Masters thesis, Universiti Sains Malaysia.
Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the individual psychophysiological markers for
optimum ten-pin bowling performance. A total of 32 participants aged from 15 to 26
years old (M = 17.58, SD = 2.575) of Pahang state ten-pin bowling player were
recruited. In this study, participants average experience in playing ten-pin bowling was
M = 5.57 (SD = 3.131). Participants is asked to play 15 games where the heart rate
will be measured, and they also need to answer few questionaires such as IZOF,
CSAI-2R and DVT. The psychophysiological markers measured in this study were
cognitive anxiety, somatic anxiety, self-confidence, concentration and heart rate.
Multiple Linear Regression was used to calculated the prediction of ten-pin bowling
performance (score) based on their arousal level, cognitive level, cognitive anxiety
level, somatic anxiety level, self-confidence level, concentrarion, average strike per
session, average spare per session and average miss per session. There were
statistically significant different in all the psychophysiological markers (p < 0.001 and
p < 0.05). The participants also had the highest heart rate when they missed their
throw.
