Abstract

This study aims at investigating the martial arts athletes’ influential factors that correspond with their professional performance when competing in the various matches. 320 martial arts athletes who are officially joined in the Indonesian National Sports Committee (Komite Olahraga Nasional Indonesia) Registry of Central Java Province, Indonesia supervision participated to be the respondents. Data were collected from the self-rated questionnaire of the martial arts athletes’ personal experience using a 5-Likert scale. Meanwhile, data analysis statistically applied for the descriptive and factor analysis tests. This quantitative method was used to measure the martial arts athletes’ influential factors that accommodated the variables of self-confidence, anxiety, motivation and concentration. The findings showed that the principal component analyses determined the presence of 4 variables with the Eigenvalue outreaching 1, positioning 36.8%, 22.4%, 21.7%, and 18.9%of the variances accordingly. This guided the factorial analysis that claimed 2 extracted components with a total of 59.27% of the variance. The component 1 was 36.84% and component 2 was 22.42%. The interpretation of these components is suitable with the pilot outputs undertaken from the martial arts athletes’ influential factors scale, in which the component 1 shows the positive affect items and the component 2 partially indicates the negative affect items.
