  1. Intensity & Direction of Comp. State Anxiety…

  2. Purpose & Hypothesis • Find a way to delve further into the directionality of anxiety measures. • None due to exploratory nature of study.

  3. Method • 69 Intramural athletes • CSAI-2 modified to include directionality of -3 to +3. • Sport Orientation Questionnaire • Only used the competitiveness subscale. • Note: an exploratory study is tough to do in a positivist framework. Constructivism is a better methodology to utilize when a basic understanding is what you desire.

  4. Results • No differences between groups (median split of competitiveness). • High competitiveness: anxiety viewed as facilitative. • Low competitiveness: SC lower & less facilitative. • All groups had a + mean direction score.

  5. Discussion • Contradictory results to their earlier study that used intercollegiate athletes. • Does that matter? • Overall positive means for both CA & SA. • Does that make sense?
