Even so, an extensive review of the available literature leads to the\r\nconclusion that there is a lack of a precise and widely accepted definition of mental\r\ntoughness, while its conceptualization remains challenging. Therefore, based on the\r\nexisting literature concerning physiological toughness (Dienstbier, 1989), this study\r\nexamines through an innovative psychophysiological perspective how mental\r\ntoughness operates, and thus contributes to a better understanding of the concept of\r\nmental toughness.\r\nThe purpose of this study was to investigate athletes\u2019 (N = 18) and their respective\r\ncoach\u2019s perceptions and appraisals of the athletes\u2019 levels of mental toughness (MT) in\r\nelite soccer. For this purpose, the Sports Mental Toughness Questionnaire (SMTQ) was\r\nused to assess perceptions and appraisals of MT. In addition, the levels of the athletes\u2019\r\nHeart Rate Variability (widely used as an indicator of Autonomous Nervous System and\r\ntherefore physiological marker of stressors; see Task Force, 1996) were measured,\r\nbefore and during the pre-season preparation period. Existing literature suggests that,\r\nthe mental and physical demands of the preseason preparation period are relatively too\r\nhigh compared with the rest of the competitive season and this can explain the\r\nincreased numbers of injuries occurring during that period (Woods, 2002).\r\nOverall, results revealed significant associations between athletes\u2019 Heart Rate\r\nVariability and the three components of mental toughness (Control, Confidence and\r\nConstancy). Specifically, as appear from the Quick Recovery Tests, the Nocturnal\r\nMeasurements and coach\u2019s subjective opinion on athletes\u2019 levels of mental toughness,\r\ncoaches tend to perceive as more mentally tough the athletes who usually have a\r\n\u201csuitable, positive stress\u201d which keeps them \u201calert\u201d, in a \u201cconstant readiness\u201d and\r\n\u201calways ready for fight\u201d. From an applied perspective, this study suggests that sport\r\npsychologists and practitioners may identify a need to enrich an athlete\u2019s stress-coping\r\ntechniques, just by observing heart rate variability patterns and the modulation of\r\nautonomous nervous system.", "language": "", "element": "description", "qualifier": "abstract", "schema": "dc"}, {"key": "dc.description.provenance", "value": "Submitted using Plone Publishing form by Adamos Papantoniou (adpapant) on 2016-06-14 16:59:00.553981.
