Flow state increase performance level
When we enter a flow state we become absorbed in what we are doing, entering
a kind of consistent experience which is seemingly effortless. Examples of this
flow can be found in producing music or playing a sport. Psychologists Koehn et al.
(2013) conducted research into different performance contexts and the production of
the flow state, looking specifically at the way imagery and confidence levels interact to
create flow.
Participants completed imagery and confidence measures before undertaking a field
test. Measuring the performance of a tennis groundstroke, the researchers found a significant interaction between imagery and confidence. They were able to demonstrate
positive associations between imagery, confidence and the inducement of a flow state,
which in turn predicts increased performance. In essence, the conduction of a flow
state is seen to significantly increase performance levels in a given external task.
