The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of working memory training on attention skill and capacity working memory among karate athletes. A number of 24 karate athletes were selected from Alborz's skilled karate athletes by convenience sampling and randomly assigned into control and experimental groups. They were asked to complete working memory capacity and attention tests. Then experimental group underwent a 25-session working memory training course. Finally, both group completed the tests again. Instruments included digit and spatial working memory test, black and red attention test, and working memory training software. Multivariate analysis of covariance showed that working memory training resulted in increase in working memory capacity and attention. Generally, based on the findings, working memory training is useful to increase karate athletes’ appropriate responses in high-pressure situations.
