The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of motor imagery speeds on football dribbling among skilled players. To fulfill this purpose، 30 participants assigned in groups with fast speed، real speed imagery and control group without imagery. Participants are investigated in the term of ability in football dribbling and also imagery before assigning in groups. After pre test، 3 session of imagery training of football dribbling (30 trails in any session) are performed for football dribbling imagery. Retention test is performed after 3rd session of imagery training. The results of covariance showed significant difference among groups in dependence variable، so the fast speed imagery group have faster performance time in comparison the two other groups. Based on study results the assimilation effect in football dribbling of skilled players is proved. It seems that increasing imagery speed among skilled players is in accordance with their learning level and resulted to better performance.

In sport psychophysiological research، skin conductance level (SCL) and heart rate (HR) used as indices of arousal and vigilance، and their cogency have been approved in skills with high cognitive load. However، the HR and SCL profiles are not clear in high intensity skills with little cognitive load. In the present study، HR and SCL of 15 elite and 16 novice volleyball players were continuously recorded during 10 self-initiated and self-paced volleyball tennis serves. Patterns of HR and SCL during 5 seconds before serves were compared between elite and novice groups and between good and bad serves in elite group، using one way ANOVA and repeated measure ANOVA، respectively. SCL and HR were significantly higher in elite group، in which SCL and HR in good serves were higher than bad ones. The results were discussed in relation to the previous findings and current hypotheses.

Grounded in self-determination theory، the aim of this research was to examine the relationship between basic psychological needs and indices of eudaimonic and hedonic well-being in physical activity of physical-motional disabled males. To this end، 205 physical - motional disabled males from Urmia، Tabriz، and Tehran cities with at least two years of regular physical activity background were randomly selected in this descriptive-correlational study. The collected data were analyzed by calculating Correlation Coefficient and Regression. The results showed that there are significant relationships between basic psychological needs with eudaimonic well-being and some indices of hedonic well-being. In addition، the needs for competence and autonomy significantly predicted the eudoimanic well-being. The needs for competence and autonomy significantly predicted the positive affect; the need for autonomy negatively predicted the negative affect; and the need for relatedness significantly predicted life satisfaction with regard to the indices of hedonia well-being. Generally، the results suggested that the eudoimonic and hedonic well-being in motional-physical disabled males can be predicted by the satisfaction of basic psychological needs in physical activity.
