Analysis of the effect of psychological atmosphere creation on anxiety patients in physical education classroom teaching

Abstract

Background

Anxiety disorder is a common mental disease, which is characterized by tremors, palpitation, sweating, and other symptoms, and has become one of the main psychological problems of college students. The psychological atmosphere is a relatively stable emotional state, which can promote emotional communication and trigger psychological resonance. Through the creation of a good psychological atmosphere in physical education classroom teaching, this paper explores its intervention effect on anxiety patients.

Subjects and Methods

In a domestic university, 900 college students of different grades were selected by random sampling, and the Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) was filled in anonymously. After statistical results, 126 patients with anxiety disorder were selected. Then they were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group, 68 in each group. The students in the observation group studied in the PE class with a positive psychological atmosphere, while the students in the control group studied in the regular PE class. After one semester of study, the anxiety level was assessed again by the SAS scale.

Results

Table 1 shows the statistical results of SAS scores of the two groups before and after physical education classroom teaching. It can be found that after the experiment, the anxiety score of the students in the observation group decreased significantly and was lower than that of the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P < 0.05).Table 1.
