This study aimed to explore the relationship between physical exercise and anxiety, in particular between state and trait anxiety. A sample of 33 mid-level amateur athletes was taken into consideration and was compared with a control group of 17 sedentary subjects, through a psychometric questionnaire to detect anxiety levels: the STAI-Y. The outcomes did not show a significant correlation between sports practice and anxiety levels, in neither of the subscales. The purpose is to further analyze the relationship between the two variables to overcome the limits that the current research has found.

The outcomes did not show a significant correlation between sports practice and anxiety levels, in neither of the subscales. The purpose is to further analyze the relationship between the two variables to overcome the limits that the current research has found.File in questo prodotto:
