Abstract
The aim of this research is to determine the level of anxiety experienced by the personnel of the 25th Winter Universiade Coordination Center and to observe whether there is any correlation with certain demographic factors. Spielberg State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) was implemented as pre-test and post-test on 79 women and 144 men, 223 in total working for the coordination 4 months and 4 days before the competitions, to acquire data about the levels of anxiety. Frequency analysis for the SPSS program, independent sample t-tests and one way ANOVA were applied during the statistical evaluation of the acquired data. According to the data acquired, the study concludes that the trait anxiety level experienced by the personnel of the coordination decreased as days passed toward the beginning of the competition, and in contrast, state anxiety levels increased as the beginning of the competition approached.
