Table 1 Sport Competition and
Anxiety Test. Questions removed from final SCAT score - ”operating with
others is enjoyable”, ”I feel I am a good surgeon when I operate”,
”setting a goal is important when operating”, ”I like to perform
technically demanding procedures” and “operating in a team is more
enjoyable than operating alone”. The word “compete” was replaced with
“operate” to make the test applicable to surgeons.
