The effects of attention training techniques on stress and performance in sports
(Die Auswirkungen von Techniken des Aufmerksamkeitstrainings auf Stress und Leistung im Sport)
The main aim of the present study was to investigate any effects from attention training techniques (ATT) on junior elite athletes` perceived level of stress, perceived performance in sports, and perceived performances in school. Fifty-eight athletes from various sports such as alpine skiing, cross-country skiing, handball, biathlon, ski-jumping and Nordic combined completed an ATT training program over a period of 12 weeks. A pre-test/post-test control group design was used to investigate any effects from the ATT training program. The results from this study showed that there was a decreased level of perceived stress, and a positive change in perceived performances in sports, but not in school performances, among the athletes in the experiment group. There were no positive changes in the control group. The implications are discussed according to the changes in the athletes` attentional awareness and control.
