Enquête sur les modes d’existence

espanolLa programacion neurolinguistica (PNL) es un enfoque de comunicacion, desarrollo personal y psicoterapia. El objetivo de este estudio fue realizar un analisis bibliometrico de las publicaciones en PNL. Para ello se diseno este estudio observacional, descriptivo y retrospectivo de las publicaciones en PNL entre 1983-2018. Se seleccionaron las publicaciones en PNL en este periodo que estaban escritas en ingles/espanol. Se excluyeron las que incluian otras disciplinas, tenian formato diferente a un articulo, y/o no tenian acceso integro al texto. Los resultados de la productividad en PNL muestran una tendencia irregular pero creciente durante 1983-2008 (media de 3,2 publicaciones/ano en 1999-2008), aumentando a 7,2 publicaciones/ano en 2009-2013 y alcanzando 11,6 publicaciones/ano en 2014-2018. En el ultimo quinquenio (2014-2018), los estudios practicos en PNL se incrementaron en comparacion con los anos previos y las publicaciones en el area de la educacion/aprendizaje fueron las mas numerosas. EUA era el pais que mas publicaba en 1983-2013, pero en 2014-2018 las publicaciones se han distribuido entre los diferentes paises. Este es, segun nuestro conocimiento, el primer estudio bibliometrico en PNL a nivel internacional. Se observa un aumento considerable de la productividad en PNL en los ultimos 10 anos (2009-2018). EnglishNeuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a communication, personal development and psychotherapy approach. The aim of this study was to perform a bibliometric analysis of publications in NLP. For this purpose, this observational, descriptive and retrospective study of publications in NLP was designed between 1983-2018. Publications on NLP in this period that were written in English or Spanish were selected. Those that included other disciplines, had a different format to an article, and/or did not have full access to the text were excluded. The productivity results in NLP show an irregular but growing trend during 1983-2008 (mean of 3.2 publications/year in 1999-2008), rising to 7.2 publications/year in 2009-2013 and reaching 11.6 publications/year in 2014-2018. In the last quinquennium (2014-2018), practical studies in NLP increased compared to previous years and publications in the area of ​​education/learning were the most frequent. The US was the country that most published in NLP in 1983-2013, but in 2014-2018 it was more distributed among different countries. This is, to our knowledge, the first bibliometric study in NLP internationally. In the last 10 years (2009-2018), a substantial increase in productivity in NLP has been observed.

Análisis bibliométrico de las publicaciones en programación neurolingüística entre 1983-2018

Abstract To examine the effect of neurolinguistic programming (NlP) and its processes on psychosomatic skills (cognitive anxiety and somatic anxiety), basic skills (self-confidence and physical self-esteem), and athletic performance of young Tunisian swimmers. For this study, we use the NLP techniques for mental preparation. Semi-structured interviews were used with the tow psychological scale to measure mental skills. Sportive performance were measured before and after intervention. This study is quantitative research with the pretest-posttest design. Six adolescent swimmers (3 girls and 3 boys); M age = 15.8 years participated for six months in a mental preparation program based on neurolinguistic programming techniques. The results of this work showed better management of anxiety during the competition, as well as an improvement in self-confidence and physical self-esteem. We also note an important amelioration in the athlete's performance (from 0.77% to 2.5%). In view of the positive results obtained during this study, especially in terms of anxiety management and performance improvement, we suggest more exploration of the effect of different NLP techniques in sport. We also recommend more frequent use of NLP with athletes. 

Mental training for young athlete: A case of study of NLP practice

Judo is a multifactorial sport where many variables or key performance indicators (KPIs) such as force-velocity profile, bioenergetic capacity, technical and tactical skills, and cognitive and emotional competence play a role and influence the final result. While there have been many academic studies of these variables, usually in isolation, none have examined KPIs holistically or analyzed their impact on strategic performance. The main objective of the present study, therefore, is to apply a novel and easily replicable methodology to identify and prioritize the main KPIs affecting performance in professional judo. Such a methodology was applied to the High-Performance Judo Centre of Valencia, using a multi-criteria decision aid technique: the analytic network process (ANP). The ANP is used to identify and quantify cause and effect relationships not only between KPIs but also between KPIs and performance objectives. Further, the ANP offers effective results when there is a lack of historical KPI data, because it is based on experts' opinions and judgments. A judo expert group (JEG) comprising elite judo coaches and half-lightweight (under 66 kg) male judokas applied the methodology to discriminate between the characteristics required when aiming to reach high-level strategic objectives (such as participating in the Olympic Games or winning a medal in a Grand Slam/Gran Prix). The JEG, which consisted of five elite judokas, national and international champions, and three Olympic coaches-including a former European champion and silver medalist in a world championship-provided high added value to the study. The main findings were that the KPIs that made the most difference were mostly psychological, specifically motivation, stress, and team cohesion. Of these, motivation was by far the most important KPI for success in our case study, so judokas should make sure that they analyze it properly. Motivation is usually intrinsic to the competitor and should be maintained at a high level, not only during tournaments but also during daily training and lifestyle activities. Physical and other specific forms of training, as well as lifestyle KPIs, are very important for the elite competitor but are not sufficient to reach high-level objectives. The most important of these KPIs were Kumi-Kata (grip work), dual career, focus and concentration level, scouting, nutrition, and basic technique. Power and strength were the most important physical KPIs. In general, these are essential for meeting strategic objectives, but they do not make the crucial difference. This suggests that professional psychological support should be provided in daily training and that international team composition and internships should be fostered.

Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a cognitive constructivist approach to improving human communication and behaviour, which focuses on how people organise their thoughts, feelings and language. The main objective of this study was to assess the impact of an NLP course on self-esteem. A quasi-experimental, controlled study with pre-post measures was designed. A total of 54 subjects participated (21 in the experimental group and 33 in the control group). Self-esteem was measured using an ad-hoc questionnaire (8 items, the first 6 of which were adapted from the Rosenberg scale). The experimental group showed increases in self-esteem in all 8 items compared to the control group, and in 6 items (5 of them adapted from the Rosenberg scale) the differences were statistically significant. The percentage change between the two groups ranged from 11% to 36%. This study provides empirical evidence of the effectiveness and usefulness of NLP in increasing people's self-esteem. It also describes various applications of NLP and various implications of self-esteem enhancement in learning and education, as well as in other aspects of people's personal and professional lives.
