Imagery, in today's world of sport psychology, is as vital and fundamental a part of an athlete's mental game plan as the physical training required for conditioning. With a widespread embrace of such a philosophy comes new ways to analyse and measure its performance among athletes. In 'The Sport Imagery Questionnaire: Test Manual' the authors assess athletes' use of imagery by proposing and outlining a specifically designed evaluation of its effectiveness, the Sport Imagery Questionnaire (SIQ). The Manual is designed for sport psychologists, coaches, athletes, or anyone who seeks to understand or quantify the use of mental imagery in sport. Features: A 4-page reproduction of the Sport Imagery Questionnaire in an easy-to-photocopy format, complete with instructions and specific rating chart; A 'Scoring the SIQ' section to calculate imagery performance; A brief overview of the SIQ clearly and explicitly outlining its purpose and function; 3 comprehensive chapters dedicated to understanding imagery, explaining the methods involved in both developing and successfully utilising the SIQ, and the psychometric properties and normative data of the questionnaire itself.

It has long been known that almost all elite athletes use imagery and that most sport psychologists apply imagery in working with athletes. But most material on the subject has been, to this point, relegated to single chapters in books, to journal articles, or to conference proceedings. Now Imagery in Sport addresses the breadth of what researchers and practitioners in sport psychology know about the topic, and it treats each issue in depth, considering current theories and research on imagery and its application in sport. The reference also addresses future directions in research and practice for imagery in sport. In doing so, Imagery in Sport provides the most comprehensive look at the state of imagery and its uses in sport today. The authors take readers step by step through understanding, investigating, applying, and advancing imagery in sport. The text includes the following: -Sample scripts, preperformance suggestions, and sport-specific and site-specific tips -Presentation and critical analysis of 10 well-known theoretical frameworks for understanding imagery -A full chapter devoted to understanding and successfully using the available measures of imagery in sport, including how to administer imagery-ability measures Imagery in Sport takes complex theories and presents them clearly, using examples from everyday sport contexts. The book helps readers become familiar with the current knowledge about the topic and learn to view it with a critical eye. And it provides practicing sport psychologists with guidelines and strategies for using imagery to help athletes improve their performances.

This study investigated the relationships of the five types of imagery, Cognitive-Specific (CS), Cognitive-General (CG), Motivational-Specific (MS), Motivational General-Mastery (MGM), and Motivational General-Arousal (MG-A), and athletes' imagery ability with goal setting and self-confidence in sport settings. Based on prior research, it was expected that MS imagery would be the imagery type that would correlate most highly with goal setting while MG-M imagery would correlate most with self-confidence. It was also expected that imagery ability would correlate with goal setting and self-confidence. Participants (N=100) from six Division I athletics teams and two Division I universities completed a packet of questionnaires measuring goal setting, self-confidence (Carolina Sports Confidence Inventory), type of imagery used (Sport Imagery Questionnaire), and imagery ability (Movement Imagery Questionnaire). Linear regression analyses showed that MS imagery was not significantly correlated with goal setting, and that imagery ability was not significantly correlated with either goal setting or self-confidence. MG-M imagery was, though, found to correlate significantly with self-confidence. These results supported only one expected relationship, between MG-M imagery and self-confidence, and point to a possible lack of clarity regarding imagery types and their effects in sport settings.

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate whether athletes classified by combining individual versus team categories with categories based on varying degrees of perceived control (i.e., outcome control, performance control, and difficulty control) differ in their use of imagery. To help accomplish this purpose, the Subjective and Experiential Control Questionnaire (SECQ) was developed to assess perceived control. A modified version of the Sport Imagery Questionnaire (SIQ-2) was employed to measure the motivational and cognitive functions of imagery use. The SECQ and SIQ-2 were administered to Canadian athletes (n = 1358) and USA athletes (n = 1890) competing in a variety of individual and team sports. It was found that athletes classified according to six sport categories showed some differences in perceived control. Furthermore, they also reported differences in their use of motivational and cognitive imagery. Given these findings, some implications are made for coaches and sport psychologists developing and implementing imagery interventions with Canadian and USA athletes.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency of imagery use among National Collegiate Athletic Association Division III collegiate athletes. Additionaly, the influence of athlete sex and sport skill type was examined. A sample of 337 athletes from 15 different sports participated in the study. The Sport Imagery Questionnaire was administered to assess the frequency of imagery use between males and females as well as open-skill sport and closed-skill sport athletes. Multiple regression analyses indicated that male athletes as well as open-skill athletes use imagery more frequently than female athletes and closed-skill sport athletes, respectively. However, the low amount of variation explained by the data makes it hard to produce definitive predictions. It is likely that individual differences, such as efficacy and ability, play a larger role in predicting imagery use in sport.

