Abstract | The purpose of this study is to determine the influence of the athletesâ perception on their coachesâ behavior to their level of competitive anxiety and burnout as well as the relationship of the identified moderating variables such as: athletesâ age, gender, type of sport, level of participation, length of playing experience, and their coachesâ age, gender, civil status and length of coaching experience relate to the three main variables. The study used Coaching Behavior Questionnaire (CBQ) developed by Scott B. Martin (2003) to measure coaching behavior, while the Sport Competitive Anxiety Test (SCAT) developed by Rainer Martens (1977) to evaluate the athletesâ sport competitive anxiety, and the Athlete Burnout Questionnaire (ABQ) modified by Raedeke and Smith (2008) to assess the athletesâ burnout. The respondents were the 158 college athletes and 15 coaches from the State Universities in Region X, Philippines. Furthermore, Chi-square and Pearson r were used in analyzing the data through the Statistical Package for Social Science v.20. The results then show no significant relationship between coaching behavior and the athletesâ competitive anxiety and burnout. However, a strong positive relationship is established between the athletesâ length of playing experience and coaching behavior; and between coachesâ age and length of coaching with coaching behavior. Also, a strong relationship is observed between the coachesâ civil status and the athletesâ level of burnout. The findings suggest that coaches undergo trainings and seminar-workshops on effective coaching to develop a more positive and efficient coaching behavior. Coaches may also help their athletes learn to recognize anxiety and develop anxiety management skills to cope with it during competition, thus avoiding the possibility of burnout and being able to improve performance and coach-athlete relationship.
