Analysis of perceived stress, resilience and self-esteem in professional and youth football players (under-20) working in the city of Rio de Janeiro
Abstract
Football is a sport that thousands of young people seek to change the conditions of their lives and their families. The football environment is extremely competitive and every day it is being updated and perfected to seek the best and most complete athletes, whether physically, technically, or psychologically. Thus, the aim of this study was to analyze perceived stress, resilience, and self-esteem in professional and youth football players. 20 athletes from each category of a football club in Rio de Janeiro with a mean age of 24.25 ±4.52 years for the professional category and 18.55 ±0.69 years for the youth category were analyzed. The instruments used for evaluation were “Perceived Stress Scale” (PSS-14), “Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale” (CD- RISC) and “Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale” (RSES). The results found demonstrate that professional athletes have a moderate stress level of 25.8 ±6.42, mean resilience of 80.15±15.6 and self-esteem 35.15 ±3.88. The base category presented scores of perceived stress, resilience, and self-esteem, 25.15 ±5.82, 79.35 ±10.17 and 31 ±3.06, respectively. The study showed a positive correlation (p<0.05) between self-esteem and resilience (rho=0.424; p=0.006). No correlation was found between stress and resilience or stress and self-esteem. It can be concluded that athletes professionals who have higher levels of self-esteem tend to have a higher level of resilience.
