Assignment: Guided Imagery
First, let me stress that this is NOT a POWER POINT presentation or a PAPER. The only thing
you need to submit are two things:
1. Your imagery script. This must be your script you have for walking your population through
the cognitive training (imagery). I recommend you using the attachment I have provided as a
guide. PETTLEP can be a great help in developing the script. You can even fill in your responses
on the attachment and submit it. Let the script serve as a guide as you guide me through your
imagery session.
2. Your video. I only want to see you talking me through the imagery of the chosen area. This
should be in a quiet area. Eliminate any distractions.
Upload this as ONE document. Paste the hyperlink to your imagery session in script document at
the TOP of the page. No title page or reference page is needed.
Please read below….
Over the past few weeks we have discussed the impact the mind plays in performance. For this
weeks assignment we are going to practice developing an effective imagery training program
which can aid in controlling stress, anxiety, arousal, etc. Download the attached document to use
as a template to create a script for an imagery training program. Choose a specific sports skill
(this can be related to the sport or activity you chose for your Critical Assignment) and begin
identifying the physical nature of the movement. For example, if my specific sports skill is
swinging a golf club, what are some specific physical components (foot placement, knee
position, spinal position, grip, etc.). Include specifics of the environment (sights, smells, etc.),
type of task, timing of the movement, content of the movement, emotion of the movement, and
perspective of the person.
Once you have created the script and practiced how you are going to deliver it, record a 5-10
minute video clip (Use can use VoiceThread, Screencast-o-matic, or YouTube) of you talking
through the imagery training program. For simplicity, pertend I am your client and you will walk
me through the activity you are walking me through in my mind. This is an opportunity for you
to practice implementing this skill with an athlete or client. You are welcome to address me
directly the population you are working with in your video. I understand that you are not a
trained sport psychologist, but I want you to give it your best effort. Find a quiet place to walk
through your imagery. Stay away from distractions in the back ground. Speak clearly. Bring
about specifics within the imagery session. Please use the video below as a frame of reference.
There is no written submission with this other than the written script you’d use for the imagery.
MUST WATCH the YouTube imagery training video

Example of a script from a student in a past assignment
– https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKSVHzchKkk
My population is High School Varsity football Linebackers. My idea would be to help them with
a guided imagery on the BOX DRILL in this video. Help them visualize as well as all the other
information that was given in the instructions for this assignment. The video is 4 mins long but
only focus on the BOX DRILL which is from the start and ends 00:55 seconds.

All you have to do is write the script with all the information that is given in the text and videos.
Make it the script similar to the the student in the past assignment video.
Also a template is given to guide you with the script.
Developing an Imagery Script
Holmes and Collins (2001) offered some guidelines for making imagery more effective, which they
call their PETTLEP program because it emphasizes the following:

The physical nature of the movement

The specifics of the environment

The type of task

The timing of the movement

Learning the content of the movement

The emotion (meaning to the individual) of the movement

The perspective of the person (internal or external)
Think of the sport that you are best at and design an imagery script that incorporates the PETTLEP
model of imagery.
