142 male Tae Kwon-do competitors completed the Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 about 1 hr. before competition. Multivariate analysis of variance showed that the players who won reported lower cognitive and somatic anxiety and higher self-confidence than those who lost. Discriminant function analysis indicated that 89 (62.68%) participants could be correctly classified as winners or losers on the basis of their precompetition Competitive State Anxiety Inventory-2 scores. The findings concur with previous research in karate.
