Male’s Level of Personal Well-Being and Anxiety Trait Regarding a Sport Activity Level

Journal Title: Sport Mont - Year 2019, Vol 17, Issue 2

Abstract

The aim of the paper is to identify the level of male’s well-being and anxiety trait regarding their level of sport activity. The research group consists of 86 males (20.40±1.08 years; n: 29 recreational athletes, 21 elite athletes, 36 nonathletes). We used the BDP questionnaire to determine the level of male’s wellbeing and STAI questionnaire to determine the level of anxiety trait. We used the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test to test the normality of the data and Kruskal-Wallis test, with post-hoc Mann-Whitney U-test to test the differences between the samples. We have noticed a difference in level of well-being as well as the anxiety trait. Pair comparison of groups have showed a significant difference in level of physical problems between recreational and elite athletes. We have also noticed a difference in the level of positive attitude towards life, self-esteem, and depressive mood between recreational athletes and nonathletes. Differences were also observed between elite athletes and nonathletes – in the level of both positive dimensions of well-being and in the level of physical problems and depressive mood as well. The difference in the level of anxiety trait was noticed only between recreational athletes and nonathletes.
