dc.description.abstractThe primary purpose of this study was to assess the influence of two cognitive strategies, dissociation and a combination of association and dissociation, on run­ning performance. Novice athletes were given cognitive mental training pro­grams, in addition they were asked to use these skills during a series of 3,200m timed trials. Although there was a significant trial effect for all groups, F(3,25) = 15.389 P<,01 further analysis revealed that no group improved more than any oth­er group over the series of time trials. It was concluded that the cognitive train­ing programs did not mediate the performances of the treatment groups. The secondary purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of the two cognitive strategies on perceived exertion. The ANOVA analyses of each treatment group revealed that the cognitive strategies had no significant influ­ence on the subjects perceived exertion during the 3,200m timed trials, dissocia­tion F(3,36) = .7 P>.05, combination F(3,36) =.5 P >.05.
