“…Research has indicated an enhanced flow induced by imagery interventions in the context of sports training and competition (Jeong, 2012;Koehn et al, 2014) due to athletes' clear focus on task execution without experiencing emotions . For instance, Koehn and Díaz-Ocejo (2016) confirmed an increase in flow state in runners with individually adjusted imagery scripts after 4 weeks of intervention (see for an overview on the use of imagery in endurance McCormick et al, 2019). Indeed, there is evidence that individually-adjusted scripts are more efficient and meaningful for the athletes' imagery (Williams et al, 2013); moreover, a higher psychophysiological activity is observed when the scripts are prepared by participants rather than by experimenters (Wilson et al, 2010).…”

“…While these distinct aspects of spillover have otherwise tended to be condensed into single variables (McNall et al, 2010) measured using double-barreled items (e.g., “[My family] helps me to understand different viewpoints and this helps me be a better worker”; Carlson et al, 2006), this study can speak to differential value of the moderator when targeted at each stage. Given one benefit of construal level is the ability to manipulate it (e.g., Wakslak & Trope, 2009) and evidence of related cognitive techniques (e.g., McCormick et al, 2019), this therefore sets the stage for the development of theoretically driven interventions focused on enhancing resource generation specifically, and which have previously been lacking (for a notable exception on enrichment perceptions : Heskiau & McCarthy, 2021).…”

“…Coaches play an important role in that they have a strong influence in the nature and importance of the goals athletes choose, and can thus increase motivation, and influence pacing behavior, by providing realistic goals that can be largely controlled by the athlete (setting a personal best performance), in contrast to goals that may be partly determined by external factors (such as beating an opponent). Additionally, coaches could provide ways in which athletes will reach the set goal, including: imagining the joy of success (McCormick et al, 2019), positive self-talk focusing on a positive outcome (Gibson and Foster, 2007;Hatzigeorgiadis et al, 2018), but also realistic expectation regarding the fatigue and exhaustion an athlete undoubtedly will experience during a race , thinking in several if-then scenario's providing athletes with an internal locus of control and feelings of autonomy competence and selfefficacy (Howle et al, 2016). These methods could all lead to increased motivation and potentially assist in optimizing an athletes' pacing behavior.…”
