The present paper is designed to be used as basic data for training Judo athletes and to be applied to promoting their athletic performance as it aims at investigating the relationship between anxiety of Judo players and their athletic performance as measured by their coaches during the actual competitions. From the outcomes of the study, following conclusion and suggestion could be made. First, since a significant correlation was found to exist between the level of Judo players' anxiety before matches and their athletic performance as judged in average by their field coaches at the site of competition, coaches should closely observe the psychological state of players before actual matches start and prepare strategies to enable them to perform at its maximum; Second, it was found that there was difference in anxiety about competition depending on gender and level of performance. The outcome of this study thus implies that coaches need to make individual approaches toward considering psychological characters of each player as well as demographic variables; Third, it became obvious that there was difference in athletic performance of Judo players by gender and level of their performance; and Fourth, there was significant correlation between anxiety about competition judged in average in this study and that characteristic of competition as measured by means of paper-based test. As the finding of this study reveals that the psychological state of players can be exactly judged by coaches at the competition site, coaches are requested to show close concern for players not only during practice but also during competition as well, together with timely strategy established to win the match.

본 연구는 실제 시합 현장에서 유도 선수들을 대상으로 지도자들이 측정한 경쟁상태 불안과 경기력의 관계를 규명 하겠다는 점에서 선수 지도에 기초 자료로 사용될 수 있고, 나아가 경기력 향상 같은 현장적용에 큰 도움이 될 수 있다고 생각된다. 연구결과를 통해 실제 현장에서 지도자가 판단한 선수의 심리상태가 매우 정확하다는 것을 보여주기 때문에 지도자는 연습상황은 물론 실제 시합상황에서 선수들에게 세심한 관심을 보여주고 적절한 전략을 제공할 필요가 있다.
