Presentation transcript:

 This law states that arousal improves performance up to an optimal point. Past this point, performance begins to decrease. When drawn on a graph this appears as an upside down U shape.

 Activity: Some sports are better performed at low arousal, mainly those which require small, precision movements and control.  Which sports?

 Skill level: Beginners to a sport require all of their attention to be focused on the task in hand and so do not cope as well with over- arousal. Highly skilled individuals have the skill well practiced and so do not require such high levels of concentration meaning they can deal better with the arousal level.

 Personality: Extroverts perform better in high-pressure, high arousal situations. Introverts tend to do better in a state of low arousal.  Anxiety  'A negative reaction of a performer to stress, often leading to over arousal'  'An emotional state, similar to fear, associated with arousal and accompanied by feelings of nervousness and apprehension'

 'A stimulus resulting in arousal or a response to a specific situation’  Arousal - 'A state of readiness to perform that helps motivate individuals'

 Stressors - This is the situation that causes the stressful response. For example, competition; frustration; injury; conflict  Stress response - This is the way in which we cope with stress.

 General Adaptation Syndrome to explain this:  Alarm Reaction  Fight or flight causing an adrenaline rush, rise in heart rate and increase in blood sugar level, ready for activity  Resistance  The body adapts to manage the stressful situation until it is overcome or passes  Exhaustion  The body can only cope with this state for a certain period (may be very short-term, or may be months or years, dependant on situation). If the stressful situation is not rectified the body begins to fail to cope

 Stress Experience  As well as the physiological symptoms the athlete will also experience psychological symptoms. These include:  Indecisiveness  Decreased concentration  Worry  Decreased attention span  This can then cause a vicious circle resulting in increased levels of stress, which is called the stress spiral.

 State anxiety  The athletes emotional state at any given time - variable from situation to situation  Trait anxiety  An athletes disposition to interpreting a situation as threatening and responding with an increase in state anxiety
