According to the results of the T-Test, it exerted significant effects on the factors of intrinsic motivation (p<.05), confidence (p<.01), and goal setting (p<.05). Conclusion: For field training and supervision, they received training for license grade 2 and then made plans for field training. Submitting an application form for training to Korean Society of Sport Psychology, they got approved. The psychological support team consisted of five trainees and two supervisors.

Purpose: In Korea, it is generally believed that national soccer team is prone to miss a goal at definite chance remarkably, compared with foreign teams. Even though it has long history and wide social attention, there has been few efforts to confirm whether this belief is true or not. In this study, we presumed that the belief around Korean national soccer team's performance is a cognitive bias and stereotype coined and reinforced by the sports media and examined this belief empirically. Methods: The whole data of official matches between Korean and foreign national soccer teams over the 2000-2013 period were collected and 205 matches statistics of 77 national teams including Korean were analyzed. The ‘chance-to-goal ability’ between Korean and foreign national teams were compared. And then, Korean team's ‘chance-to-goal ability’ was compared by match results and relative team's strength to opponent team in detail. Results: There is no significant difference in ‘chance-to-goal ability’ between Korean and foreign national soccer teams. In addition, Korean team's ‘chance-to-goal ability’ varied by match results and opponent team's strength. Lastly, there is negligible correlation between ‘chance-to-goal ability’ and team's strength. Conclusion: The ‘chance-to-goal ability’ of Korean national soccer team is not different from that of foreign teams, and this result goes against deep-rooted belief. The probable causes of the result and implications for the future research are discussed.
