Norms for the sport competition anxiety test (SCAT)

Abstract

The Sport Competition Anxiety Test (SCAT) is a useful consultation tool for sport psychologists. A shortcoming of its use is the lack of norms for sport codes not popular in North America, for example, rugby, cricket, field hockey and netball. In this investivation the SCAT was admnistered to 1799 athletes over a period of approximately 15 years. The data collected over this period have been used to produce norms for additional sport codes.
