Abstract: | The purpose of the present study was to find out the relationship of selected psychological variables with skill performance of college soccer players. To achieve the purpose of the study, 100 male soccer players were selected randomly from the affiliated colleges of Manonmaniam Sundaranar University, Tirunelveli, Tamilnadu, who had played in Manonmaniam Sundaranar University Intercollegiate Soccer Tournaments held at St. Xavier s College, Palayamkottai, Tamilnadu during the year 2010-11. The age of the subjects ranged from 17-22 years. The following variables were selected for this study such as state anxiety, trait anxiety, aggression, mental skills, stress, self-confidence, achievement motivation, passing, dribbling, kicking, shooting and playing ability. The mode of analysis of data on the selected dependent variables and playing ability among soccer players have been statistically analyzed in two parts. In part I relationship and regression equation was found between playing ability and selected independent variables and in part II the significant difference was found by using one way analysis of variance among the different positions of play such as offense, middle and defense players in soccer on selected variables. In all the cases 0.05 level of significance was fixed to test the hypothesis. The Predictor Variables namely shooting, passing and achievement motivation can be used to predict the soccer playing ability. There was a significant relationship between the soccer playing ability and combined effect of selected psychological and skill variables. Offense, midfield and defense players in soccer had significant differences on the selected variables namely trait anxiety, stress, self-confidence and achievement motivation. Defense players in soccer were found to be better than middle and offense players on trait anxiety, stress, self-confidence and achievement motivation. newline |
