Abstrakt: The Relation of Psychometric Scales with Cortisol Concentration in Athletic Performance in Team Sports: A Systematic Review. JEPonline 2018;21(4):20-40. The purpose of this study was to systematically analyze scientific publications on the relation of psychometric scales and cortisol concentrations and its interactions with athletic performance in professional team sports. The methodology used followed the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The inclusion criteria were: (a) studiespublished between 1999 and present; (b) studies written in English; (c) studies that sampled only high-level adult athletes; and (d) studies that analyzed athletic performance that also considered both the cortisol concentrations and psychometric variables. After applying the inclusion criteria, a total of 10 studies were included in this review. The studies reported negative changes in the athletes' mood state after the competition for the defeated teams. With regard to the relation between athletic performance with cortisol concentrations, some studies reported an increase in cortisol concentration in athletes from the defeated teams and other studies reported an increase in cortisol in athletes from the winning teams. Hence, while the application of Profile of Mood States (POMS) seems to be more sensitive to changes after competition, the moments before the game, questionnaires directed to anxiety present more interesting results during the moments before the competition. In addition, since the increase on cortisol concentration can be related to many internal and external factors (such as opponent level, playing in the hometown or not, the duration of the match, and the athletes' individuality) that may compromise the athletes' chances of winning, the post-match effects on the cortisol remain unclear.
