dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of mental imagery on the mental
strength of collegiate athletes during practice and competition. The measurement tool was the
Sport Psychology Questionnaire for Swimmers, which assessed the levels of existing mental
strength for each athlete at the beginning of mental imagery implementation and again at the end
of the six-week period. No statistically significant findings on any of the questions on the survey
were found and the null hypothesis was retained. Research in this area should continue, as there
is very little information available regarding mental imagery and its quantifiable effects on the
mental states of athletes. | en_US |
