PIRES, D. A.; LIMA, P. A. e PENNA, E. M. Resilience in Mixed Martial Arts Athletes: relationship between stressors and psychological protection factors. CPD [online]. 2019, vol.19, n.2, pp.243-255. Epub 13-Jul-2020. ISSN 1989-5879.
Dealing with situations imposed in training and competitions and knowing how to administer them emotionally is essential for athletes to present high performance. Studies point that resilient athletes have the ability to face and interpret adverse situations positively. This research aims to investigate the dynamics of the resilience process in professional athletes of MMA. The sample of this study consisted of 10 athletes from Brazil. The instrument used was a semi-structured interview script, based on the theory of psychological resilience and optimal sports performance. The results of this study showed that the resilience process can occur when the internal factors of the individual interact with external factors (such as the environment and the social relations experienced by the athletes), producing favorable responses even in the stressful situations of the modality.
