RESEARCH TOPICS
My previous works or the current ones examine the psychological processes involved in the
production of sport, academic or professional performance. Stress and coping processes are central
topics of my research activities. Coping is a multidimensional construct that represents the cognitive
and behavioral efforts, and conscious strategies that individuals use to deal with current or anticipated
negative, demanding or challenging events. The principal purpose of my research is to understand
how and why individuals adopt adaptive behaviors or not in achievement situations in sport, education
and work contexts. The questions guiding my research concern the identification of mechanisms
involved in the adoption of coping strategies, leading to or impeding the performance but also the
psychological and physical well-being. Based on the transactional model of stress and coping
(Lazarus & Folkman, 1984, Lazarus, 1999), my research therefore tries to identify individual and
situational factors underlying the coping strategies used in achievement situation. On the whole, my
work aims to further understand how coping strategies may contribute to the achievement of

!
performance situation, through the adoption of adaptive behaviors. My studies therefore focus on the
complex relationship between motivational processes and situational demands of the social
environment in predicting individual differences in the use of coping strategies in these contexts.
The identification of specific personal resources leading to or impeding the adoption of
adaptive coping strategies in achievement situation,
The identification of specific demands of achievement situations influencing or hindering
the adoption of adaptive coping strategies in such situations,
The relationship between coping strategies and performance, and psychological well-
being, physical health,
Mental skills’ profiles of elite athletes and their relationships with performance and well-
being,
Development and evaluation of mental skills training program (e.g. goal-setting
intervention, mindfulness) for elite athletes
Keywords: stress, coping, performance, motivational processes, mental training program efficacy
