ABSTRACT

Introduction: The concentration of attention is the ability to maintain focused attention on a task or object, generating a concentrated persistence of attention, this variable being useful in sports as part of psychological preparation component.
Objective: to determine the influence in concentration of attention on the free throw effectiveness in senior female basketball players of the Universidad de las Fuerzas Armadas ESPE.
Methods: The study is descriptive and correlational non-experimental. The population of senior players of ESPE Club (15 subjects between 18-27 years old) is studied, randomly evaluating 10 basketball games between the years 2017-2018, and applying a effectiveness test in free throws, as well as the concentration of attention test of Toulouse Pierón.
Results: The average level of effectiveness in free throws is set at 8.07 hits between 13.53 attempts (Average effectiveness: 58.19%), for a qualitative evaluation of "Poor", while the average established at Concentration of Attention level (CA) was determined at 41.47 points (Medium Level). The linear correlation established between the variables "Concentration of attention" and "Free throws effectiveness", determined the existence of a high positive correlation (,817).
Conclusions: when contrasting the results of this study with others consulted in the literature, it can be affirmed that by increasing the concentration of attention, the free throws effectiveness of basketball is significantly increased.
