The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of eight-weeks traditional and sport-education of clay court tennis skills on metacognition and meta-excitement of 15-18 years old feamales.
The method of this study was quasi-experimental with pre-test-post-test design. Subjects were included 24 females (age: 16.54± 1.36years) that were randomly divided two groups of 12 people (SE and traditional). Exercises were included 14-sessions for 4-weeks (3-sessions the first two-week and 4-sessions the second two-week). Research instruments including Wells-Metacognition Questionnaire and Mittmansgrober-Meta-excitement Questionnaire. For statistical analysis, were used analysis of covariance and paired t-test.
The results showed that there was a significantly difference between the two groups of SE and traditional in increasing the rate of meta-cognition(p=0.004), positive meta-excitement (p=0.007) and negative meta-excitement (p=0.015). In the SE, metacognition(p=0.001), positive meta-excitement (p=0.001) significantly increased and negative meta-excitement (p=0.001) were significantly improved compared to the pre-test, but This rate of improvement in the group of exercises by traditional was not-significant in metacognition(p=0.881), positive meta-excitement (p=0.116) and negative meta-excitement (p=0.144).
The results show that knowledge and use of SE method strategies have a positive effect on metacognitive performance and meta-excitement. Therefore, it is recommended that beginners enjoy the benefits of improving metacognitive and meta-excitement knowledge by performing SE-type sports activities in addition to using physical benefits.
