Anecdotal and research evidence suggest that imagery rehearsal can improve performance in a variety of sports activities at least some of the time. However, the reasons for the effects (or lack of them) are unclear. This paper proposes a conceptual framework that could be used to evaluate the available research literature and guide further research on the use of imagery techniques to modify performance. The framework is based on evidence that imagery mediates behaviour through either cognitive or motivational mechanisms, which affect specific or general response systems. Special emphasis is given to task analysis and the functions of memory and verbal mechanisms in imagery rehearsal.
轶事证据和研究证据表明，表象演练至少在某些时候可以提高各种体育活动中的表现。然而，产生这种效果（或未产生效果）的原因尚不清楚。本文提出了一个概念框架，可用于评估现有的研究文献，并指导关于使用表象技术来改善表现的进一步研究。该框架基于这样的证据，即表象通过认知或动机机制来调节行为，而这些机制会影响特定或一般的反应系统。特别强调了任务分析以及表象演练中记忆和言语机制的作用。
