Mental Skills Training

In recent years we have applied mental skills training for child athletes, kindergarten and elementary school students, and children attempting to overcome serious illnesses. Key elements that have been associated with our most successful interventions include the use of simple, concrete strategies, an element of fun, positive individualized approaches, the use of role models, and involving parents. It is our belief that every child will experience growth, and some degree of success, if someone who cares devotes time to nurturing important mental skills related to personal development.

Due to the importance of role models in youth and media coverage of athletes, the aim of this research was to analyze the significance and characteristics of sports role models and the existence of gender patterns in elementary school students. Research sample consisted of 468 students aged 11-15. Sports role models were analyzed using a modified questionnaire of Adriansee & Crosswhite [2008]. Research results indicated that most respondents (80.8%) had role models. Role models belong to different domains with the highest proportion of famous athletes (31.5%) and family members (30.4%). Gender of the respondents was significantly correlated with selection of the role model, with sports role models being selected more often by males (49.2%) than by females (22.5%). Within the category of sports role models, famous athletes were highly predominant (88.1%), and most of them were males and foreign sports stars. Since adolescence is a period when future preferences for physical activities are developed, it is important to exploit all possible ways of supporting the youth to develop a healthy life style, where sports role models can have a significant influence.

Situational Variables

Adherence to mental-skills training has received little empirical investigation despite the recent growth and development in applied sport psychology services. The present study was designed to identity personal and situational variables influencing adherence to a mental training program. Volunteer athletes (N=34) were given a 4-week educational program before being left to train on their own for an experimental period of 8 weeks. Subjects were randomly assigned to one of three treatment intervention conditions (control, written reminders, and group meetings) designed to influence adherence behavior. Results demonstrated the influence of self-motivation in predicting mental-training adherence, but the interventions had no significant effect. Adherence levels were generally low but variable between athletes. Interviews with the athletes indicated the need for individualization of training programs, and problems of time constraints were identified as being influential in the adherence process. Comparable athletes (N—18) who chose not to volunteer for the mental training program were psychometrically tested and demonstrated lower sport motivation than the volunteer athletes but greater skill in concentration.

Abstract: Thinking skills become one of the important aspects in creating ideas, concepts, and creativity to make something new work. Thinking skills are very necessary for elementary school students because it involves instruments of development in themselves to be able to gain knowledge as well as insight in shaping creativity. Robotics activities are related to creative thinking skills, because this activity is not only done as an activity to develop ideas, concepts, and works but is one of the skills in thinking students to be able to explore their abilities so that students can train and improve their motor skills in creating ideas, concepts, and works in robotics activities.
