Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of neuro-linguistic programming training ‎on self-presentation and self-esteem of climbers. The executive approach of this research was ‎the pretest and posttest method with control group. The population of the study was the ‎climbers of Tehran province. The number of participants in the study was 30 where 15 were ‎considered as the control group and 15 patients were in experimental group.‎ The climbers sampling method for participation in the research was random sampling. To ‎measure the variables of study trait Sport-confidence Inventory, State-Sport Confidence ‎Inventory and sport self-presentation questionnaire were used.  For data analysis, t-test was ‎applied by using SPSS software. The results showed that there is a significant difference in ‎both experimental and control groups about self-presentation after neuro-linguistic ‎programming training and post-test mean scores in the experimental group dropped off ‎significantly.‎ The mean score of experimental group significantly increased in the post-test of state ‎confidence and there is a significance relationship between the control and experimental groups ‎in trait confidence after training then euro-linguistic programming strategies. The mean score ‎of experimental group significantly increased in the post-test of trait-confidence and there is a ‎significance relationship between the control and experimental groups in state confidence after ‎neuro-linguistic programming training‎‎‎.
