Deliberate practice: Is that all it takes to become an expert? (2014, unknown): “We conclude that deliberate practice is not nearly as important for explaining individual differences in performance as Ericsson and colleagues have argued it is, and review evidence for other factors thatmay also directly contribute.”
Deliberate practice and acquisition of expert performance: a general overview. (2008, background): “Similarly, athletes who push themselves overload their muscles, which enact gene expressions that lead to physiologic and anatomic changes, which increase their strength and power.(36,37) Several studies and reviews(23,24) report a consistent relationship between the amount and quality of solitary a”
Insights from Ecological Psychology and Dynamical Systems. Theory can underpin a philosophy of coaching. (2009, background): “…will have the dual effect of helping to create 'love' for the sport while at the same time developing the integrated physical, technical, tactical and psychological skills needed for competitive success (Bloom, 1985; Chappell, 2004; Cote et al., 2007; Ericsson, 2007; Jannelle & Hillman, 2003).”
The role of ecological constraints on expertise development (2010, background): “Although this apparent power law characteristic of practice has been exposed as an artefact of group analyses, more recently, it has been argued that the amount of deliberate practice – intense practice requiring concentrated effort to specifically improve performance – is predictive of expertise at”
Deliberate Practice Spells Success (2011, background): “In many other domains, worldclass performers have been shown to acquire their skills through thousands of hours of solitary deliberate practice, effortful activities designed to improve performance (Ericsson, 2006, 2007, 2009; Ericsson, Krampe, & Tesch-Römer, 1993; Ericsson & Ward, 2007).”
20 years later: deliberate practice and the development of expertise in sport (2014, background): “…hours by years into career (e.g., Baker, Côté, & Abernethy, 2003a; Hodges & Starkes, 1996), while others have reported them by age (Law, Côté, & Ericsson, 2007), while still others have reported cumulative practice by age (e.g., Berry, Abernethy, & Côté, 2008; Moesch, Elbe, Hauge, & Wikman,…”
Nonsense, common sense, and science of expert performance: Talent and individual differences (2014, background): “More recently, Ericsson (2007) stated that “… it is possible to account for the development of elite performance among healthy children without recourse to unique talent (genetic endowment) — excepting the innate determinants of body size.” and “Consequently, the development of expert performance…”
Why expert performance is special and cannot be extrapolated from studies of performance in the general population: A response to criticisms. (2014, background): “(2014-this issue) criticizes my proposal (Ericsson, 2007a) for how the engagement in a given activity can modify the expression of genes leading to a different phenotype, which may influence performance.”
The rise of the underdog? The relative age effect reversal among Canadian-born NHL hockey players: A reply to Nolan and Howell (2012, background): “Second, these players simply have more exposure to competitive play and training – secondary effects – which contribute to more time for deliberate practice (Baker and Logan, 2007; Barnsley et al., 1985; Ericsson, 2007; Musch and Gondin, 2001).”
The role of deliberate practice and play in career progression in sport: the early engagement hypothesis (2009, unknown): “, 1993), medicine (Ericsson, 2004), and academia (Simonton, 1999, 2000) (for reviews, see Ericsson, 2006; Ericsson, 2007; Ericsson, Roring, & Nandagopal, 2007).”
Circumstantial development and athletic excellence: The role of date of birth and birthplace (2009, background): “As a result, earlier-born, more mature individuals are more likely to dominate youth sport, be identified as ‘‘outstanding’’, and be selected by scouts and coaches for representative sport competition (Ericsson, 2007).”
Burnout and Its Relations with Basic Psychological Needs and Motivation among Athletes: A Systematic Review and Meta#Analysis (2013, background): “A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis It could take more than 10 years for athletes to acquire expertise or achieve successes in sport (Ericsson, 2007).”
