“…3.1 Theme 1: Socio-ethical Misconceptions 3.1.1 Conception of health Some Muslim women believe that health is defined by the absence of disease and the ability to perform duties towards their families, while others believe that they are healthy if they have no signs and symptoms of disease, leading to the belief that they are in excellent health if they do not need to see a doctor (Shirazi et al, 2013;Islam et al, 2017). This misconception of the health concept should be corrected because according to the WHO, health is not only the absence of disease or infirmity but also a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being (WHO, 1948;Marwat et al, 2014). Health is the quality of life that allows an individual to live fully and serve at their best (Marwat et al, 2014).…”

“…Anxiety can be defined as a state of annoying waiting mixed with a lack of security arising from the external environment or any situation perceived by the individual interpreted as a warning of an expected danger (4). Anxiety has two widespread types, namely state anxiety and trait anxiety, and each type has its own psychological repercussions and symptoms, which, if they appear, affect the performance of players directly (5). The state anxiety is associated with the situation itself, which is cognitive, physical anxiety associated with physical symptoms, such as muscle tension, shortness of breath, and rapid heartbeat, and cognitive symptoms, such as emotional distress that the athlete perceives for upcoming competition events (4).…”
