The goal is to look at the link between a serotonin transporter gene polymorphism and state-trait anxiety, as well as to see if 5-HTTLPR may be utilised as an objective predictor of mental state in Japanese ballet dancers under stress. There were 25 elite student ballet (Elite) dancers with future promise and 19 professional ballet (Pro) dancers that took part in the competition. On a regular day and one of the stressful days, we gave the subjects two psychological questionnaires (STAI: State-Trait Anxiety Inventory; BRUMS: Brunel Mood Scale). The 5-HTTLPR genotype was found in 64.7 percent of the dancers, 35.3 percent in the s/l group, and 0 percent in the l/l group. Only the s/s and s/l genotypes had significant differences in STAI scores before competition. Elite dancers’ Trait-Anxiety scores were substantially higher than those of Pro dancers in this study (P0.028). The primary impacts of genotypes on BRUMS scores (P0.035) and Pro/Elite groups (P0.002) were substantial; the 5-HTTLPR played a role in the backdrop of state-trait anxiety, and psychological test scores were influenced heavily by occupational characteristics. By looking at the Trait-Anxiety in Elite, we may forecast the status of BRUMS before the tournament. Dance level (Elite vs. Pro) appears to have a considerably more significant impact on dancer mental health than 5-HTTLPR genotype. The relationship between Trait-Anxiety scores on a regular basis and BRUMS scores under stress was also investigated. Our findings show that Elite dancers who have a high Trait-Anxiety on a regular basis are more likely to feel nervous, angry, confused, enraged, and tired on competition day.
