Abstract

The effects of a “ body-mind ” self-regulation program considering individual differences on the performance of junior soccer players were investigated. Elementary school student-members of a soccer club （ N ＝ 20; Mean age: 11.0 ± 0 ） participated in this study. Firstly, the optimal psychological state for performing the long kick was iden-tified in individual players. Then, participants were divided into a control and an intervention group. Performance tests were conducted with one practice and one actual trial. Just before the actual trial, the intervention group practiced the self-regulation method to achieve their optimal psychological state. The results indicated that kick performance improved significantly in actual compared to practice trials in the intervention, but not in the control group. Moreover, there were no significant differences in the psychological state between the two groups. However, it was also indicated that the psychological condition was closer to the optimum state in the intervention group that practiced the self-regulation method （ Cohen ’ s d ＝ 1.0 ） . These findings suggest the importance of psychological support that considers individual differences.

“身心”自我调节程序对青少年足球运动员表现的影响

研究了考虑个体差异的“身心”自我调节程序对青少年足球运动员运动表现的影响。某足球俱乐部小学生会员(N = 20;平均年龄:11.0±0)参加本研究。首先，确定了运动员进行长踢时的最佳心理状态。然后，参与者被分为对照组和干预组。性能测试分别进行了一次实践和一次实际试验。在实际试验前，干预组通过自我调节的方法来达到最佳的心理状态。结果表明，与干预组的练习试验相比，实际的踢腿性能有显著提高，而对照组则没有。此外，两组之间的心理状态无显著差异。但也表明，采用自我调节方法的干预组心理状态更接近最佳状态(Cohen’s d = 1.0)。这些发现表明考虑个体差异的心理支持的重要性。
