Abstract

Introduction: Anxiety means threats and insecurity that its source is not clear. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) on Anxiety in Veterans and Disabled Athletes. Materials and Methods: This semi-experimental study was performed by two groups and pretest-posttest design. Twenty-four veterans and disabled who were the members of Board of Veterans and Disabled in Ahvaz city were selected by available sampling. First, all participants completed the Beck Anxiety and State-Competitive Anxiety questionnaire. Then, the participants were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. Experimental group received tDCS intervention for three consecutive days. After the last intervention session, all participants again completed the Beck Anxiety and State-Competitive Anxiety questionnaire. ANCOVA test was used to compare post-test of two groups. Results: The results showed that tDCS intervention had a significant effect on general Anxiety (p=0. 001) and state-competitive Anxiety (p=0. 001), also Anxiety level in experimental group was better than the sham group (p<0. 05). Conclusion: tDCS with Two-mA intensity during 3 sessions of 20 minutes can improve general Anxiety and state-competitive Anxiety in veterans and disabled Athletes. Therefore, it is recommended that coaches, those involved, and veteran and disabled Athletes use tDCS interventions on the days leading up to the competition to improve and control their Anxiety.
