چکیده

هدف از پژوهش حاضر، ارزیابی اثربخشی برنامة تمرین مهارت‌های روان‌شناختی (پی‌.اس.‌تی) بر رشد استحکام ذهنی نوآموزان بدمینتون بود.  40 نوآموز مرد بدمینتون به روش جایگزینی تصادفی در دو گروه آزمایش (20نفر) و کنترل مداخله‌نما (20نفر) قرار گرفتند. ابزار مورد استفاده پرسش‌نامة استحکام ‏ذهنی ورزشی بود. تمامی شرکت کنندگان مهارت‌های  اختصاصی بدمینتون را در مدت زمان 24 جلسه در طول سه ماه فرا گرفتند. گروه آزمایش علاوه بر مهارت‌های  اختصاصی بدمینتون،  24 جلسة 20 دقیقه‌ای بستة اختصاصی پی.‌اس.‌تی و گروه کنترل مداخله‌نما نیز همین تعداد جلسات آموزش‌هایی در مورد اطلاعات عمومی در بدمینتون دریافت کردند. نتایج تحلیل کوواریانس چندمتغیره (مانکوا) نشان داد که نمرات تمامی مؤلفه‌های استحکام ذهنی گروه آزمایش نسبت به گروه کنترل مداخله‌نما به طور معناداری بالاتر بود که بیانگر اثربخشی برنامة پی.‌اس.‌تی بر رشد استحکام ذهنی نوآموزان مرد بدمینتون بود. این نتایج از اکتسابی بودن و قابلیت بهبود استحکام ذهنی از طریق مداخلات سازمان‌یافته راهبردهای روان‌شناختی حمایت کرد.

چکیده [English]

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of psychological skills training program on developing mental toughness among novice badminton players. Based on entrance criterias, 40 male novice badminton players were randomly assigned to experimental (20 participants) and placebo-control (20 participants) groups. Before and after interventions, participants completed sport mental toughness questionnaire (SMTQ). All participants take part in specific skills training badminton during 24 sessions over three months. Experimental group in addition to badminton learning received the specific package of psychological skills training but Placebo-control group was taught only general information about badminton. The results of MANCOVA showed that all components of SMTQ in experimental group were significantly higher than the placebo-control group, which indicates the effectiveness of PST on mental toughness development among male badminton novice players. These results supported the capability of developing mental toughness through systematical psychological skills training programs.
