This study was designed to examine the role of trait anxiety and gender in responses to overtraining in men (n = 100) and women (n = 59) college swimmers. Trait anxiety (STAI) was assessed at baseline, while measures of mood states (POMS), training volume, muscle soreness, perception of effort (RPE), and hours slept were collected at baseline (September), during overtraining (January), and following tapering (February). Data were analyzed using two statistical methods: (1) A 2 (gender) x 3 (conditions) repeated measures ANOVA with trait anxiety included as a covariate and (2) two-level hierarchical linear models (HLM) with trait anxiety and gender as predictor variables. Trait anxiety for men and women were compared at baseline using one-way ANOVA, and women scored significantly higher (p < .002). Mood disturbance, RPE, and muscle soreness increased (p < .05) during overtraining and improved (p < .05) during tapering, while hours slept increased (p < .001) during tapering. Less desirable mood states at baseline (p < .05) were reported by swimmers with higher trait anxiety, but mood disturbance during overtraining was greater (p < .05) for swimmers with lower trait anxiety. Training volume increased (p < .05) during overtraining and decreased (p < .05) during tapering for men and women, but training volume for men was lower at baseline and higher at overtraining. Women tended (p > .05) to report less desirable mood states at baseline, but men and women were found to have similar mood state responses to overtraining and tapering. During tapering women reported an increase (p < .05) in tension whereas men reported no change, and the decrease in fatigue was greater (p < .005) for women. While HLM detected more significant effects, ANOVA found some effects not detected by HLM. It is concluded that: (1) swimmers with high trait anxiety were less vulnerable to mood disturbance than swimmers with low trait anxiety; (2) men and women college swimmers respond to overtraining and tapering in a similar manner; and (3) the finding of women reporting higher trait anxiety compared to men in the general population can be extended to this sample of college swimmers.Subjects--Topical Terms:
