Abstract
This study explored differences in performance anxiety and theoretically related constructs across sport types. Significant differences were found by sport, team vs. individual sports, and different time constraints. Findings highlight sport-specific patterns in anxiety, arousal, and goal preferences, offering insights for tailored coaching and psychological support strategies.
