Abstract

Introduction and Objective: physical training is not the only way to acquire and learn a new skill. Cognitive strategies also can facilitate the learning of a skill. The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of goal setting in the form of self- talk on the learning and self-efficacy of a dart- throwing skill.
Methods: 30 female students from Urmia University were voluntary selected and assigned into three groups based on the pre-test scores. The acquisition stage was 3 days; each day consisted of 5 sets of 10 repetitions. The retention test conducted 48 hours later.
Results: the results of factorial ANOVA showed no significant main effect for group and also interaction of group and factor (training sessions) was not significant in acquisition stage but the main effect for factor was significant. The results of ONE WAY ANOVA in retention test showed a significant difference between two group of goal-setting with the control group, but difference between two group of goal-setting was not significant. Also, The results of ONE WAY ANOVA for seshowed a signifilf-efficacy showed a significant difference between two group of goal-setting with the control group, but difference between two group of goal-setting was not significant.
Discussion and Conclusion: The results showed that self- talk was effective in enhancing learning and self-efficacy. Therefore, coaches are recommended to use instructional self-talking and goal-setting when teaching the skills.
