Research Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate psychophysiologically whether athletes were in a challenging state for difficult tasks under stress situations in sports competition.The uniqueness of this study comprehensively evaluates the three processes from athlete's situation, the cognitive aspect of challenge and threat, the emotional aspect of hedonic tone, and the physiological aspect mainly on cardiovascular response. Furthermore, the backgrounds of different cardiovascular response patterns closely related to cognitive and emotional processes were clarified from autonomic nervous system activities. Based on these three process patterns, we have prospected the effectiveness as a biofeedback indicator that can predict performance.
