Stress and performance: an application of Gray's three-factor arousal theory to basketball free-throw shooting.

abstract：:Children and adolescents mature at different rates such that individuals competing in the same competition may differ in physical and biological maturity despite being of similar chronological age. Whether or not differences translate into on-field performance in competition is relatively unknown. This study investiga...
