摘要：The purpose of present study was to investigate monitoring pressure on decision making and relate it to decision specific reinvestment. Subjects were 25 expert Ping-Pong players in which they performed a Ping-Pong simulated decision making task using option generation method under two conditions of low and monitoring pressure. Also, the Persian version of decision specific reinvestment scale and competitive sport anxiety inventory-2 were used. Results of multivariate analysis of variance with repeated measure revealed that pressure had a significant effect on cognitive anxiety (P≤0.05). Also, the results revealed that there were significant differences between some decision-making variables including first option quality, dynamic inconsistency and generation time under low and monitoring pressure (P≤0.05). Decision reinvestment only could predict the first option quality changes. Thus coaches and athletes are offered to have knowledge about the different pressure conditions and expert athletes to avoid the self-focus intentions under pressure.
