Effective motor performance is important for surviving and thriving, and skilled movement is
critical in many activities. Much theorizing over the past few decades has focused on how …

Over the past 15 years, research on focus of attention has consistently demonstrated that an
external focus (ie, on the movement effect) enhances motor performance and learning …

Monitoring Training and Performance in Athletes provides practitioners with the information
needed in order to oversee an athlete monitoring system and to collect, analyze, and …

Background The present study examined whether the learning benefits of an external focus
of attention (ie on the movement effect) relative to an internal focus (ie on the movement) …

The primary purpose of this study was to investigate if focusing attention externally produced
faster movement times compared to instructions that focused attention internally or a control …

It is well documented that directing attention externally enhances motor skill learning and
performance under controlled experimental conditions. What is not well understood is how …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of an internal and external
attentional focus on single leg hop jump distance and knee kinematics in patients after ACL …

The present study was designed to fill a gap in the literature on attentional focus and sports
performance. Specifically, in contrast to most previous studies in which an external focus …
