چکیده
هدف از این پژوهش، بررسی تأثیر تمرین حافظۀ کاری بر توجه و ظرفیت حافظۀ کاری کاراته‌کاران بود. از بین کاراته‌کاران ماهر استان البرز 24 نفر از طریق نمونه‌گیری در دسترس انتخاب و به‌صورت تصادفی در دو گروه کنترل و آزمایش قرار گرفتند و پیش‌آزمون توجه و ظرفیت حافظۀ کاری را انجام دادند. سپس شرکت‌کنندگان گروه آزمایش به مدت 25 جلسه تمرین‌های حافظۀ کاری را انجام دادند و در پایان، هر دو گروه در پس‌آزمون توجه و ظرفیت حافظۀ کاری شرکت کردند. ابزار جمع‌آوری اطلاعات، آزمون حافظۀ کاری عددی و فضایی، آزمون مهارت توجه بر اساس جدول سیاه و قرمز، و نرم افزار تمرین حافظۀ کاری بود. تحلیل کوواریانس چند متغیره نشان داد تمرین حافظۀ کاری سبب افزایش ظرفیت حافظۀ کاری و توجه کاراته‌کاران گروه آزمایش شده است. بطورکلی بالا بودن ظرفیت حافظۀ کاری بر متغیرهای روان‌شناختی درگیر با عملکرد اثر مثبت گذارده و در نهایت آن را بهبود می دهد. لذا تمرین‌های حافظۀ کاری برای افزایش پاسخ‌های مناسب کاراته‌کاران در موقعیت‌های پر فشار مفید است.

چکیده [English]
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.
