This study examined pre-performance imagery use by high and low performers from golf and tennis. A Pre-Performance Imagery Questionnaire (P-PIQ), derived from the Sport Imagery Questionnaire (Hall, Mack, Paivio & Hausenblas, 1998), was developed to assess both the motivational and cognitive functions of imagery. The use of imagery was examined over (a) three days prior to competition and (b) one hour prior to competition. An exploratory factor analysis revealed the existence of distinct factors that corresponded with those derived by Hall et al., with the addition of a 'negative function' that was not identified in the Hall et al. study. Results of the factor analysis also suggest that some items may serve a different function one hour prior to competition compared with three days prior to competition. Analysis of variance was conducted to compare the functional use of imagery (i.e., cognitive versus motivational imagery) in high and low performers. An additional section of the P-PIQ was designed to examine issues of perspective, vividness, controllability, structure and regularity of imagery. The variance in high and low performers' use of these 'contextual' components of imagery was also analysed. The results indicated that high performers (in both golf and tennis) differ from low performers in their use pre-performance mental imagery. These differences were evident both one hour prior to competition and during the three days before competition. The results further indicated that mastery imagery is a strong predictor of self-efficacy. This contrasts with previous research, which failed to identify a relationship between imagery use and self-efficacy (Martin & Hall, 1995; Woolfolk, Murphy, Gottesfeld & Aiken, 1985). It is possible that these studies focussed on inappropriate aspects of mental imagery.
