Comparison of Sports Anxiety, Sports Injury Anxiety, and Knowledge Levels Regarding Factors Causing Sports Injury in Individuals Who Regularly Engage in Conditioning Work With and Without a History of Injury

Turkey (Türkiye)114 participantsStarted 2026-01-01

Plain-language summary

Anxiety, or anxiety disorder, is a common occurrence today. Studies have proven that sports have a high potential for stress and anxiety. Among the reasons for its prevalence in athletes are performance pressure, public scrutiny, dissatisfaction with athletic careers, injuries, and harassment and abuse in sports. Anxiety can negatively impact performance and competition results. However, the relationship between anxiety and performance has not been fully established. Studies on the relationship between anxiety and injury in athletes are also increasing. However, studies examining injury history and sports anxiety levels in individuals who regularly perform conditioning exercises are lacking. Based on our literature review, our study will ask individuals who regularly engage in conditioning training about their injury history. Participants will be divided into two groups: those with and those without injuries. The two groups will be compared in terms of their sports anxiety and fear of injury, and their knowledge of the factors that contribute to injuries in sports will be measured.

Questions worth asking your doctor

Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.

1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator

The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.

1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?

A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
