Editorial

I shall use this editorial to express my mixed feelings about the COVID-19 pandemic that affected our lives strongly, personally and professionally, in very different ways for over two years. Going back to our schools, colleges and universities, without even wearing facemasks, sometimes feel a bit unfamiliar. This unfamiliarity also touches upon the way we think and act in our daily work. We are virtually standing at a crossroads: are we returning to our previous routines or moving ahead by incorporating our new pandemic-related experiences into our routines?

Quality of Life: The Interplay between Human Behaviour, Technology and the Environment

Quality of life serves a reference against which you can measure the various domains of your own life or that of other individuals, and that can change over time. This definition of the World Health Organization encompasses many elements of daily living, including features of the individual and the environment around us, which can either be the social environment, the built environment, or other environmental aspects. This is one of the rationales for the special issue on “Quality of Life: The Interplay between Human Behaviour, Technology and the Environment”. This special issue is a joint project by the Centre of Expertise Health Innovation of the Hague University of Applied Sciences in The Netherlands. The main focus of this Special Issue is how optimising the interplay between people, the environment, and technology can enhance people’s quality of life. The focus of the contributions in this special issue is on the person or end‐user and his or her environment, both the physical, social, and digital environment, and on the interaction between (1) people, (2) health, care, and systems, and (3) technology. Recent advances in technology offer a wide range of solutions that support a healthy lifestyle, good quality of life, and effective and efficient healthcare processes, for a large number of end‐users, both patients/clients from minus 9 months until 100+ years of age, as well as practitioners/physicians. The design of new services and products is at the roots of serving the quality of life of people.

Connecting to the Muses

We set out to bring into being a Creative Methods issue to inform and support researchers, practitioners, educators, and those they serve. We did so with what William Blake called “a firm persuasion” (Whyte, 2001, p. 3), and in the process of expanding the vidence-base for creative methods in guidance and counselling we are affirmed that this is both essential and rewarding. In our call for papers, we identified a number of reasons that creative methods are essential to guidance and counselling; for instance, they reintroduce playfulness, which is an often-undervalued capacity of humans that can help create space to respond to serious questions. Creative methods also allow us to be less resistant to so-called “negative” feelings and they let us break rank with the rational linear thinking, planning, efficiency and goal-orientation that has dominated policy and some practice discourses. In essence, this has supressed the creative, sensory and feeling side of human needs and behaviours. Indeed a common theme that appeared in all the articles is the importance of making room for the affective, before connecting that with more cognitive articulations. “This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in "British Journal of Guidance and Counselling" on 05/14/16, available online: https://doi.org/10.1080/03069885.2018.1442917.

Ethics as Creativity in Design (editorial)

In this track we therefore welcomed papers that investigate or show how incorporating ethical reflection in the design process can foster creative solutions for future use of technology. Or the other way around: how design can cater for a creative approach to ethical deliberation. Completely in line with the theme of our track, the submitted papers show that there are multiple other creative ways to connect ethics and design.

Editorial overview: Trending Topics in Sport Psychology

Section snippetsClosing observationsThe overview of the articles presented in this special issue demonstrates that sport psychology does indeed represent a very broad domain of investigation and application. When reading the articles, one will observe that a spectrum of different approaches are applied, ranging from approaches that lean toward the ‘hard’ sciences (such as the experimental study of perceptual anticipation), to approaches that lean toward the ‘soft’ sciences (such as the descriptive study of problems facingPeter Jan Beek, Ph.D., is Full Professor of Coordination Dynamics and the Dean of the Faculty of Behavioural and Movement Sciences at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. His research focuses on the control and coordination of human movement and changes therein as a function of development, learning and rehabilitation. Recurrent topics in his research are the perceptual guidance of movements and the role of practice, feedback and instruction in skill acquisition.
