Thesis (Psy.D.)--Alliant International University, San Francisco Bay, 2003.

This conceptual analytic paper critically evaluates three approaches developed to enhance athletic performance: anxiety management, imagery, and self-talk. Each psychological intervention was systematically evaluated, followed by critical analysis of how each intervention has been applied. Suggestions are made to help researchers incorporate more variables into each intervention and in the process help render the interventions more inclusive in their application.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This conceptual analytic paper critically evaluates three approaches developed to enhance athletic performance: anxiety management, imagery, and self-talk. Each psychological intervention was systematically evaluated, followed by critical analysis of how each intervention has been applied. Suggestions are made to help researchers incorporate more variables into each intervention and in the process help render the interventions more inclusive in their application.
520 $a While, in general, anxiety management, imagery, and self-talk strategies have been shown to augment athletic performance, there are a number of limitations in the application of these interventions. For example, little is known regarding the psychobiological mechanisms underlying post treatment behavioral change. In addition, these athletic enhancement methods remain at an early stage of development with outcome studies being limited by the lack of adequate experimental controls (e.g., quantifying the separate influence of the various components of each intervention strategy) and by the large sample size (the author of this dissertation will show how using small sample sizes will help reduce the equivocal results of research on sports). Additionally, important variables that likely influence athletic performance (e.g., motivation, limiting physiological factors, degree of self-esteem, extent of public exposure) are typically not included in outcome research. Finally, practitioners have applied these interventions to solve global problems (e.g., general performance anxiety) rather than tailoring these approaches for individual purposes (e.g., some athletes may benefit from moderate pregame nervousness). A number of specific recommendations to improve athletic performance are made.
520 $a It is argued that idiographic measurements of athletic performance be included in sports psychology research to better illuminate the mechanisms by which athletic performance interventions improve the physical execution of skilled motor behaviors. The goal of this work is to be helpful to sports psychologists and athletes as they seek ways to improve athletic performance.
