sg-ntu-dr.10356-631302020-09-27T20:24:41Z The perception of elite athletes' guided self-regulation and performance Tan, Si Lie Koh Koon Teck Science::General 76 p. Self-regulatory practice is a key factor in expert learning and is able to enhance athletes’ performances. Existing studies found that elite athletes have superior self-regulatory skills as compared to their peers in the sub-elite level. However, it is unclear which area of self-regulation is effective for an elite athlete. Hence the purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a guided self-regulatory tool in relation to elite athlete’s performance. This study examined (1) the effectiveness of a self-regulatory tool; (2) preference of self-regulatory area amongst elite athletes and (3) possible contributing factors which leads to effective self-regulation. Eight elite archers from both Recurve and Compound division were involved in this study. The five-week intervention required each participant to reflect on their training using a guided self-regulatory diary, which consisted of five different areas of self-regulation. Their pre- and post-intervention performances were then compared and qualitative interviews were conducted to gather their feedback. Only two archers showed signs of improvement after the intervention. Comparison of scores showed that archer with the greatest improvement had a 0.45% increase in score, while the archer with the greatest drop in performance had a 2.31% score difference. This study revealed that the two most preferred areas of self-regulation are self-monitoring and self-reflection. Notably, three out of four Recurve archers voted self-monitoring as their top choice. Overall, the self-regulatory tool has minimal impact on the elite athletes' performance, which could be due to technical factors encountered by most participants during the period of intervention.
