Abstract

While the impact of strategic self-talk on performance is well documented, examination of the attentional–perceptual mechanisms of self-talk is still at early stages. This study’s aim was to examine the effects of instructional self-talk on quiet-eye durations and putting performance. Thirty participants were recruited and randomly assigned to self-talk or control conditions. Participants performed a golf-putting task in a mixed between (self-talk vs. control) and within (pre- vs. postintervention) design. Two 2 × 2 mixed-design analyses of variance were conducted for performance and quiet-eye durations as dependent variables. A mediation analysis was conducted to examine the mediating effect of quiet-eye durations on performance. Results showed that self-talk use led to longer quiet-eye durations and better performance compared with controls. The mediation analysis indicated that performance was mediated by quiet-eye durations. Discussion centers on the role of quiet-eye in motor performance and how self-talk can assist in regulating quiet-eye.

教学自言自语对静眼时间和推杆成绩的影响

虽然策略性自我对话对表现的影响已被充分记录，但对自我对话的注意-知觉机制的研究仍处于早期阶段。这项研究的目的是检验教学自我对话对静眼持续时间和推杆表现的影响。招募了30名参与者，并随机分配到自言自语或控制条件。参与者在(自我对话vs.对照)和(干预前vs.干预后)的混合设计中完成了一项高尔夫球推杆任务。以表现和静眼持续时间为因变量，进行了两次2 × 2混合设计方差分析。我们进行了中介分析，以检验静眼持续时间对表现的中介作用。结果表明，与对照组相比，使用自言自语可以延长静眼持续时间和提高表现。中介分析表明，表现受静眼持续时间的中介作用。讨论的重点是静眼在运动表现中的作用，以及自言自语如何帮助调节静眼。
