Introduction When an athlete sustains an injury while playing the sport that they love, it can have a debilitating effect. Depending on the injury, not only can they be forced to miss a significant amount of playing time (which can affect their livelihood) while they go through rehab, they also lose a huge piece of themselves. The physical part of an injury is only half the battle athletes have to face. Thoughts, feelings and spirit all contribute to sport performance, and are important parts of every athlete (Brehm, 2008). Injuries cause extreme pain, limit movements and depending on the severity, can require a large amount of time for rehab.

Three aspects of burnout are emotional exhaustion, negative, cynical attitudes and feelings about one’s clients and the tendency to evaluate oneself negatively with regards to one’s work with clients. Consequences of burnout can have serious consequences to staff, patients and the healthcare institutions involved. The studies conducted led to the development of the Maslach Burnnout Inventory
I feel if we were to take away all their independence, take away their choice, it could lead to the service users having behaviour problems and also in the long term they will lose ability to do skills that they once were very capable of doing. 2. (1.2) Analyse reasons why individuals may need support to maintain, regain or develop skills for everyday life The reason why people would need support to maintain, regain or develop skills for everyday life can be very different. People could have different health problems that affect their skills for everyday life. A few examples on what could have an effect are: * Physical health: feeling unwell with a fever leads to tiredness and can make you unable to do usual daily activities.
The environment in an ICU is extremely chaotic and stressful; prolonged exposure to ICUs make health care professional susceptible to burnout. In addition high-pressure environment, dysfunction within an organisation has been correlated with burnout amongst employees (Leary et al., 2013); dysfunction was defined as the use of avoidance and coercion tactics by supervisors. Leadership styles that are forceful and lacks clear direction create confusion, stagnation and stifle creativity. n this way dysfunctional leadership may cause the perception of lack of productivity, desensitisation and exhaustion or
The three main environmental conditions that affect athletes in a big way are altitude, time change, and temperature. Each condition will affect all athletes in different ways and can cause minor and major issues. Altitude is the reduced air resistance and the force of gravity is reduced. Some of the immediate effects include nausea, headache, shortness of breath, and many other symptoms. Speaking from experience, I used to run cross country in high school, and I would always have a difficult adjusting to the altitude in western South Dakota as opposed to eastern South Dakota.
There are a lot of symptoms to Fibromyalgia and Multiple Sclerosis one that can affect a person’s life, his/her family, their social life, and even their job is called depression. Depression can lead to dramatic change in appetite causing a person to loose excess weight or gain excess weight. A person can fell hopeless, helplessness, worthlessness, and guilt causing a person to feel self-hate. All of these things can lead a person to thoughts of suicide or even worse cause someone to commit suicide (PubMed Health 1747) (PubMed Health 1463) (PubMed Health ). Fibromyalgia and Multiple Sclerosis both have pain associated with the diseases.
Our study posits emotional exhaustion as a mediating mechanism that influences job stress towards deviance. According to Hallberg and Sverke (2004), individuals’ psychological resources begin to deplete when exposed to sustained work stress and the inability to manage the sources of stress and the effects that follows. Friedman (2002 –update) further explained that this situation entails individuals to experience strain physically, psychologically and emotionally. Furthermore, extreme circumstances cause individuals to experience burnout (Thompson & Page, 1992), which is a psychological state shaped by sustained job stress, and one of its dimensions identified being emotional exhaustion (Maslach et al., 2001). Daily impacts of job stress effectively drains employee’s energy, which proceeds to emotional exhaustion (Houkes, Janseen, DeJonge & Bakker, 2003).
European Journal of Natural and Applied Sciences, 1(1), 1-9. ABSTRACT This paper discussed coping with pre-competitive anxiety in sports competition. The aim of the paper presentation is to provide explanation and reassurance to coaches, athletes and managers in the process of dealing with pre-competitive anxiety in sports competition. Five theories are used as the framework: the multidimensional theory which describes competitive sports anxiety in a model composed of two main subcomponent; cognitive and somatic anxiety, the general adaptation syndrome theory which describe the body’s short-term and long-term reaction to stress, the optimal arousal theory being one that predicts performance of athletes to be at best only if their level of arousal falls within the optimal functioning zone, and the Inverted ‘U’ Hypothesis theory which predicts a relationship between arousal to approximate an inverted ‘U’ shape. The concept of pre-competitive anxiety was defined as an unpleasant emotion which is characterized by vague but persistent feeling of apprehension and dread before an event.
