Book The Effect of a Brief Mindfulness Intervention on Free throw Shooting Performance

Download or read book The Effect of a Brief Mindfulness Intervention on Free throw Shooting Performance written by Nathan James Wolch and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pressure situations in sport can be a source of anxiety for athletes (Craft, Magyar, Becker, & Feltz, 2003). Research indicates that a brief mindfulness training can improve math performance under pressure (Brunye et al., 2013); however, no known studies have examined the effects of mindfulness practice on an athletic performance under pressure. Therefore, this experiment investigated the effects of a brief mindfulness training on basketball free-throw shooting under pressure. Participants were 32 college-aged (Mage = 21.29), male competitive basketball players. Participants shot 20 free-throws in a low-pressure phase, then were pair-matched by free-throws made and randomly assigned to mindfulness (n = 16) or control (n = 16) conditions. Pressure was induced before participants listened to a 15-minute mindfulness or history of basketball recording. Next, free-throws made and free-throw shot quality were recorded for 20 free-throws. A mixed ANOVA revealed that during the high-pressure phase, the experimental groups' free-throw shooting average (M = 70.6%) was not statistically significantly different from the control groups' (M = 61.6%). Results of an ANCOVA revealed that the mindfulness group's shot quality was higher than the control group's during the high-pressure phase and approached a statistically significant difference when controlling for trait mindfulness (F = 2.33, p = .051, Ƞp2 = .13). During the high-pressure phase, the mindfulness group reported statistically significantly lower levels of cognitive anxiety (t = 2.06, p = .048) and somatic anxiety (t = 2.67, p = .014) than the control group. Although the brief mindfulness intervention did not have a statistically significant effect on performance, the findings are discussed in terms of practical significance. The mindfulness group's significantly lower anxiety indicates that mindfulness training may improve athletes' subjective experience during pressure situations.

Book Re imagining Motor Imagery  Optimizing Attentional Focus to Improve Basketball Free Throw Shooting Performance

Download or read book Re imagining Motor Imagery Optimizing Attentional Focus to Improve Basketball Free Throw Shooting Performance written by Kyle R. Milley and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is interest in developing efficacious imagery interventions to improve sport performance. However, the current literature has not examined how attentional focus may be manipulated within imagery. Previous research has found that an external attentional focus is more beneficial to motor performance outcomes than an internal attentional focus. The present study integrated mindfulness and flow into a modified imagery script to promote an external attentional focus during a free throw shooting task. This approach was termed attention-driven imagery and was compared to a technique comparison condition with an internal attentional focus. Twenty-six male and female university basketball players completed both conditions in a counterbalanced within-subject design. Free throw shooting performance was hypothesized to be better in the imagery condition than the technique condition. Repeated measures ANOVA results indicated that the attention-driven imagery condition resulted in greater performance across trials than the technique condition. Despite promising results for attention-driven imagery, precise underlying mechanisms remain ambiguous. Future research is needed to better understand attentional processes during imagery to maximize the efficiency and effectiveness of motor imagery interventions.
