Study Name: A Case Report On Mindfulness
Training with a Fencing Athlete Who Was Troubled
by an Inability to Perform Well Competitively.
#3 Session- MAAS was re-administered and scored 62 points, up 10 points from #1. His
Homework completion rate was 87.9%.
After the 3rd session, he reported he improved his focus & stopped negative thinking as well as
won against his similar strength opponent. As his issue was solved, the patient discontinued his
therapy session.
Key
Findings
Mindfulness intervention improves athletes' performances by helping them stop negative
thinking.
The Result suggest that traditional positive thinking alone might not enable a player to
successfully enhance their performance.
Limitations
Subjectivity: The patient's MAAS scores rose as a result of the mindfulness intervention,
and his subjective problems were resolved. However, it is not clear at what degree his
objective performance had improved.
Instrument Applicability: Although MAAS was used to measure the degree of awareness
and attention to mindfulness, this scale was not specifically intended for use with athletes.
