Sport Excellence Series With special guest: Dr. Jean Côté



Dr. Côté completed his doctorate in 1993 at the University of Ottawa. His

research interests focus on the developmental and psychosocial factors that

affect sport and physical activity, performance and participation. He takes

special interest in the complex interaction of children, parents and coaches in

the development of talent and in the achievement of personal excellence. Jean

is currently the Director and a Professor in the School of Kinesiology and

Health Studies at Queen’s University.


“My favorite area of research is sport - particularly the developmental and

psychosocial factors that affect sport performance and participation. I get

really excited about a research project when I can see that it can be translated

to actual policies for children’s sport.”
