Summary
This study looked at whether a mental strategy called Mental Contrasting with Implementation Intentions (MCII) can boost university students' confidence to take part in tennis training. It also tested if adding WhatsApp reminders made the strategy work better. Twenty-two students from a tennis club completed a 4-week program, with some getting extra WhatsApp messages before sessions. The goal was to see if simple digital reminders can help people stick with sports.
