Abstract:
In order to examine the efficiency of covert behavior rehearsal, 33 subjects, randomly assigned to three groups, were submitted to a task in a social condition. To reduce the stress-induced anxiety, the participants of the first group had been prepare by covert behavior rehearsal in a relaxed condition. Those of the second group received only relaxation and the third group had no preparation at all. The behavior rehearsal had no positive effect on the efficacy of the task execution. Moreover, a negative influence appeared. The results are discussed.
