Models of injury and practical tips for using imagery in rehabilitation

Athletes’ reactions to injuries are varied and involve not only physical, but also mental responses. The perception of injury and individual diff erences can infl uence the results of rehabilitation. This article presents four models that show these relationships. Special attention is paid to the diffi culties faced by athletes when returning to sp Imagery is a mental training technique recommended in the rehabilitation process. Correct application of this method is thought to be important in recovery. There are several main factors that are considered to aff ect the eff ectiveness of imagery training. Real examples of the use of the technique by injured athletes are useful for understanding what to pay attention to. Our purpose is to show that imagery training can help in an injury situation. ort after injury.

Implementation of Imagery Training in Increasing parking and Gate-in Shooting Performance of Musi Rawas Woodball

Theref ore this study aims to determine Imagery Training to improve the results of Musi Rawas Parking and Gate-in Woodball strokes. This research is an experi mental research in the form of one-group pretest-posttest design, the sample of this research is 10 athletes and then given treatment in the form of imagery training exercises. The instrument used was the parking and gate-in skill test for the woodball athlete Musi Rawas. The data analysis technique used was SPSS 22 the Paired Sample t-test. The results of this study there is a significant increase with the test criteria α = 0.05, then the T table is 1.833 and the Tcount is 9.000. From the results of this study indicate that Ha: accepted and Ho: rejected because in accordance with the rules of hypothesis testing decisions. According to Priyastama (2017: 91) which states the significance value obtained (p) <0.05 then Ho is rejected, and Ha is accepted or Ha is accepted if if Tcount <Ttable and the significance value obtained (p)> 0.05 then Ha is rejected and Ho is accepted or Ho is accepted if Thitung> Ttabel. Based on the results of paired samples test, the SPSS output obtained the sig value. (p) 0.000 <from 0.05 and the value of tcount (9.000)> t table (1.833). The results above show that Ha: accepted and Ho: rejected. If Ha is accepted, then Ha's statement reads "Imagery Training there is an increase in the results of Parking and Gate-in Athletes Beginner Woodball Musi Rawas".Key words: Woodball, imagery training, parking stroke and gate-in

Influence of Imagery Training on Adjusting the Pressure of Fin Swimmers, Improving Sports Performance and Stabilizing Psychological Quality

This study analyzed the effects of imagery training on athletes’ imagery ability, physical anxiety and athletic performance. This study employed a mixed research approach. Snowball sampling was used to select 55 fin swimmers with imagery training experience and formal competition participation. Basic statistics were obtained, and Pearson product-moment correlation coefficient (PPMCC) analysis was performed using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 26.0, and the results were compared with the opinions of three experts and were tested using multivariate validation methods. The results revealed that although imagery training can help athletes improve their performance and significantly reduce their anxiety during the competition, athletes can still make mistakes due to internal and environmental factors and even have negative thoughts that lead to their reduced likelihood of competition participation. By strengthening strategic and technical imagery training, we can help our fin swimmers perform at a higher level, achieve their goals, and improve overall satisfaction with their competition process and performance.

Feasibility of computerised positive mental imagery training as a treatment adjunct in in-patient mental health settings: randomised controlled trial

Background Positive affect and anhedonia are important but challenging targets for mental health treatments. Previous research indicates the potential of a computerised cognitive training paradigm involving generation of positive mental imagery, termed positive mental imagery training (PMIT), to increase positive affect and reduce anhedonia. Aims Our main aim was to investigate the feasibility of PMIT as a positive affect-focused, transdiagnostic adjunct to treatment as usual for patients in in-patient mental health settings. Method We ran an open feasibility, randomised controlled trial with three parallel arms: treatment as usual; treatment as usual plus PMIT; and treatment as usual plus an active comparator, cognitive control training. Fifty-seven patients from two different in-patient mental health treatment clinics in Germany were randomised in a 1:1:1 ratio. PMIT and cognitive control training comprised an introductory session followed by eight 15-min training sessions over 2 weeks. Clinical outcomes such as positive affect (primary outcome measure) and anhedonia were assessed at pre- and post-training, and at a further 2-week follow-up. Results Adherence was good and attrition was low. The patterns of results for the outcome data were not consistent with a specific effect of PMIT on positive affect, but were more consistent with a specific effect on anhedonia. Conclusions The results indicate feasibility and potential promise of a larger efficacy trial investigating PMIT as a treatment adjunct in in-patient mental health settings. Limitations include lack of researcher blinding, small sample size and lack of pre-specified feasibility outcomes. Anhedonia may be a more suitable primary outcome for a future larger trial.
