<p>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<ul>What is passion? How does it affect our lives? Vallerand and his colleagues (2003; Vallerand, 2015) have proposed a recent conceptualization of passion, namely the Dualistic Model of Passion. Passion is defined as a strong inclination or desire for a self-defining activity that we love, value, and spend a considerable amount of time on. Two types of passion are proposed: a harmonious and an obsessive passion. Obsessive passion is involved when people feel that they can&rsquo;t help themselves and have to surrender to their desire to engage in the passionate activity. It is as if the activity controlled the person. Obsessive passion results from a controlled internalization (Deci &amp; Ryan, 2000) of the activity in the person&rsquo;s identity. On the other hand, harmonious passion refers to a strong inclination for the activity that nevertheless remains under the person&rsquo;s control. The person can choose when to and when not to engage in the activity, thus preventing conflict from arising between activity engagement in the passionate activity and other life activities. Harmonious passion results from an autonomous internalization of the activity in identity. In this address, I review research that reveals that harmonious passion toward sport and physical activity is typically associated with adaptive outcomes while obsessive passion is related to less adaptive and at times maladaptive outcomes. These findings have been obtained with respect to a number of affective, cognitive, mental and physical health, relationships, and performance variables with diverse populations. I also address the role of personality and social psychological variables in the development of passion. Finally, some new directions for future research are proposed.\n    \n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n    \n\n<h4>BIO<\/h4>\n\n\n    \n\n<p>Professor Vallerand is recognized as a leading international expert on motivational processes where he has developed theories dealing with intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, as well as passion for activities. He has published 7 books and approximately 300 scientific articles and book chapters. His research has been cited extensively (over 30,000 citations with a h-index of 80, GS) and he has received several millions ($) in research grants. Professor Vallerand has presented a number of International Keynote addresses and has given colloquia at more than 60 different universities. He has supervised to completion a number of graduate students, including 20 who are now university professors across Canada and Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n    \n\n<p>Professor Vallerand has received numerous awards and honors from over a dozen learned societies, including being elected a Fellow of the Canadian Psychological Association (and Fellow of the Sport and Exercise Psychology Section), the American Psychological Association (as well as Fellow of Divisions 8, 9, 20, and 47), the Association for Psychological Science, the Society for Personality and Social Psychology, the Royal Society of Canada, and many others. He has also received the Adrien Pinard Career Award from the Quebec Society for Research in Psychology, the Donald O. Hebb Career Award from the Canadian Psychological Association (the highest research awards in psychology in Quebec and Canada, respectively), and the Sport Science Award from the International Olympic Committee.<\/p>\n\n\n    \n\n<p>In addition, Robert Vallerand has been a very important actor in the existence of the Sports Section. He was a Chair of the Sport Psychology Section of CPA from 1984-1986, Co-Chair in 1986-1987. He was the President of CPA and associated President Elect and Past President from 2005-2008. In 2010, he was the Conference Chair for the 2nd World Congress of Positive Psychology, and Acting President of the IAAP (International Applied Positive Psychology Association). In 2015, he became the Canada Research Chair I at the Universit&eacute; du Qu&eacute;bec &agrave; Montr&eacute;al on Motivational Processes and Optimal Functioning.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n\n<p>We are very excited to come together on this initiative and we have also planned networking activities along with a complimentary Section convention program. We will be giving out our CPA Sport &amp; Exercise Poster Award based on those presenting at this conference, winner announced during the Poster Session and at the AGM. Specific information, including times and locations, will be announced soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>We hope you will be able to attend this and other convention opportunities in beautiful Victoria, British Columbia at the 77th CPA Convention in June 2016!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<p>For information on the Pre-convention workshops, <a href=\"\/aboutcpa\/cpasections\/sportandexercise\/sportpsychologytraining\">click here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n--><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/sections\/sportandexercise\/\">HOME<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><!--more--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":3820,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-3860","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3860","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3860"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3860\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":18171,"href":"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3860\/revisions\/18171"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3820"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cpa.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3860"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
