This handbook arose from necessity in Italy, and all around the world, in
educational, reeducational, rehabilitative, preventive, sport, school,
business, health-clinical and prison contexts, to have a scientific
theoretical/practical reasoned textual tool well-organized and complete to
educate and reeducate with the help of chess. The goal is to design, structure,
propose and implement psychoeducational projects through the game of chess
and chess-related context. So this is not a book devoted exclusively to
chessplayers, because here we are not focusing on teaching chess itself, because
we are not so much interested in chess didactics and in chess theory, rather than in
metacognitive, cognitive, affective, relational and social aspects associated
with chess game situations, which can be promoted not only while playing at a
table, but also through interdisciplinary, problem solving and decision making
processes, narrative and psychomotion and socialization acts in groups on giant
chessboards.
Therefore this handbook is meant as an intrument of action-research for teachers, educators, psychologists, psychomotor
therapists, psychiatrists, child psychiatrist, trainers and practitioners of psychology with the aim to educate and reeducate
promoting healthy growth and preventing mental and social problems while focusing on innovative proposals in the fields of
psychology, pedagogy and educational science through game and sport. The handbook's value, unprecedented in the world in
terms of organization, completeness and scientific contents, has been acknowledged and certified by 15 prestigious
nationaland internationalscientificand sporting authorities.
The book is divided into 2 sections: the first section covers Theoretical/scientific foundations and consists of 9 chapters, while
