Abstract

65 college women were placed in one of five groups to learn the pursuit-rotor task. Four of the groups practiced mentally at various designated points during the overt practice context; the fifth practiced without any directed mental rehearsal. Using various statistical analyses, no significant differences were found between the groups, although a trend indicated some value of early introduction of mental rehearsal within the context of overt practice.
