Programação neurolinguística e as tomadas de decisão no futsal

Abstract

Futsal is a sport characterized by the constant unpredictability present in the actions of those who practice the modality, requiring that the training process prepare the athletes for such a degree of uncertainties. In this way, alternative means must be sought, such as the application of Neurolinguistic Program (NLP) techniques to develop a player's decision-making capacity. The central objective was to analyze the effects of NLP on futsal training and its impacts on the quality of decision making. The specific objectives identified the information processing mechanism for decision making, based on the use of NLP for futsal, the use of NLP for the quality of decision making.. To carry out the research a 10 session futsal training program using NLP techniques was applied to 10 students of a social project. They participated in the study in average and two years of practice in the modality, that signed the terms of clarification, consent and authorization of filming and had at least 75% of attendance in the trainings. An anchorage for technique most used during training. The training instructions and activities sought to stimulate as three sensory pathways proposed by NLP (auditory, sensory and kinesthetic). The instrument used to collect data for a futsal adaptation of the Football Tactical Assessment System (FUT-SAT), measuring a quality of actions through the Tactical Performance Index (IPT). A descriptive analysis was performed to analyze the data. The results were divided in four dimensions: 1) Variation of the number of tactical actions, 2) Variation of IPT for each principle, 4) Variation of IPTs of game, attack and defense. All of these dimensions presented the difference between the 1st and 2nd evaluation. It was concluded that it is an application of the NLP during the training of futsal, has been reason for increase in the result of the cited dimensions. The limitations of this research are due to the small size of the sample, the technical level of the participants, the lack of application space, the absence of other statistical analyzes and the increase of other variables.. Due to the low exploitation of NLP in the context of futsal training, it is necessary to have new studies that approach this theme to enrich a current literature.
