<![CDATA[The background of this study is the frequent occurrence of anxiety among athletes when facing competition, particularly in body-contact sports. One of the factors that can trigger competitive anxiety is fear of negative evaluation. This study aimed to examine the relationship between fear of negative evaluation and competitive anxiety among Tarung Derajat athletes. The research used a quantitative approach with a correlational method with 100 Tarung Derajat athletes in Banda Aceh, selected through a total sampling technique. The research instruments consisted of a fear of negative evaluation scale and a competitive anxiety scale, both of which had been tested for validity and reliability. Data analysis procedures used descriptive statistics tests, prerequisite tests, and hypothesis tests. The results showed a significant positive relationship between fear of negative evaluation and competitive anxiety among Tarung Derajat athletes in Banda Aceh. The correlation coefficient value was r = 0.724 with a significance value of p < 0.001; it is indicated that the higher the level of fear of negative evaluation an athlete possesses, the higher the level of competitive anxiety experienced. These findings confirmed that the research hypothesis is accepted. Abstrak Penelitian ini didasari oleh seringnya atlet mengalami kecemasan saat menghadapi pertandingan, terutama pada cabang olahraga body contact, dan salah satu faktor yang dapat memicu tingkat kecemasan bertanding adalah fear of negative evaluation. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara fear of negative evaluation dan kecemasan bertanding pada atlet tarung derajat. Penelitian menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan metode korelasional terhadap 100 atlet tarung derajat Banda Aceh yang dipilih melalui teknik total sampling. Instrumen penelitian terdiri dari skala fear of negative evaluation (FNE) dan skala kecemasan bertanding yang telah teruji validitas dan reliabilitasnya. Prosedur analisis data mencakup uji statistik deskriptif, uji prasyarat, serta uji hipotesis. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan positif yang signifikan antara fear of negative evaluation dengan kecemasan bertanding pada atlet tarung derajat di Banda Aceh. Nilai koefisien korelasi sebesar r = 0,724 dengan nilai signifikansi p < 0,001 menunjukkan bahwa semakin tinggi tingkat Fear of negative evaluation yang dimiliki atlet, semakin tinggi pula tingkat kecemasan bertanding yang dialami. Temuan ini membuktikan bahwa hipotesis penelitian diterima.]]>
