Theory of Attentional and Personal Style vs. Test of Attentional and Interpersonal Style (TAIS)
نویسنده
چکیده
Numerous investigators have emphasized how important it is for both researchers and applied practitioners in the field of performance psychology to have a sound theoretical base that guides their work (Moran, 1996; Abernethy, 1993; Druckman & Swets, 1988). This is especially true in the cognitive area where Moran maintains that “research on concentration in athletes has been conducted largely in a theoretical vacuum (pg. 235).” The reason often given for the failure to of investigators to have a theoretical bases for their hypotheses is the belief that there is an absence of well developed theories to study cognitive skills like attention, concentration, and information processing in sport (Masters & Lambert, 1989; Boutcher, 1992).
