  1. Anxious Swimmers

  2. Background • Cognitive vs. Somatic Anxiety • Outcome measures • Inter vs. Intra Individual performance • CA = linear performance • SC = linear performance • SA = inverted U performance

  3. Task & Anxiety • CA or SA more detrimental to fine task? • Task Duration & SA • Task Complexity & SA • Decision characteristics • Perceptual characteristics • Motor Response characteristics

  4. Purpose & Hypotheses • Clean up previous methodological issues. • #1: CA more related to performance than SA • #2: SA = inverted U; CA & SA = linear. • #3: Short duration w/ h or l task complexity events have a stronger relationship between SA and performance.

  5. Method • 2 Samples • 1: CSAI-2 3X (early, mid, championship) • 2: CSAI-2 2X (2 days prior to competition and again w/in 1 hour of race) • Perf. measure: Current – PR = score • Converted to 50m scores • Duration: >100=S; 200<x>400=M; 800<=L • Complexity: based upon event

  6. Results from #1 • CA & SC significantly related to perf. 3X • SA only at mid. • Anxious swimmer DO swim slower • SC relationship to performance supported • CSAI-2-cog = better predictor variable

  7. Results from #2 & #3 • All three predictions supported. (2) • Duration: • S events: CSAI-2-som significant (cog still stronger). • M: CSAI-2-som declined • L: CSAI-2-som increased again • Complexity: • CSAI-2-som more important on both ends • Not the same though.
