Getting the most out of imagery: PETTLEP and ESports
-
Melanie J. Gregg
Abstract
The PETTLEP model of imagery developed by Holmes, P. S., & Collins, D. J. (2001. The PETTLEP approach to motor imagery: A functional equivalence model for sport psychologists. Journal of Applied Sport Psychology, 13, 60–83) is used to guide mental skills practitioners and researchers when designing mental imagery interventions for performance enhancement. The PETTLEP acronym represents Physical, Task, Timing, Learning, Emotion, and Perspective aspects of mental images. Using the PETTLEP model to guide imagery optimizes the effectiveness of the imagery.
