ABSTRACT:
The present study compared changes in cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety, and self-confidence prior to competition by high school gymnasts and collegiate golfers. A version of the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory (CSAI-2) was administered 24 hours, one hour, and ten minutes prior to competition. Results of ANOVAs showed the golfers and gymnasts to have different patterns of change in the CSAI-2 subcomponents. The gymnasts displayed an increase in cognitive and somatic anxiety and a decrease in self-confidence while the golfers showed a decrease in cognitive anxiety, an increase in self-confidence and no change in somatic anxiety. Overall, the golfers had lower cognitive and somatic anxiety and higher self-confidence than the gymnasts. Multiple regression analyses indicated none of the CSAI-2 subcomponents was able to significantly predict high school gymnastic and collegiate golf performance. The results are discussed in terms of differences in sports, competitive conditions, and skill and experience levels. Compares changes in the cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety, and self-confidence of female high school gymnasts (n=36) and female collegiate golfers (n=44) prior to competition. Subjects respond to Martens et al's Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2) at intervals of 24 hours, one hour, and ten minutes prior to competition. Results indicate that golfers and gymnasts show different patterns of change in the CSAI-2 subcomponents. Gymnasts display an increase in cognitive and somatic anxiety, and a decrease in self-confidence, while golfers show a decrease in cognitive anxiety, an increase in self-confidence, and no change in somatic anxiety. Overall, golfers reveal lower levels of cognitive and somatic anxiety and higher levels of self-confidence than gymnasts.
