Sažetak
A CSAI2R questionnaire (Jones and Swain, 1992) was used on a sample of 66 female volleyball players competing at the junior championship of Dalmatia to test the level and direction of their competitive state anxiety. All subjects filled out the questionnaire about an hour before the beginning of the game. After the championship had ended, teams taking 1st to 6th place were identified. Descriptive indicators show that on average female volleyball players have a low level of somatic anxiety and a moderate level of cognitive anxiety and self-confidence. They view somatic and cognitive anxiety as irrelevant to their performance in the competition. They believe that self-confidence has a moderately positive effect on their performance. The univariate analysis of variance showed that there is a significant difference between teams in cognitive anxiety, and the level and direction of self-confidence. A post-hoc analysis was also conducted on these variables in order to determine the significance of differences between certain teams. The analysis proved that the fourth-place team experienced a significantly greater level of self-confidence right before the first championship game than the first-place and sixth-place team. In addition, the fourth-place team found that their self-confidence had a significantly more positive effect on their game performance than the first-place and second-place team.
