Dr. Sara Kramers, a post-doctoral fellow at UBC School of Kinesiology, will be honored with the Young Scientist Award in the Sport Psychology category at the upcoming Canadian Society for Psychomotor Learning and Sport Psychology Conference in Winnipeg, Manitoba. Dr. Kramer’s doctoral research focused on the developing critical praxes of competitive sport coaches, specifically their ability to reflect on social issues occurring in their sport contexts and take confident action. The coaches’ experiences were detailed using creative analytical practices, such as creative nonfiction and vignettes, while Dr. Kramers documented her own reflective journey through an autoethnography.
Congratulations to Dr. Kramers on this well-deserved recognition!
