Abstract
The purpose of the present study was to determine the effects of cognitive and meta-cognitive strategies in difficulty of decision making on the accuracy of forehand top spin in table tennis. The 29 skilled male players with 21.20±9.24 years old were divided into 3 Meta cognitive strategies (MCS), groups cognitive strategies (CS), and control group. The level of difficulty of decision making was determined by colour of ball and impact place during forehand top spin. Pre-test was performed and then, subjects practiced 15 blocks of 20 trials in during the acquisition phase, after 48 hours, the retention and transfer tests were performed. The data in acquisition phase were analyzed by ANOVA with repeated measures, and retention and transfer tests were analyzed by one-way ANOVA. The results showed that there is a significant difference between the meta cognitive strategies group and other groups in retention and transfer phases. The findings suggested that applying meta-cognitive strategies could help to improve skills which requires difficulty of decision making.
