The study also aimed to know the effect of the dominant attention on making sound decisions among the first-class referees in the two games (table tennis and tennis), assuming that the level of dominant attention among the first-class referees in the two games (table tennis and tennis), as well as there is no significant relationship between the dominant attention and decision-making The soundness of the first-class referees in the two games (table tennis and tennis) and that there is a percentage of the contribution of the dominant attention to making sound decisions among the first-class referees in the two games (table tennis and tennis) in Iraq. The researchers identified a research community, and they are the tennis players in Iraq for the year 2019, who numbered 50 distributed among 18 tennis game referees and 38 table tennis referees. The experience of the rulers was greater the less they relied on mental processes to make sound decisions. While the referees of the table tennis game depend their correct decisions on the extent to which they possess the dominant attention, and it was also concluded that the percentage of the contribution of the attentional control of the referees with experience less than 5 years is greater than their peers who have more than 5 years of experience in making sound decisions, while the percentage of the contribution of control was The attention of the referees to the game of table tennis is greater than their peers in the game of tennis in making sound decisions.
