ABSTRACT:
We administered psychometric inventories including the Profile of Mood States (POMS), the Sports Attitude Inventory (SAI), the Sport Competition Anxiety Test (SCAT), the Controlled Repression-Sensitization Scale (CR-S), Levenson's Locus of Control (LOC), the Eysenck Personality Inventory (EPI), and the Psychological Skills Inventory for Sport (PSIS) to 22 male and 21 female telemark skiers. The data were analyzed using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) by skill level (expert, extreme) and gender. Wilks' criterion indicated no significant skill effects in mood states, locus of control, or personality characteristics. Males exhibited significantly less anxiety management but greater self-confidence than females across psychological skills. Telemarkers displayed lower tension, depression, anger, confusion, total mood disturbance, and higher vigor compared to normatives. The subjects displayed similar mood states and psychological skills associated with athletes in other sports.
