Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the frequency with which collegiate athletes use the five different types of imagery during their off-season. Three versions of the SIQ were used: 1) General in season; 2) Off-season while cross-training; 3) Off-season while doing sport specific skills. One-hundred sixty six male and female Div. I collegiate athletes from a range of sports completed the three questionnaires in one session during their off-season. The main comparison in the study was between individual versus team sport athletes over the three measures of the SIQ (2x3 repeated measures MANOVA) with additional analyses performed on gender and imagery instruction. Results from the study found a main effect for both sport type and time but found no interaction between the two. Results found for gender differences were equivocal. In addition, those previously instructed in imagery used four of the five types of imagery significantly more than those not previously instructed.
