Optimizing Tactical Memorization in Football: The Roleof Feedback Frequency

Résumé En

This study, within the field of Sports Psychology, specifically focuses on the implications of feedback frequency in the tactical memorization process in football. Our research aims to explore how feedback frequency directly influences players' capacity to memorize tactical phases in the context of football. The primary objective is to deepen our understanding of the underlying mechanisms through which feedback frequency impacts players' ability to integrate and implement specific tactics. This analysis opens up new perspectives for optimizing tactical learning in football, emphasizing the crucial importance of feedback frequency. Seventy-two participants, randomly selected, were divided into two distinct groups. The first group received feedback after each attempt (100% feedback frequency), while the second group received feedback after every two attempts (50% feedback frequency). In-depth analysis of dependent variables, including the number of repetitions and mental effort, reveals a significant impact, especially among beginners. These results highlight a positive correlation between higher feedback frequency and substantial performance improvement. These findings enrich our understanding and present interesting prospects for optimizing training and tactical coaching strategies in football.
