The different resources that I have found for this assignment are mainly journal articles
and research papers. This is useful because has helped me to get a wide range of idea about the
relationship between tension or anxiety and the underperformance of players in the games or the
sports. The journal articles or the pdfs are very useful as they show the topic backed by the
different arguments and the counter-arguments that have been put forward by the different
scholars. These sources are talent from the range of 2016 till the present day, which shows that
all the different findings are updated and there is no such backdated information that is available.
It is for this reason that these sources have been useful.
I have read the sources like the pdfs and the online articles that are available on anxiety
among players and their relationship with their underperformance in sports. One of the sources
that have been read in detail is the article named When You Watch Your Team Fall Apart –
Coaches' and Sports Psychologists' Perceptions on Causes of Collective Sports Team
Collapse.

This article has been found from Google scholar and it is a properly updated peer-reviewed
and authentic journal.Authors in this article are talking about the collective team collapse that
takes place when there is a sudden irreversible underperform mace seen among the players. In
such cases, they are not able to get back to their original strength that is from the position from
where they started. It is evident from this article that the underperformance in the games or
sports takes place because of different reasons and one among them being the anxiety among the
players (Wergin, Vanessa, et al., p-2115)
A relativist ontology and a constructivist epistemology were used to understand the
connection of the psychology of the coaches and also the players on one hand and the collective
collapsing of the team in the other. Abductive reasoning was used as a method of data analysis as
it favors the practical actions that have taken place over the different theoretical aspects. The age
of the Participants' ranged around, from 25 to 55 for coaches (M = 34.14, SD = 10.80) and from
38 to 55 for sport psychologists (M = 45.50, SD = 8.35). All participants were coaching either the
German national team of their sport or a team playing in between first and fourth divisions in
Germany. This is evident from the article that often the presuppose importance of the game
creates a huge pressure and also gives rise to a kind of anxiety among the players. They are often
