Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Mindfulness-based interventions have gained popularity among elite athletes, but their effectiveness for enhancing archery performance remains inconsistent. This study examined the feasibility of a 12-week mindfulness flow program (MFP) specifically designed for archers, and assessed the effect of the MFP on shooting performance. The intervention aims to enhance shooting performance, mindfulness, and the flow state, while reducing post-intervention anxiety.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The primary goal of the present study was to test the feasibility of a prototype mindfulness flow program (MFP), with 11 sessions conducted via Zoom video meeting and one in-person session of sport-specific session. Additionally, the program seeks to examine the psychological outcomes associated with the intervention specifically among archery athletes. It is anticipated that the experimental group will show reduced anxiety levels and increased levels of mindfulness and flow when comparing their baseline and post-intervention assessments. This study explores the potential of delivering mindfulness programs conveniently to sport populations via the internet, supplemented by one face-to-face sport-specific session to enhance mindfulness and improve sports performance among athletes.
