Journal Title: GATR Journal of Management and Marketing Review - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 4

Abstract

Objective – This study examines the relationship between perceived stress, athletic burnout and leisure amongst badminton players. Methodology/Technique – The research subjects were all first national ranking tournament badminton players in 2012. The study uses convenience sampling to conduct a questionnaire survey. 350 questionnaires were distributed, with 288 valid questionnaires being returned (male 195, female 93). The rate of effectiveness was 82%. All of the data collected was analyzed using descriptive statistic and hierarchical regression analysis. Findings – The results show that badminton players between the ages of 19 and 21 experience higher cognitive stress. Further, badminton players who are involved in competitions at a higher level and whom have been training for a longer period of time, experience a higher athletic burnout. This means that badminton players who have higher perceived pressure will experience higher levels of burnout. Novelty – The study highlights that badminton players who participate in leisure-based activities are able to effectively adjust their perception of pressure to a “reduced sense of accomplishment" which has an effect on athletic burnout. Additionally, the study results give rise to variety of proposed solutions or suggestions for dealing with burnout or stress.