The present research program consisted of three separate studies investigating the use of imagery by competitive athletes and the examination of imagery as a form of deliberate practice. The purpose of Study 1 was to examine the influence of competitive level on an athlete's use of imagery in the off-season, and to examine whether imagery use was related to the amount of physical and technical preparation for the up-coming season. A total of 324 athletes from one of three different competitive levels (i.e., regional, provincial and national) participated in this study. Participants were asked to complete a modified version of the Sport Imagery Questionnaire (SIQ; Hall, Mack, Paivio, & Hausenblas, 1998) that was designed to measure an athlete's use of imagery in the off-season. MANOVAs indicated that competitive level differences existed in the athletes' use of imagery in the off-season, as well as in their use of physical and technical preparation for the up-coming season.

Author's abstract: The opportunity for athletes with an intellectual disability (ID) to participate in sport is limited due to physical, social, and psychological barriers (Shields, Synnot, & Barr, 2012). Sport psychology interventions may have the capacity to address these barriers, namely the lack of sport competence that athletes with an ID tend to experience (Vealey, Hayashi, Garner-Holman, & Giacobbi, 1998). Therefore, this single subject A-B-A design sought to enhance sport competence among athletes with an ID using personalized motivational general-mastery (MG-M) imagery scripts. The study spanned six weeks and was implemented with five Special Olympics athletes (Mage = 11.40) who had ID's including autism, mild intellectual disability, and moderate intellectual disability. The Sport Imagery Questionnaire for Children (SIQ-C), the Movement Imagery Questionnaire-Revised (MIQ-R), and the Pictorial Scale of Perceived Competence and Social Acceptance for Young Children assessed athletes' imagery use, imagery ability, and sport competence level, respectively. Results demonstrated improvements in sport competence from baseline through intervention for three out of five participants, and these changes were maintained in the return to baseline phase for two of those three participants. Changes in mean and variability were also evaluated using effect sizes, and suggested that scores became more stable during the intervention phase for three out of five participants. Implications of the current study include emphasizing the importance and feasibility of conducting research with this special population of athletes. Additionally, this study identifies the relevant modifications for mental skills training with individuals who have an ID. In particular, results suggest that imagery use and ability, as well as sport competence, can be improved with individualized training among athletes with an ID.

Athletes commonly use imagery to improve performance by mentally practicing a physical action without explicit physical movement. The ability to image is a trainable skill and a crucial factor influencing the efficacy of an imagery intervention. The purpose of the current study was to determine an appropriate duration of an intervention to improve the ability of generating images. Experienced golfers (n=12) were instructed to practice a personalized imagery script for 15 minutes, three days per week for six weeks. During each weekly visit to the laboratory, participants were evaluated on imagery ability, measured by the Sport Imagery Ability Questionnaire (SIAQ), and putting performance, recorded by successfully made putts and average distance from the hole of missed putts. A one-way repeated-measures ANOVA statistical test comparing the SIAQ scores at seven different times found significant effects, F(6, 66) = 18.17, p .001. Follow-up dependent t tests revealed that scores increased significantly from baseline to week 1, t(11) = -3.38, p = .006, and again from week 2 to week 3, t(11) = -3.61, p = .004. A secondary purpose of the study was to determine if putting performance improved during the course of an imagery intervention. Two one-way repeated-measures ANOVA's to compare the number of successfully made putts and the average distance of missed putts did not yield significant effects; F(6,66) = .959, p .05, and F(6,66) = 2.08, p > .05, respectfully. Multiple Pearson's correlation coefficients examining the relationship between imagery ability and putting performance did not find any significant (p > .05) results. While considering the immense time constraints athletes typically have to devote to mental-skills training, the results of the existing study suggest applying an imagery intervention for a three-week duration to reach optimal imagery performance. Further research is still needed to confirm the trajectory of imagery ability to achieve a peak.
