Abstract

There is potential in delivering brief, educational interventions online, particularly for recreational athletes. This initial investigation examined how two online interventions were perceived by endurance participants and how they affected outcomes of interest. After measuring self-efficacy, 142 people were randomized to one of three groups (self-talk, implementation intentions, and control) before an endurance event. Ninety-four completed postevent measures, which were self-efficacy, goal attainment, performance satisfaction, coping, stress appraisals, and social validity. The interventions involved approximately 10 min of initial engagement with online material. Perceptions of stress controllability were significantly higher in the implementation intention group compared with the control. There were no other statistically significant effects. Nevertheless, both intervention groups were satisfied with their interventions, found them useful, and were planning to continue using them. The findings demonstrate the feasibility and value of using brief, online psychological interventions, which may be timely in our changing profession, as COVID-19 has moved many interventions online.

“短而甜”:对耐力运动员进行简短在线心理干预的随机对照初步调查
在网上提供简短的教育干预是有潜力的,特别是对休闲运动员。这项初步调查检查了耐力参与者如何感知两种在线干预措施,以及它们如何影响感兴趣的结果。在测量了自我效能感之后,142人被随机分为三组(自我对话组、执行意图组和对照组)。94人完成了自我效能、目标实现、绩效满意度、应对、压力评估和社会效度的事后测量。干预措施包括大约10分钟的在线材料初步接触。实施意向组的压力可控性知觉显著高于对照组。没有其他统计上显著的影响。然而,两个干预组都对他们的干预措施感到满意,发现它们是有用的,并计划继续使用它们。研究结果证明了使用简短的在线心理干预措施的可行性和价值,这在我们不断变化的职业中可能是及时的,因为COVID-19已将许多干预措施转移到网上。
