This study aimed to evaluate the impact of anxiety on the perception about the performance of the national athletes. It was hypothesized that anxiety will positively affect the performance of the athletes. The sample consisted of 350 national athletes. Data were collected using non-probability convenient sampling technique from four provinces of Pakistan (Punjab, KPK, Sindh and Balochistan). Data were collected using the Sports Anxiety Scale-2 (SAS-2; Smith et al., 2006) and performance was measured through the number of medals won by the athlete. The results suggest that exercise anxiety reduces the performance of the national players/athletes. |
