Influence Mechanism of Competition Stress on College Athletes’ Performance

Abstract

Combined with previous research on the stressors of college students and athletes, this paper analyzes the collective stressors of college athletes. In the current environment, we believe that in addition to academic pressure, life pressure, and employment pressure, college athletes also have competition pressure. Since most of these special groups are professional athletes, they still maintain the ability to participate in competitive competitions at the university level, so they are the main force in promoting the development of competitive sports. In this group, the stressors they feel cannot be ignored, and these stressors will affect every aspect of their lives. Compared with professional athletes, there are fewer college athletes, so there are fewer studies on this aspect. Taking previous research as a reference, we explored the cross-influence relationship between competition stressors and other stressors in college athletes and expounded the impact mechanism of competition stress on other stressors. In future research, how to reduce the competition pressure of college athletes can start from the reasons of the athletes themselves and the training plan of the coaches.
