About

Introduction. Faced with the risk of injury relapse, and as athletes train and compete, they generate anxiety that limits their ability to push themselves to the maximum, influencing their performance.

Objectives. i) To identify the state and trait anxiety of non-professional athletes with previous hamstring injuries; ii) To evaluate the main prognostic factors of anxiety in these athletes; and iii) To analyze the best predictive model of anxiety in soccer players with previous hamstring injuries.

Material and method. Ambispective cross-sectional cohort study. 88 players will be recruited. The primary variable of the study will be anxiety (State-Trait Anxiety Inventory), with the number of recurrences of the study injury being the dependent variable. The secondary variables, estimated as modifying or confounding, will be the main sociodemographic variables (age, type of school/work activity), clinical (number of hamstring injuries, number of relapses of injury in the same location, duration of injury in weeks, date of last injury), sports (weekly training load, seasons competing, regular starting line-up) and anthropometric (weight).
