Abstract

The importance of the research was to study differential reinforcement and its effectiveness in developing the tactical performance of Naft Al-Janoub players, and reinforcement methods are important pillars in establishing and enhancing psychological health in the training reality. Through follow-up, it became clear that most coaches are far from the differential reinforcement method and lack interest in it, as reinforcement stimulates the player’s motivation towards achieving the goal required of him and pushes him to exert greater effort during the matches, especially the tactical performance that is important and has an effective impact in the match, which requires coaches to focus on and develop it. One of the factors that make a team successful depends on the ability of the players, with their abilities, to combine skills in decisive tactical action. As for the objectives of the research, they were to build and apply the differential reinforcement scale for the players of Naft Al-Janoub in Basra Governorate, as well as to identify the levels of the differential reinforcement scale for the players. The researcher used the descriptive survey method because it suits the nature and problem of the research. The researcher recommended the necessity of emphasizing the positive psychological state of the players and working to create the appropriate climate for this condition to develop in a way that serves performance, as well as the necessity of working to qualify coaches by opening training courses in the technical, administrative, and psychological aspects. As well as the tactical and training aspects in order to be able to train the team successfully.
