Abstract: Compared with the field of mass exercise and physical education,competitive sports have received more attention from sports psychology. A series of
sports psychological intervention techniques have been used in the Beijing Olympic Games, such as psychological countermeasures library, bio-feedback technology, psychological film and music, psychological website, psychological testing for athletes and rapid adjustment of multi-functional service vehicles. Leading technologies in the psychological field such as electroencephalography (EEG),event-related potential (ERP) and computer quadrant map (EEQG) are used to diagnose the mental state or training effect of athletes during exercise. The rise of positive psychology has a rich theoretical and applied field, and also enriches the theory and application fields of modern sports psychology. Sports psychology has seen many new trends in the 20th century, and smooth experience is one of them. In the field of competitive sports, the connection between psychological monitoring and sports practice is the closest. Psychological monitoring is also moving towards a systematic and specialized direction. It is suggested that the research results of sports psychology that have been obtained can be applied more in future practice.
