Abstract
To examine the effect of visuomotor behavior rehearsal on archers' shooting performance two groups of athletes were tested, one experimental and one control. The experimental group of 9 received a specifically designed program which included relaxation conditions and imagery rehearsal. The control group of 9 received only physical practice. Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 was used to measure the precompetitive state anxiety and self-confidence. Self-reports were used to evaluate the intermediate effectiveness of the program. Analysis showed no significant changes from pre- to posttest shooting scores. No significant changes were observed in sport-specific state anxiety. Significant changes were found on the tense-relaxed scale administered before and after the relaxation program.
