Résumé
This study aimed to examine the influence of specific action verb (AV "jump") pronunciation and mental subtraction (MS) upon motor performance (vertical squat jump. VSJ) compared with kinesthetic imagery (KI). The results show that specific AV, mental calculation, and KI improved the vertical jump in male, but not in female.
