Stein Menting is a researcher at the University of Groningen specializing in sports science and adolescent athletic development. Their work focuses on pacing behavior mechanisms, cognitive function during exercise, and competitive dynamics in youth sports.
Research interests center on pacing behavior development in adolescents, examining how task experience and competitors influence self-regulation of effort. Key areas include time perception alterations during exercise, drafting strategies in speed skating, and longitudinal pacing patterns in swimmers. Their fingerprint reveals strong connections to Analysis of Variance, Cognitive Function, and Social Environment psychology.
Recent publications demonstrate significant academic impact with multiple high-visibility studies covered by 63 news outlets and cited across social media platforms. The 2023 PhD thesis Picking up the pace: the development of pacing behaviour during adolescence established foundational work in this field.
