Previous studies have indicated that athletes' anti-doping knowledge is inadequate. Athletes' willingness to learn about anti-doping () may influence their anti-doping knowledge, but the actual situation is unclear. This study aimed to determine the relationship between athletes' about anti-doping and their objective measurement knowledge and explore directions for educational interventions. The eligible participants were 971 male and 802 female university athletes. We used the ALPHA test (12 questions/four choices; passing index: ≥10 points/80% correct answer rate) to assess objective anti-doping knowledge. The question was, "Would you like to learn more about anti-doping?" Responses were given on a 4-point scale ranging from 1: strongly disagree to 4: strongly agree. An ANCOVA was conducted with four levels of as the independent variable and ALPHA correct answer rate as the dependent variable, adjusting for confounding factors (years of athletic experience and anti-doping education experience). The percentage of athletes (%) and each ALPHA correct answer rate (%) by the level of was 1: strongly disagree, = 1.64%, 61.78%; 2: somewhat disagree, = 13.14%, 62.38%; 3: somewhat agree, = 62.94%, 64.08%; 4: strongly agree, = 22.28%, 67.11%. The ALPHA correct answer rates showed significant differences in the main effect by the level of [ = 2.873, < 0.05, η = 0.01], although the effect size was small, and multiple comparisons showed no significant differences between the levels. The results indicated that the ALPHA correct answer rate did not reach 80% even for the "strongly agree" level of , suggesting that information on anti-doping may be inadequate. The need to provide sufficient educational content to improve knowledge was evident.
以往研究表明运动员的反兴奋剂知识不足。运动员了解反兴奋剂（相关内容）的意愿可能会影响他们的反兴奋剂知识，但实际情况尚不清楚。本研究旨在确定运动员对反兴奋剂的（某种态度）与他们客观测量知识之间的关系，并探索教育干预的方向。符合条件的参与者为971名男性和802名女性大学生运动员。我们使用ALPHA测试（12个问题/四个选项；及格指数：≥10分/80%正确答案率）来评估客观反兴奋剂知识。问题是：“你想更多地了解反兴奋剂吗？”回答采用4级量表，从1：强烈反对到4：强烈同意。以（某种态度）的四个等级作为自变量，ALPHA正确答案率作为因变量进行协方差分析，并对混杂因素（运动年限和反兴奋剂教育经历）进行调整。按（某种态度）等级划分的运动员百分比（%）和每个ALPHA正确答案率（%）分别为：1：强烈反对，=1.64%，61.78%；2：有点不同意，=13.14%，62.38%；3：有点同意，=62.94%，64.08%；4：强烈同意，=22.28%，67.11%。按（某种态度）等级划分的ALPHA正确答案率在主效应上显示出显著差异[=2.873，<0.05，η=0.01]，尽管效应量较小，多重比较显示各等级之间无显著差异。结果表明，即使对于（某种态度）的“强烈同意”等级，ALPHA正确答案率也未达到80%，这表明反兴奋剂信息可能不足。显然需要提供足够的教育内容来提高知识水平。
