| Abstract |
The purpose of this study was to examine the longitudinal effects of mental training for junior athletes. Two male athletes in the six grade participated in twelve months of mental training. The menta...l training program was created from information obtained during interviews and the Diagnostic Inventory of Psychological-Competitive Ability for Athletes (DIPCA.3). The mental training program consists of goal setting, performance routines, relaxation, and logbook tasks. The main results are as follows: 1) Junior athletes can develop psychological problems. 2) Subjects increased their performance routine with pair and relaxation during competition. 3) Subjects' DIPCA.3 scores increased after mental training. 4) Both subjects competed in a national tournament for elementary school athletes. These results suggest that mental training may be effective for elementary school junior athletes.show more
