Psychometric properties of the CSAI-2R direction and intensity scales in Argentine rugby players
Main Article Content
Abstract
Pre-competitive state-anxiety is characterized by worry and tension associated with the activation of the organism that can impact sports performance. Within the multidimensional theory, the Revised Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 (CSAI-2R) has been developed to assess somatic anxiety, cognitive anxiety and self-confidence prior to a sports competition. The objective of this study was to provide evidence of validity and reliability for the CSAI-2R in the direction and intensity subscales in male Argentine rugby players. 446 players from the province of Buenos Aires participated (M = 16.29 years of age; SD = .62). Confirmatory Factor Analysis provided evidence for three-factor models in both subscales, preserving all the items and replicating their multidimensional structure. Internal consistency values were greater than .71. The inventory has shown adequate psychometric properties to assess pre-competitive psychological states in Argentine youth rugby players.
