Abstract

This study aims to analyze the relationship between anxiety levels and self-confidence on the performance of tennis referees in Central Java. This study uses a quantitative method with a correlational approach. The sample consisted of 30 tennis umpires from Central Java who were selected using the simple random sampling technique. Data collection for self-anxiety was conducted using the SCAT (Sport Competition Anxiety Test) instrument, while self-confidence was measured using the ASQ (Athlete Self-Confidence Questionnaire), and Tennis Umpire Performance. Data analysis techniques were performed thru Pearson correlation tests and simple linear regression. The results of this study indicate that anxiety (r = 0.076; p = 0.845) and self-confidence (r = 0.071; p = 0.818) do not have a significant relationship with referee performance. The regression analysis for anxiety (β = 0.058; p = 0.845) and self-confidence (β = 0.102; p = 0.818) also shows that anxiety and self-confidence do not have a significant relationship, with a coefficient of determination (R² = 0.006) indicating that the level of anxiety only contributes 0.6% to referee performance and (R² = 0.005) showing that self-confidence only explains 0.5% of the variation in referee performance. The ANOVA test results confirm that the regression model is not significant (F = 0.41; p = 0.845) for anxiety and (F = 0.056; P = 0.818) for self-confidence. Thus, it can be concluded that anxiety and self-confidence do not have a significant impact on the performance of tennis referees in Central Java.
