Book excerpt: "The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of mental imagery practice on the performance of selected psychomotor tennis skills of postsecondary students. The principal investigator/researcher conducted a quasi-experimental quantitative study involving a post hoc statistical analysis. The population included six beginning tennis activity classes, for a total of 138 subjects, who participated during the fall 2003 semester on the campus of a small, private midwestern university. The instrument used in this study was the American Alliance for Health, Physical Education, Recreation, and Dance Tennis skills Test authored by Larry Hensley. This instrument was selected due to its exclusive design for the testing of tennis skills as well as validity and reliability. An alpha level of .05 was used for all analyses. The principal investigator/researcher conducted a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and paired t-tests to examine the mean changes among and within the three groups studied. The results of the study were the following: (a) the control group, Group 3, showed a significant difference between the pretest to posttest, however, not as significant as either Group 1 or Group 2; (b) the group that incorporated the practice of mental imagery prior to physical practice, Group 1, demonstrated a significant difference between the pretest to posttest, recording the highest gains among all groups tested; and (c) the group that incorporated the practice of mental imagery after physically practicing, Group 2, showed a significant difference-- more than Group 3 but less than Group 1. These results are supported by previous research study investigations. The results that both experimental groups employing the use of mental imagery practice in conjugation with physical practice are superior to physical practice alone, are congruent with the literature reviewed. The results that indicated Group 1 using mental imagery prior to physical practice as superior to Group 2 using mental imagery after physical practice and Group 3 physical practice only, can also be found in the literature"--Abstract.

Book excerpt: This pioneering book was created based on the assessed needs and became an educational tool of reference. It has contributed to the systematic development and implementation of mental skills training necessary to foster success and well-being. Since the release of the Portuguese version of this book in 2009 (together with the implementation of clinics, educational workshops, and consulting by RMC), Portugal has seen significant developments in terms of professional tennis players' mental toughness. Portugal is currently a nation that has several ATP top players. More importantly, mental training now has a serious place within the development of tennis professionals and youth.Besides the sports arena, RMC has conceived success manuals for students and teachers to enhance academic performance and develop life skills. RMC desires to produce additional Mental Training books for specific sports and diverse contexts (e.g., business, health, performing arts). RMC is currently writing a book on effective parenting (in sports and life in general), an area considered extremely important and still underdeveloped. Although there is plenty of literature on mental skills, we believe that there are not enough applied books that provide both informative content and easy tools to implement on your own.The updated English version of 2009 released Portuguese Mental Training in Tennis book, does provide the relevant performance enhancement content, and applied strategies for success. Specifically, it contains 33 (off-, and on-court) step-by-step exercises linked to each of the six areas included in the book: Psychological Training, Motivation, Goal-Setting, Positive Self-Dialogue, Concentration, Confidence. Although the language and examples of the "Mental Training in Tennis: applied strategies for success" book is specific tennis, its scientific foundations and strategies apply to all domains: Sports, Education, Health, Special forces, Performing arts and business.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The archer stands and pulls back the bow, visualizing the path of the arrow to the target. Does this mental exercise enhance performance? Can we all use such techniques to improve performance in our daily lives? In the Mind's Eye addresses these and other intriguing questions. This volume considers basic issues of performance, exploring how techniques for quick learning affect long-term retention, whether an expert's behavior can serve as a model for beginners, if team performance is the sum of individual members' performances, and whether subliminal learning has a basis in science. The book also considers meditation and some other pain control techniques. Deceit and the ability to detect deception are explored in detail. In the area of self-assessment techniques for career development, the volume evaluates the widely used Myers-Briggs Type Indicator.

Book excerpt: THE ONLY SPORTS PSYCHOLOGY WORKBOOK THAT'S FLAWLESSLY DESIGNED FOR TENNIS PLAYERS TO IMPROVE THEIR PERFORMANCE ON THE COURT Players hear it all the time... "Tennis is 90% Mental, and 10% Physical" "It's All in Your Head" "The Only One that Can Stop You is You" But what exactly does that mean??? Without something concrete, it's difficult for players to understand what it specifically takes to have the correct mental approach and succeed. And rather than have a debate with someone who knows nothing about sports psychology... or read about theories and mental hacks that may or may not work off some random website...why not incorporate a detailed, interactive, and engaging workbook that'll show athletes how specific Sports Psychology concepts directly impact their performance on the tennis court? That's exactly what you've found here! Through 10 Dynamic Exercises including topics such as Motivation, Goal-Setting, Thought Suppression, Zones of Optimal Performance, Competitive Anxiety, Coming Back from Injury, Mental Imagery, Self-Talk, Confidence, and Attention...we show athletes how a lack of knowledge in the combination of these concepts creates weaknesses in their ability and negatively impacts their performance in practice and in matches, we educate them on these topics by providing definitions and real life examples they can relate to, we provide a plan as to how they can immediately implement and apply these concepts to play and perform better, and finally we engage in mental workouts through retrospective questions enabling athletes to fully grasp our powerful mental training approach. After completing our workbook athletes will undoubtedly be equipped with the Mental Tools to: 1. Develop Supreme Confidence in their Skills and Abilities 2. Build Mental Toughness and Resilience to Overcome Obstacles 3. Learn to Handle Intense Pressure and Enormous Amounts of Adversity 4. Conquer their Crippling Fears and Severe Anxiety 5. Be Mentally Ready to Compete and Dominate their Competition 6. Come Back from Injury Better and Stronger than Before 7. Be Overflowing with Motivation and Achieve their Goals Whether you're a male or female athlete looking for ways to improve your game (middle school, high school, or collegiate skill level)...A coach or trainer in search of avenues to improve your teams performance...or a parent trying to help your son or daughter accomplish their goals and dreams...THIS IS THE WORKBOOK YOU'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR! Continuing to Choke Under Pressure During Crucial Moments of a Match, repeatedly Sitting on the Bench for long periods of time despite All your Hard Work, Becoming accustomed to Losing Set after Set, not Stepping Up when your team Needs it Most, and being Unable to see any Progress toward Improving and Reaching Success can be EXTEMELY PAINFUL, DISAPPOINTING, and DISCOURAGING. Put an END to this TODAY, Fulfill your Potential, and Finally Play as Well as you Know you Can. Available in Kindle or Paperback Edition

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary sport psychology is a rapidly developing and theoretically rich discipline, and a sophisticated and challenging profession. The Routledge International Handbook of Sport Psychology offers a comprehensive and authoritative guide to contemporary sport psychology in all its aspects. Written by a team of world-leading researchers and practitioners from five continents, including both established scholars and the best emerging talents, the book traces the contours of the discipline of sport psychology, introducing fundamental theory, discussing key issues in applied practice, and exploring the most important themes, topics and debates across the sport psychology curriculum. Uniquely, the book presents comparative studies of the history and contemporary practice of sport psychology in ten countries, including the US, UK, China, Japan, Brazil, Russia and Israel, helping the reader to understand the cultural and contextual factors that shape international practice in sport psychology. As well as covering in depth the core pillars of sport psychology, from motivation and cognition to group dynamics, the book also includes a full section on cultural sport psychology, a vital but under-explored sub-discipline that is having a profound influence on contemporary theory and practice. With 56 chapters and unparalleled range, depth and currency, the Routledge Handbook of International Sport Psychology is an essential addition to any library with a serious holding in sport psychology.
