Abstract
The aim of this study was to identify resource-efficient individual experiences handball national team athletes. This was a qualitative study and applied phenomenology as its methodology. The research community, athletes, field handball national team in 1393 (2014), which were selected purposefully and snowball method. Participants (8 men and 4 women) voluntarily participated in this study. For data collection, semi-structured interviews were used. Data were analyzed using themed analysis. The study was an attempt by the standards of credibility, reliability, and portability Verifiability is reliable. The findings obtained from the interviews, resource-efficient individual participants in 4 explanatory Code "sports experiences", "practical experience", "social experience", "mental experiments" were identified. The findings were similar to other theories and were complementary and special in some regards. Some findings were contradictory. This study of the subject individual efficiency to achieve more success in the international sports arena offers a handball Iran.

Abstract
This study examined the comparison of exercise self-efficacy and indices of well-being based on different orientations to activities among physically-motion disables and veterans. 123 physically-motion disables and veterans filled the questionnaires of exercise self-efficacy, hedonia and eudemonia motives for activities, positive and negative affect and subjective vitality.The results showed that only eudemonia motive positively associated with positive affect and vitality. Exercise self-efficacy positively associated with eudemonic well-being. There were significant differences between different orientation to activities on positive affect and vitality. People whose lives were high in eudemonia had higher degrees of positive affect and vitality than people whose lives in the lower degree of both hedonia and eudemonia (empty life). Also, people whose lives were in both high eudemonia and hedonia (full life) had the higher degree of positive affect than people whose lives in empty life.The finding show of crucial role of eudemonia on well-being among physically-motion disables and veterans, and the combination of hedonia and eudemonia may be associated with optimal well-being.

Abstract
Sport psychology and its role is important effect on successful in physical education. One of following a field of sport psychology that affects performance, is self-efficacy. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of raising expected impact on performance and learning with an emphasis on self-efficacy and competence Put Golf is perceived. In terms of content this study was applicable. The experimental design was pretest-posttest with two large and small target groups. For this purpose, a sample of 34 students were divided into two groups (n=17), participated in this study. Students perform 5 blocks efforts in the pre-test, then the acquisition phase which contains 5 blocks of 10 trials and then the retention and transfer was performed in 12 attempts. After checking the normality of the data, independent t- test and analysis of variance (repeated measure ANOVA) was used. The findings of this study showed that learning putting golf balls between large and small target groups significantly different (p<0.05), But there isn’t significant difference between the two groups in efficacy and perceived competence. The results showed that enhanced expectancies significant impact on learning motor skills of golf putting golf in the retention and transfer test, while enhanced expectancies had no significant effect on self-efficacy and perceived competence.

Abstract
In this study, the effectiveness of student-centered and coach-centered coaching styles on sport self-efficacy and athletic performance of female gymnasts was studied. The research method was quasi-experimental and a pre-test-post-test design was used. The statistical population was female gymnasts aged 11-14 in Tehran. The sampling method is one-stage clusters and the research sample is 40 female gymnasts who were selected based on Cochran's formula. Variable assessment tools included Sport Self-Efficacy Questionnaire (Sahraeian et al 2016) and a researcher-made sports performance questionnaire. After the pre-test, the groups performed the athlete-centered and coach-centered training protocol separately for two months and two days a week in one-and-a-half-hour sessions. Covariance analysis was used to test the hypotheses. Findings in the pre-test stage showed that sport self-efficacy and athletic performance of female gymnasts in the student-centered group were significantly higher than the coach-centered group (P <0.05). It is concluded that student-centered coaching style is more effective in increasing Gymnasts' sports self-efficacy and athletic performance compared to coach-centered, and coaches are suggested to pay special attention to student-centered exercises in the gymnastics girls' training program.

Abstract
Introduction: Motor learning has been measured differently based on two essential factors of OPTIMAL theory (autonomy support and increased expectations). Giving choice has been widely used in this field, but it has not been fully investigated in the learning of throwing skills according to these two factors.
Purpose: The present study aimed to investigate the benefits of giving choices using the order of practice choice on learning the putting accuracy skills and the psychological components of perceived autonomy and self-efficacy beliefs.
Method: In this quasi-experimental study, 24 novice participants with a mean age of 24.87 ± 3.26 were randomly assigned to experimental (n=12) and yoked (n=12) groups. Immediately after a 10-trial pretest, participants practiced three new tasks (visual cues, auditory cues, chest bar) to putt a golf ball into the center hole in six blocks. Then, the learning was measured during a 24-hour follow-up period under conditions completely similar to the pretest (10 trials).
Findings: The study assessed participants' skill accuracy, perceived autonomy, and self-efficacy across all three experimental phases. Mixed-design analysis of variance revealed that the order in which practice was structured significantly influenced golf putting accuracy, self-efficacy, and perceived autonomy (p ≥ 0.05).
Conclusion: The possibility of task-related small choices enhances perceived autonomy self-efficacy and, which leads to improved motor learning. Therefore, these findings are consistent with optimal theory.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of the type of goal setting and self-recording on acquisition and self-regulation learning of basketball free throw. Seventy middle school student boys were selected for available and randomly allocated to 6 experimental groups and one control group. A factor ANOVA with a significant level of 5% (p < 0.05) was conducted to analyze the self-efficacy and performance data in acquisition and retention tests. The results showed that the goal-setting with the self-recording group has a higher self-efficacy and performance than the goal-setting without self-recording and the control groups in acquisition and retention test of basketball free throw. This research showed that a variety of goals can begin to combine and cause positive results in performance and learning. Self-recording is important for performance and self-efficacy and can be easily taught and used during physical education sessions.
