Abstract

To compete successfully, one must be able to act aggressively in controlled, non destructive, goal-oriented ways. Conflicts affecting aggressive behavior ten to interfere with competitive success. Depression, fear of success/ competive inhibition, and guilt are among the psychopathologic entities that affect the athletes performance, whether he be a professional athlete or an amateur to whom athletic competition is a source of recreation and pleasure. It is important that all of those involved in the training and care of athletes be aware of emotional conditions that lead to injuries, both physical and psychologic, as well as those conditions that interfere with performance and effectiveness.
