ANXIETY AND THE ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE

Arousal Physiological state of readiness and psychological activation Involves the autonomic nervous system Body’s way of preparing you for “fight or flight”

Stress Non-specific response of the body to any demand made upon it Unemotional bodily response to some type of stressor Can be either good or bad, depending upon the individual’s personal interpretation Eustress ie winning the lottery Distress ie receiving a failing grade on a midterm test

Anxiety Tension and worry that results from distress A negatively charged emotional state characterized by discomfort and nervousness Two forms of anxiety: Trait anxiety: a personality characteristic State anxiety: a “right now” kind of anxiety

Anxiety Cont’d Two components of state anxiety: 1. Cognitive state anxiety (psychological component) – Caused by fear of failure – Result of worrying – “I am afraid I am going to lose” 2.Somatic state anxiety (physical component) *perception of physiological responses *’I feel nervous before a major contest”
