Abstract

Purpose: The aim of the current study is to investigate the effect of active and passive imagery on the learning of the dart throwing skills in 7-12 years old student. Methods: So, in order to sampling, the motor imagery questionnaires for children were distributed among the statistical society (7-12 years old children) and 30 girls and 30 boys, whose imagery ability was similar, were chosen. After performing the pretest stage, samples were categorized into two groups: active homogenous group and passive homogenous group (2 groups of boys and two of girls). In order to determine differences between two mentioned groups, ANCOVA analysis test was used. Results: The first to sixth acquisition, learning and transition tests indicated that there are no significant differences in groups that are based on the interaction between sex and group. So, it can be inferred that the active and passive imagery did not influence the groups. Conclusion: Obtained results of acquisition, learning and transition stages showed that intellectual practices should be considered without regarding its type.
