This can be important in reducing sports injuries in practices such as running, which has seen an increase in adherence. However, the impacts of these strategies on postural control in runners are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of internal and external focus strategies on postural control performance with different bases of support tasks in runners. A total of 19 young adults (18\u201338\u00a0years old) were divided into a running group (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20099) and a control group (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200910). Posturography tests were performed on stable and unstable surfaces, under control, and internal and external focus conditions. The distance, mean velocity, and total velocity of the center of pressure were analyzed (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009\u2264\u2009.05). There was a reduction in oscillation under external focus compared to internal and control conditions, as well as under internal focus compared to the control condition. A Group\u2009\u00d7\u2009Surface\u2009\u00d7\u2009Focus interaction for the variables distance and mean velocity in the mediolateral direction was found only for the control group. However, no significant effects were found between groups for postural control performance. Attentional focus strategies were able to reduce postural sway, with external focus condition being the most effective. Practitioners can benefit from these strategies to increase postural control performance to help reduce the number of injuries and improve sports performance. It is speculated that the effects of attentional control strategies on postural control may differ depending on the specific adaptations of each sport.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1123\/mc.2024-0013","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,8,26]],"date-time":"2024-08-26T17:55:48Z","timestamp":1724694948000},"page":"17-36","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Attentional Focus Strategies Can Improve Performance of Postural Control in Runners"],"prefix":"10.1123","volume":"29","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0002-7445-9001","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Anderson R.","family":"Delunardo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Biomechanical Analysis of Movement Laboratory (Bio.
