In my (limited) experience is that exceptional stops stamina drops and world-renowned gives a slight boost. Levels 1 to 5 just slows it down. As you asked however I don't believe anyone has ever collected data to determine the coefficients.

that's not a sports psychologist, that's the nutritionist

My bad, but again no one has collected any substantial data to determine the coefficients. I wouldn't expect that much of an increase in weekly minutes for good game shape for the money your paying. I would just maintain good stamina throughout the season

I have level 5 and doctor with speciality massage. In the first week of the season three of my players had more than 80min and has level 8 game shape. I will see what happens this week with the same minutes. Otherwise with good minutes and level 4 psyhologist I had almost every player on 9 or good 8 game shape last season

How much better/worse is an advanced than a competent or superior?
I've always seen people post coefficients for training ability on trainers, so have people discovered similar things for Sports Psychologists?

If so, what is worth it for a team competing at a high level? What about B3 teams?

I don't think anyone has ever come up with those coefficients.

As a rule of thumb, I'd suggest having an advanced during the regular season and a superior for POffs or BBB round of 16. Anyway, if your salaries aren't too high, you can opt for a superior all the time. It's definitely a worthy investment.

I've had a superior (5) one for a while now, and i'm pretty satisfied with the results. Granted i also have a massage doctor and for the most part i keep good minutes distribution during the week.

Now i can't speak to the difference between 4 and 5, as i've never had an advanced psychologist, but overall i think having a psychologist is definitely worth the investment for a higher level team.

For example, i have a player with 9 stamina, who alongside the 5 psychologist and massage doctor has been able to maintain or improve 8/9 game shape when playing 80-82 minutes within a week multiple times. This is an extreme case though, so take it for what it's worth. With 88 minutes (one situation) he went from 9 to 8 with the same conditions.

I'm not sure if it has been studied enough, but stamina plays a role too, when it comes to "overplaying" players in a given week. That being said, the "benefits" are a few minutes of game time. Don't expect miracles if you go above 100 minutes in the given week.

To generalize, i feel like the psychologist alongisde the massage doctor has made "80 minutes" feel like "75 minutes" in game shape language.
