Abstract
Five types of imagery used by 188 Nigerian athletes in track and field, soccer, and table tennis were examined using the Sport Imagery Questionnaire [ M age for men 24.7 yr. ( SD = 3.6) and for women 23.3 yr. ( SD = 3.4)] to assess whether these participants differed in their use of imagery. Significant differences were noted for the three sports on subscales of Cognitive General, Motivational Specific, Motivation General-Mastery, and Motivation General-Arousal, while moderate to strong positive correlations were identified among scores on imagery subscales, especially Motivation General-Mastery and Motivation General-Arousal. Cronbach α for the questionnaire was suitable for all subscales but one.
