Abstract
Using the State-Trait Anxiety Theory, a study about pre competitive anxiety in a 3rd division soccer team players is presented. During five soccer games, the CSAI-2 was individually administrated, a few minutes before starting, and the scores of cognitive, somatic and self-reliance anxiety were taken. All of the soccer games were video taped and then several impartial observers transcribed illicit or/and erroneous sport behaviors during the games: aggression, complains to the referee, serious sport mistakes, penalties, etc. In this analysis we try to assess if the score in a pre competitive anxiety inventory predicts some of these behaviors during the competition. No statistically significant correlation between CSAI-2 scores and sport illicit behaviors were found.
