Zusammenfassung

Wie entwickeln sich junge Talente zu erfolgreichen Spitzensportlern? Diese Frage steht im Mittelpunkt des Artikels. Er arbeitet die Definition von „Talent“ und zentrale Prämissen von Konzepten zur Talententwicklung und -förderung heraus. Der Stand der Forschung wird zusammengefasst bezüglich der Leistungsentwicklung, des Trainings und anderer Sporttätigkeiten sowie psychosozialer Einflüsse im Laufe der Sportkarriere. Daran anknüpfend wird die Anlage und Effektivität von Programmen zur Talenterkennung und -förderung analysiert. Insgesamt sind einige Prämissen der Konzepte zur Talententwicklung und -förderung empirisch noch nicht überzeugend untermauert. Als förderlicher Faktor kristallisiert sich aber die Variabilität früher Trainings- und Wettkampferfahrungen heraus.

Dieser Beitrag ist Teil der Sektion Grundthemen des Sports, herausgegeben vom Teilherausgeber Michael Krüger, innerhalb des Handbuchs Sport und Sportwissenschaft, herausgegeben von Arne Güllich und Michael Krüger.
