練習時間の告知が練習中の行動に及ぼす影響

抄録

People are constantly required to acquire new skills and further improve the skills acquired in sports, music, and work. Practice is an indispensable element in the development of these skills; however, the important thing is to not blindly spend time on the activity, but to use time well. In previous studies related to the duration of practice in sports, prolonged practice has been cited as one of the problems of club activity. This seems to be based on the premise that practicing more is necessary for skill improvement. However, research on the relationship between performance and time management, has revealed that, the proper management of time is beneficial for work efficiency and performance improvement. Therefore, the present study aimed to clarify the influence on the behavior during practice depending on the presence or absence of time notification. Findings revealed that the presence or absence of time notice did not affect the improvement of short-term exercise performance. However, there was a significant difference in the behaviors exhibited during the practice. Notice of practice time has shown to promote behaviors related to practice. On the other hand, when the practice time was not announced, it was confirmed that participants spent a lot of time on behaviors unrelated to practice. These findings suggest that notifying the time during practice not only aids time management by determining the practice duration, but also greatly affects how one approaches the practice. These results may add a new viewpoint on sports practice method.
