The current study examined differences in heart rate (HR) variability (HRV) across student-athlete eligibility classifications within a men's soccer team. The study also aimed to identify any differences in HRV while competing at home or away. Data collection covered an entire collegiate season, commencing in the preseason and concluding upon elimination from the NCAA Soccer tournament. Comparisons of HR and HRV, paired with self-reported subjective measures, were documented between student-athlete eligibility classifications, home versus away games, and based on soccer position (forward, midfielder, defender, goalkeeper). HR and HRV were similar based on student-athlete eligibility. Heart rate exhibited a small, but statistically significant decrease (β = -1.7 bpm (95% CI: -2.9, 0.57), = 0.003) for the away games relative to home. HRV showed a statistically significant increase in the away game setting (β = 2.1 (95% CI: 0.78, 3.38), = 0.002). No difference in HRV was observed across eligibility classification. This lack of difference may be attributed to a different perception of stress amongst male athletes. Athletes also exhibited a reduced HRV at home, likely as an indication of their readiness to compete paired with an increased self-confidence, given there was no difference in any subjective measures of mood or stress or between games played away or at home.
本研究调查了男子足球队中不同学生运动员资格分类的心率变异性（HRV）差异。该研究还旨在确定在主场或客场比赛时HRV的任何差异。数据收集涵盖了整个大学赛季，从季前赛开始，到被淘汰出美国大学体育协会（NCAA）足球锦标赛结束。在学生运动员资格分类、主场与客场比赛之间，并根据足球位置（前锋、中场、后卫、守门员），记录了心率（HR）和HRV的比较以及自我报告的主观测量数据。基于学生运动员资格，HR和HRV相似。相对于主场比赛，客场比赛时心率出现了小幅度但具有统计学意义的下降（β = -1.7次/分钟（95%置信区间：-2.9，0.57），P = 0.003）。HRV在客场比赛环境中显示出具有统计学意义的增加（β = 2.1（95%置信区间：0.78，3.38），P = 0.002）。在资格分类之间未观察到HRV的差异。这种差异的缺乏可能归因于男性运动员对压力的不同认知。运动员在主场时的HRV也有所降低，这可能表明他们准备好比赛且自信心增强，因为在情绪或压力的任何主观测量方面，以及在客场或主场比赛之间均无差异。
