11. Bartholomew and colleagues (2011) assessed secretory immunoglobin A S-Iga among elite athletes.
1 point
Although athletes had a wide range of S-Iga levels, this was more strongly associated with ability rather than coaching style.
S-Iga was more strongly associated with how high-stakes the match was (e.g. was it practice, a regular season match, or a final match) than with coaching style.
Athletes who said they had controlling coaches secreted more S-Iga than those with more autonomy supportive coaches, indicative of greater stress.
