Abstract
Mental training is an effective mean commonly used in sport to enhance motor coordination. However, while imagining movements, athletes have an option to adopt either 1-st person or 3-d person perspective, which are believed to differ in effectiveness. Such a difference should be based on corresponding properties of 1-st person and 3-d person imagery that, in our view, have to be expressed in imagery perspective use as a function of imagined movement specifics and expertise. To investigate features of imagery perspective, we have tested 54 cross-country skiers (40 male and 14 female) aged from 11 to 31 (M = 16.3) and ranked from third-class junior to merited master of sport. All the subjects had to imagine 11 ski technical elements indicating preferred imagery perspective for each of them. Pairwise comparison of the elements in terms of imagery perspective revealed lots of significant differences indicating the role of speed and strength qualities of a movement as well as convenience for visual control in determining imagery perspective used. 46 subjects were divided into 4 groups according to their level of expertise using cluster analysis based on skill level evaluation by experts and cycles quantity in 2 roller-ski skating trials designed consistently with dual-task methodology. The rest of 8 subjects were qualified as best skilled since they were national team members. Groups formed by means of cluster analysis according to an imagery perspective predominantly used showed nonuniform distribution over expertise with an initial increase in number of subjects used 3-d person perspective that could be linked to the skill gain, and subsequent prevalence of subjects used 1-st person perspective supposedly resulting from influence of other factors when the skill had been learned.
