Fear of failure and anxiety in sport

Music performance anxiety and occupational stress amongst opera chorus artists and their relationship with state and trait anxiety and perfectionism

Becsült adatok szerint az emberek 80%-a tapasztal szorongást, amikor a figyelem középpontjába kerül (Plaut, 1990), azonban jelentős különbségek vannak a következményekben.…”
