Leaders, athletes, and scholars alike note that a strong mind plays an important role in performance. The purpose of this study was to explore the impact self-talk (ST) has on mental toughness (MT) and performance; specifically, the impact of motivational self-talk (MST) and instructional self-talk (IST) on performance and the extent to which MT operates as a mediator. It was proposed that MST is positively related to performance and the effect will be significantly higher than a control group or IST. Also, it was proposed that MT will statistically mediate the relationship between ST and performance. Three groups of individuals (N = 20 per group) 18 years or older, performed three exercises (timed run, max squats, max sit-ups) followed by a video: motivational, instructional, healthy eating (control group); coupled with building of self-talk phrases aligned with the condition. One week later, participants re-watched their video combined with building self-talk phrases, then re-tested the three exercises to assess change in performance. Results indicated that MST and IST groups were not related to a change in performance greater than the control group (beta = -.23, t[58] = -.99, p = .32), nor was the MST group related to a change in performance larger than the IST group (beta = .12, t(58) = .47, p = .64). Although mediation analyses revealed that MT did not statistically mediate the effect of either ST condition on performance, follow-up regression analyses revealed that MT accounted for 35% of the variance in performance increases (F[1, 49] = 6.67, p = .01), suggesting that MT is predictive of an athlete's ability to develop over time. Path analysis was used to explore how the role of each individual component of MT (confidence, constancy, control) plays in the relationship between ST ratings (actual ST enacted) and performance. Results indicated that the effect of self-talk ratings on performance was not statistically mediated through facets of MT (chi2 = 24.63, df = 8, p < .01; RMSEA = .19; CFI = .65). Future implications and research are suggested to enhance the impact of self-talk and mental toughness.
