I am searching for a questionnare, that measures an individual's (e.g. athlete in team sports) perception of the emotional state AND/OR anxiety of another person (e.g. teammates anxiety).
I want to examine if a teammember's anxiety (state) has an influence on own anxiety (>> examinging emotion/anxiety contagion in team sports). Therefore, I need a questionnaire that measures the perception and evaluation of the participating individual of his/her teammembers emotional state.
Maybe someone knows a suitable and, ideally, German questionnaire?
Thank you very much in advance! :-)
Kind regards,
Lissy
That's not an easy question dear Lissy.
I assume that you already know the German questionnaire "Wettkampf-Angst-Inventar (WAI)" by Ehrlenspiel, Brand & Graf (2009): https://www.bisp-sportpsychologie.de/SpoPsy/DE/Diagnostikportal/Angst/Sportlerfrageboegen/sportlerfrageboegen_node.html and https://www.bisp-surf.de/Record/PU200907003359/Details#tabnav
The content of the WAI questionnaire is related to a corresponding English-language development, the "Competitive Anxiety Inventory (CSAI-2)" by Martens et al. (1990), which is often used in sport studies. See, for example:

Maybe it helps a bit.

Thanks for your quick responses and recommendations!
Martin Hofmeister Yes, I know the WAI and I can imagine using it, but only to measure individual anxiety, which might be cuased by the perception of other anxiety!
Michael Uebel Empathy is a good point, I will check the literature!
