The Psychology of Drag Racing
Disclaimer: While based on facts about drag racing, this page contains the personal views and opinions of one racer - Michael Beard
Here are three research papers that I wrote for my Educational Psychology class (ED302 - Professor Zook) while I was at Bucknell University that relate to the driver's mental perception of drag racing. I feel that the studies helped my driving. Check them out.
Learning Analysis papers
- Problem Solving - how I improved my driving
- Attribution Theory - develop a winning attitude!
- Analysis of a Learning Environment - inside the drag racer's world
