Answer 1

The Correct Option is B

Concept: Various psychological assessment tools are used in sports psychology to evaluate athletes' mental skills, coping abilities, and performance strategies.
• Troutwine Athlete Profile is associated with Bob Troutwine.
• Psychological Skill Inventory was developed by Mahoney et al.
• Athletic Coping Skills Inventory is associated with Smith et al.
• Test of Performance Strategies is associated with Thomas et al.

Step 1: Match each inventory or test with its developer.
\[ \begin{aligned} \text{Troutwine Athlete Profile} &\rightarrow \text{Bob Trout wine} \text{Psychological Skill Inventory} &\rightarrow \text{Mahoney etal} \text{Athletic Coping Skills Inventory} &\rightarrow \text{Smith et-al} \text{Test of Performance Strategies} &\rightarrow \text{Thomas et-al} \end{aligned} \]

Step 2: Write the correct matching sequence.
Thus, the correct matching is: \[ A-II,\ B-I,\ C-IV,\ D-III \] Hence, the correct answer is: \[ \boxed{(B)\ A\text{-}II,\ B\text{-}I,\ C\text{-}IV,\ D\text{-}III} \]
