Mental resistance and quality of life in elite wrestlers

The aim of this study is to decipher the relationship between mental endurance and attitude towards quality of life in elite wrestlers. The working group consists of 208 wrestlers (Nman146= Nwoman 62) licensed by the Turkish Wrestling Federation. Among the information collection tools and techniques, the "survey technique" and the "simple random sampling" method were used. The data collection tool in the study consists of three parts. In the first part, the "Personal Information Form" prepared by the researcher, in the second part the "Mental Endurance in Sports Scale (SMDÖ), adapted to Turkish by Sheard and his fellows. (2009), in the third part the World Health Organization Quality of Life Short Form Turkish Scale (WHOQOL-BREF-TR), adapted to Turkish by Eser et al. (1999), was used. IBM SPSS 27 package program was used in the analysis of the data. T-Test and Anova analysis were used to determine whether the scales and their dimensions in the study differed according to demographic variables. As a result of anova analysis, Scheffe Test was performed from Post-Hoc analysis to determine which groups there was a significant difference between.Dec. Pearson correlation analysis was used to determine the relationship between mental endurance and sub-dimensions in sports and quality of life and sub-dimensions. Dec. A simple regression analysis was performed in order to determine the effect of endurance (independent variable) on quality of life (dependent variable) in sports. In addition, multiple regression analysis was performed in order to determine the effect of mental endurance sub-dimensions on quality of life in sports. A 95% confidence December (p<,05) was used for the significance level in the analysis of the data. As a result, in terms of mental endurance and attitude towards quality of life, as the level of mental endurance increases, the level of attitude towards quality of life also increases.
