Ioan Sabin Sopa (2021)This study focused on analyzing the anxiety level of a volleyball team. The research sample was the mini volleyball representative of ACS Alpha Sport Team, composed of 15 volleyball players of female gender (n=15), with age between 8-11 years old (10.07±2.04 years old) experience of 1-2 years.It was structured on two evaluations, one in September 2019 – the initial evaluation of anxiety level, and one in February 2020 that analyzed the final level of anxiety of the team. It was observed that the final anxiety level (average 17.33) was lower than the initial one (23.33). The conclusions of the investigation highlighted that anxiety represents a serious problem in sport competition and that if we train our team with mental coaching and psychological evaluation, we can prevent the rise of the anxiety level and also improve sportive results.

Laura Swettenham et.al (2020) The purpose of this study was to examine stress and coping in both competition and practice in tennis and to further investigate gender difference using Think Aloud protocol (TA) in real-time. 16 (8 males and 8 females) competitive tennis players took part. A within groups design was implemented, and participants verbalised their thoughts between points of a championship tie-break during a practice and a competition condition. Data were transcribed verbatim, analysed for stressors and coping responses using deductive analysis. A CSAI-2R questionnaire was used to assess anxiety levels prior to practice and competition. CSAI-2R results showed cognitive anxiety significantly increased from practice to competition. Males verbalised significantly more performance stress in competition and physical stress in practice. Females verbalised external stress and utilise problem-focused responses more in competition than practice. Problem-focused coping was utilised most for males andfemales in both conditions. Conclusion: Through the use of a novel data collection method (TA) this study provides context-specific findings within tennis, which support previous research in stress and coping where gender differences occur only for the type of stressor appraised.

Marco Correia & A. Rosado (2019)This study aimed to investigate athletes' sport anxiety regarding differences in gender and sport played. An application of structural equation modeling was made, with 601 Portuguese athletes. From them 172 (28.6%) were female and 429 (71.4%) were male. They competed in a variety of individual (e.g., athletics, climbing, orienteering, surfing, swimming, tennis; 42.6%) and team sports (e.g., basketball, handball, rugby, soccer, volleyball; 57.4%). Participants' age ranged from 12 to 47 years (M = 17.44 years; SD = 4.99). After testing the measurement invariance of the first and second-order models, across gender and type of sport (individual vs. team), latent mean comparisons were investigated and Cohen's d (1988) statistic was computed to obtain the corresponding effect sizes (Kline, 2016). Significant differences were detected between male and female athletes and between individual and team sports. Female and individual sports athletes presented higher levels of general sports anxiety. The results of this research provided evidence that anxiety is appraised differently by athletes based on their gender and type of sport.

A. Khan &Biruk A.Sorate (2016)“A Comparative Study of Sports Competition Anxiety within Jimma University Male Players of different Sports” The purpose of the study was to analyze and compare the Sports Competition Anxiety between Jimma university players. For the purpose of this study 50 players (Football, Basketball, Table Tennis, Athletics and Gymnastics) were selected from Jimma University, Ethiopia as the subject. All these players were going to represent Jimma University in 9th Ethiopian Governmental Higher Institutions Sports Festival in 2016. For this study sports competition anxiety test (SCAT, Martens et al., 1990) questionnaire was used to measure sports competition anxiety. Descriptive Statistic (Mean, Standard Deviation), Independent t-test was applied to analyze and compare the degree of Sports Competitive Anxiety between Jimma university male players. The level of Significance was set at 0.05. Results indicated that there are significant differences found within Jimma University male players (Football, Basketball, Table Tennis, Athletics and Gymnastics) in their Sports Competition Anxiety.

Najmuddin Khan &Kehkashan Aziz(2015) “Conducted a study with the aim to compare the sports competitive anxiety and sports achievement motivation between basketball players and all India intervarsity track runners”. Forty six male subjects (23 basketball players and 23 all India intervarsity track runners) were recruited as subjects for the study. Their age ranged from 18 to 25 years. For the acquisition of psychological data of the participants of sports achievement motivation questionnaire developed by Kamlesh (1990) and for sports competitive anxiety questionnaire developed by Martin (1984) was used. The data of basketball players were acquired from the north zone intervarsity competition held at bareilly, data of track runners were acquired from All India Intervarsity Athletic meet held at Mangalore. The‘t’ test was used to analyze data. Results indicated that no significant difference was found between basketball players and all India intervarsity track runners in their sports competition anxiety and sports achievement motivation.

Dr. Dabir. R &Qureshi (2015) “Studied a comparative study of anxiety test between college level table tennis and volleyball players”.The purpose of this study was to compare the sports competition anxiety test between college level Table Tennis and Volleyball players. For the purpose of the study, thirty (30) players each of Volleyball and Table Tennis were randomly selected irrespective of gender as subjects for this study. The subject’s age ranged between 19 to 27 years. For this study sports competition anxiety test (SCAT, Martens et al., 1990) questionnaire was used to measure sports competition anxiety. SCAT questionnaire was distributed between the subjects 30minutes before the competition. The hypothesis selected for this study was that there would be no significant difference between Table Tennis and Volleyball players. For analysis of the data independent ‘t’ test was used. The level of significance was set at 0.05. The mean score of Table Tennis players was 19.50 and Volleyball player was 22.50. The calculated ‘t’ value was 3.95 which showed that significant difference was found between Table Tennis players and Volleyball players (calculated‘t’ 3.95 >tabulated‘t’ 1.675).
