PONCE-CARBAJAL, N et al. The impact of the social context on resistant personality in university athletes from Mexico. CPD [online]. 2020, vol.20, n.2, pp.201-217.  Epub July 13, 2020. ISSN 1989-5879.

The objectives of this study were to identify the social context factors that most influence the Resistant Personality (RP), and also find the social context factors that best relate to the control of the commitment and challenge of the resistant personality. The participants were 174 university athletes from 16 different sports, who competed in the 2017 National Universiade, in Monterrey, Nuevo León (Mexico). The instruments used are two: the questionnaire on the Perception of Factors related to Excellence in Sport (PFES) and the questionnaire of Resistant Personality in Central American and Caribbean athletes (RPCC). The methodology that was used was a cross-sectional, correlational, causal, non-experimental design. The results showed that the social context factor with the greatest influence on the total resistant personality is the nature of the training (β = 3.21; p <.01) and the characteristics of the training (β = 3.80; p <.01), in addition to that both predict the control factors (β = 3.83, β = 3.81; p <.01) and commitment (β = 3.89, β = 3.67; p <.01) In the correlations it was found that the nature of the training has a relationship with the challenge r = .415 ** with the commitment with a value of r = .323 ** and the control with the characteristics of the training with a value of r = 288 ** and the nature of the training in a global way correlated with the Total PR with a value of r = 382 **. Therefore, it is concluded that the coach, the administrative managers and the multidisciplinary team impact sports development and promote commitment and a taste for challenges.
