The findings indicated that weighing mental indexes during player selection, controlling the degree of striving, preventing excessively “striving”, guiding player’s self-awareness, treating sports anxiety differentially, and positive recognition evaluation strategies, can reduce the occurrence of the sign of “choking”.
