- W1783939385 abstract "This thesis examined stress and anxiety in sport from a number of differentperspectives. It is written as a series of research papers (chapters). Before the researchpapers, a critical review chapter is presented on the research and theory relevant tostress and anxiety in sport. One of the issues to arise from the review chapter was therelative merit of multidimensional anxiety theory and catastrophe models. Inmultidimensional anxiety theory, it is unclear whether cognitive anxiety and selfconfidenceare viewed as being conceptually independent or conceptually codependent.In higher-order catastrophe models, self-confidence is viewed as beingconceptually independent of cognitive anxiety and is expected to moderate theinteractive effects of cognitive anxiety and physiological arousal upon performance.One of the aims of Chapter 3 was to clarify whether cognitive anxiety and selfconfidencewere conceptually independent. This was done by means of a metaanalysisthat explored the relationships between cognitive anxiety and performance,and self-confidence and performance. The magnitude of the (positive) self-confidencemean effect size was significantly larger than the magnitude of the (negative)cognitive anxiety mean effect size. This offers evidence for the relatively stronginfluence of self-confidence upon performance. It also provides support for theconceptual independence of cognitive anxiety and self-confidence. In Chapter 4, therole of self-confidence was explored within a higher-order catastrophe modelframework. This involved an exploratory segmental analysis designed specifically forexploring bias factors in higher-order catastrophe models. This analysis supported themoderating role of self-confidence within this framework. More specifically, themaximum cognitive anxiety x somatic anxiety interaction effect size was at a higherlevel of somatic anxiety for the high self-confidence condition, when compared to thelow self-confidence condition. Another of the findings from the meta-analysis was thedearth of studies conducted with elite performers. The final research paper was aninvestigation of organizational stress within an elite environment. In view of itsexploratory nature, this study was conducted within a qualitative framework. Themajor sources of organizational stress to emerge from the interviews with eliteathletes were: selection, training environment, finances, nutrition, goals andexpectations, coaches and coaching styles, team atmosphere, roles, support network, 111and communication. A general discussion chapter follows the research papers. In thischapter, implications for future research and applied practice are discussed in relationto the project as a whole." @default.
