Introduction: The aim of the present research was to study the effect of motivational self-talk on endurance performance with an emphasis on the role of self-determination. Methods: The participants included 18 physical education students with a history of regular exercise with an average age of 21.08 ± 2.5 years, who volunteered after getting acquainted with the objectives of the research and the application of its results in the current research. Participated. In three basic conditions, autonomous motivational self-talk (self-determining), controlled motivational self-talk (coach-determining) within the group, their endurance performance was measured in Bruce's test based on the time to complete exhaustion, and the perception of pressure was measured by Borg's test. Results: The results of the analysis of variance of repeated measures showed that self-talk in the self-determining condition compared to the coach-determining condition led to a decrease in the perception of pressure and improved endurance performance. The results of Benferroni's post hoc test showed that self-talk in coach-determining and self-determining conditions compared to conditions without self-talk led to improved endurance performance. Conclusion: In general, it seems that the autonomous motivational climate in the situation where the athlete played the main role in choosing and using the type of self-talk phrases; compared to the controlled motivational climate where the trainer determined the type and use of self-talk statements; By fulfilling the psychological needs of independence, connection and competence, it provided the basis for improving endurance performance and reducing the perception of pressure in athletes.

Introduction: The purpose of the present study was to investigate the relationship between self-supportive behaviors with basic psychological needs, sleep quality and mindfulness in athletes.Methods: The present research method was descriptive and correlation. The statistical population of the present study was athletes (girls and boys) with an age range of 20-30 years, who had at least three years of experience in one of the competitive sports fields (team and individual) and were members of one of the sports teams in Tabriz city. A total of 134 athletes were selected through available sampling and completed demographic information questionnaire, self-supporting and self-thwarting behaviors questionnaire, basic psychological needs satisfaction and need frustration questionnaire, Pittsburg sleep quality index questionnaire, and mindful, attention, awareness scale questionnaire.Results: The results of the statistical analysis showed that there is a positive and significant relationship between self-supportive behaviors and the satisfaction of basic psychological needs and between self-thwartive behaviors and the frustration of basic psychological needs.Conclusion: The results of the present study showed that athletes who develop more self-supportive behaviors in themselves experience more satisfaction of needs and are therefore more mindful and can have better sleep quality, which can be effective in their better sports performance. Therefore, it is suggested to sports coaches to take advantage of self-supportive behaviors to take interventions with the aim of helping athletes to recover themselves and to promote the satisfaction of basic psychological needs in order to improve the level of performance and mental health of athletes.
