The Survey of Flow Experience in Badminton Refereeing Abstract The purpose of this study was to compare the flow experiences between two levels of badminton officials (A and B) in games with varied challenging levels (high and mid). The participants were 40 officials (26 level-A and 14 level-B) respectively in charge of the tasks of umpire, service judge, and line judge in 2014 Asian Junior Badminton Championships. The average age of the participants was 50.55 years old (S.D.=10.65). Each participant was requested to complete the Chinese version of Flow State Scale after officiating a preliminary match (mid challenge) and a semi-final match (high challenge). Hence, flow experiences in four contexts, including “level A/high challenge”, “level A/mid challenge”, “level B/high challenge”, and “level B/mid challenge”, were compared. Data were analyzed conducting two-way ANOVA and one-way ANOVA. The main findings were as follows: 1. The group of “level A/high challenge” scored significantly higher on “total flow experience”, “concentration and feedback”, and “autotelic experience” than the other three groups, and differences between the other three groups were not significant. 2. Regarding “loss of self-consciousness”, “level A referees” scored significantly higher than “level B referees”, but no difference emerge between “high challenge” and “mid challenge” matches. 3. As to “transformation of time”, “level A referees” scored significantly higher than “level B referees”, as well as “high challenge” matches showed significantly higher score than “mid challenge” matches. The findings indicate that badminton officials could most likely experience flow state when their officiating skills and the matches’ competitive intensity are at the high level and both are in a good balance condition, which supports the essential postulation of flow theory. Keywords: intrinsic motivation, optimal experience, positive psychology
