dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this thesis was to study the effects of various cognitive strategies on the treadmill running performance of intercollegiate wrestlers (N=12), The independent variables were the four cognitive strategies presented to each S. The dependent variables were the length of time each S would perform at constant effort and intermittent heart rates during performance. Three independent replications of a 4 X 4 latin square were utilized. An analysis of variance revealed no significant difference in performance or heart rate between the four treatments {p> .05)* The Ss for both performance and heart rate scores revealed a significant F ratio (p<*05). Eleven Ss ran their best under a directed situation (either voluntary distraction, Imagery manipulation, or task specific). One S ran his best under the unaided condition. On a postexperiment questionnaire, Ss displayed a lack of awareness of the condition which maximized their performance. | |
