Research has demonstrated a positive link between se and exercise behaviour, particularly when individuals are faced with challenges. Correlation evidecnet has identified a relationship between exercise imagery and se (e. g. , wesch et al. , 2006); however it is not known whether or not the different types of. Se can be independently influenced and whether or not this can be done using an imagery intervention (this comes from regular exercisers, not exercise initiators) The purpose of the present study was to determine if the three types of se could be differentially influenced using guided imagery interventions in an experimental design controlling for overt mastery experiences. N = 61 females (completed study) all exercise initiators, so not overly fit. Participants were assessed a baseline, mid point and after the completion of the intervention.
