How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Success and failure in competitive activities are significant situations that affect the psychological state of athletes. The aim of the scientific research was to study the relationship between success and failure with the psychological states and behavior of biathlon athletes. The study involved 20 active biathlete athletes aged from 18 to 20 years, 10 boys and 10 girls, with their skill levels from the 1st category to masters of sports. The results were analyzed taking into account gender differences. The results of the study have revealed both gender differences and individual differences. The obtained data can be used as recommendations for coaches, athletes and sports psychologists.
