Abstract

 Sports psychology is one of the important sciences that requires deep study into psychological influences. The world around us is full of stimuli and triggers that attract our attention at every moment of consciousness. Behavior depends on an individual's judgments, expectations, and ability to deal with life situations. Therefore, good performance for female athletes plays an important role, as they constantly need to develop psychological capabilities that suit the variables of the environment surrounding them during training or competitions. From here, the importance of the research emerges in identifying the extent of the impact of complex exercises on reducing mental wandering and the performance of the skills of serving and receiving for the research sample. The researcher raised the following question: What is the extent of the impact of complex exercises on reducing mental wandering and the performance of serving and receiving skills among the research sample? The research aims to: Identify the impact of complex exercises on reducing mental wandering and the performance of serving and receiving skills for the female athletes of the College of Physical Education volleyball team. The researcher hypothesized: The existence of statistically significant differences between the results of the pre-tests and post-tests in mental wandering and the performance of serving and receiving skills for the research sample. The researcher concluded: The complex exercises used on the sample had an effective impact on the concentration of the female athletes, thereby reducing their mental wandering.
