dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a six-skill psychological skills intervention on the performance of male midget ice hockey goaltenders. The psychological skills utilized included goal setting, arousal regulation, self-talk, attention, imagery, and pre-competition and in-competition routines. The participants were three male ice hockey goaltenders competing in midget hockey. A single-subject multiple baseline study design was used to evaluate the psychological skills package. The results demonstrated the intervention could be effective for enhancing both subjective and objective performance in midget goaltenders. The social validation results indicated that athletes enjoyed the intervention, felt that their performance improved, and were satisfied with the results attained. As well, it appeared that all athletes benefited from the intervention for different reasons, promoting the package approach to psychological skills training.en_US
