Resumo: | The study of factors influencing competitive anxiety, according to a multidimensional perspective and supported by valid instruments, is scarce among Brazilian athletes of different sports. The present study aims to: i) investigate the theoretical relationship between the different dimensions of the multidimensional theory of anxiety (i.e., cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety and self-confidence); and ii) investigate the effects of gender, type of sport (individual or collective) and competitive experience levels on cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety and self-confidence. A total of 303 athletes (233 males and 70 females), from different sports, aged between 18 and 40 years (M =24.22, SD = 5.07) completed a shortened version of CSAI-2 (i.e., CSAI-2R), about one hour before the start of competitions. Results revealed significant correlations between cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety and self-confidence dimensions, in accordance with the assumptions of the multidimensional theory. Additionally, comparative analyses indicated that female athletes and athletes from collective sports showed higher levels of cognitive anxiety, while male athletes and athletes with high competitive experience reported higher levels of self-confidence. These results were discussed taking into account the theoretical and practical implications of these findings for planning interventions of sport psychology in Brazil with athletes of different contexts. |

Dessa forma, o presente estudo tem como objetivos: i) confirmar a proposta teórica de que há uma relação entre as dimensões constituintes da teoria multidimensional (i.e., ansiedade cognitiva, ansiedade somática e autoconfiança) e ii) verificar os efeitos do sexo, tipo de esporte (individual ou coletivo) e experiência competitiva nos níveis de ansiedade cognitiva, ansiedade somática e autoconfiança.Trezentos e três atletas (233 do sexo masculino e 70 do sexo feminino), de diferentes modalidades desportivas, com idades compreendidas entre os 18 e 40 anos (M = 24,22; DP = 5,07) preencheram uma versão reduzida do CSAI-2 (i.e., CSAI-2R), aproximadamente, uma hora antes do início das competições.Os resultados revelaram correlações significativas entre as dimensões de ansiedade cognitiva, ansiedade somática e autoconfiança de acordo com os pressupostos teóricos da teoria multidimensional. Adicionalmente, as análises comparativas indicaram que os atletas do sexo feminino e de esportes coletivos evidenciaram níveis superiores de ansiedade cognitiva, enquanto os atletas masculinos e com alta experiência competitiva reportaram maiores níveis de autoconfiança. Estes resultados foram discutidos, tendo em conta as implicações teóricas e práticas destas evidências para o planejamento de intervenções da psicologia do esporte no Brasil, em atletas de diferentes contextos.Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina.
