INTRODUCTION

Research on human behavior, dedicated to the study of the response to difficult circumstances, suggests that certain people are capable of overcoming adversity and transforming themselves positively in the midst of it (resilience), while others become increasingly vulnerable.

The resilience construct has been researched jointly in the rest of the world outside and inside sport by authors such as: Rutter (1992) who emphasized the active role of individuals in the face of what happens to them; Munist et al. (1998) who expressed that resilience considers, then, the need to reach the maximum potential of each individual in the interaction of personal characteristics with a facilitating environment, through a spiral process, where the stages of the life cycle are updated in the achievement of the following ones.

Psychological resilience has been treated as the capacity of a person or group to recover in the face of adversity in order to continue projecting the future (Ruiz-Barquín et al., 2012). These researchers, when studying cases of this construct, report that, in difficult circumstances or high-impact traumas in these people, latent resources that were unknown to them emerge.

This inherent human response capacity derives from the existence of a reserve of internal resources for adjustment and positive coping (Botero and Páez, 2020), whether innate or acquired.

Artuch (2020) and Vargas et al., (2020) highlight as part of the resilient response, the role played by social support networks as protective factors for the individual to feel able to handle adverse experiences.

According to the literature consulted, in the sports context the exact historical moment in which the concept of resilience was introduced has not yet been defined, but it is closely related to the conception of psychological resistance to training loads (Fernández et al., 2020).

Among the theoretical models of psychological resilience most widely addressed in the field of sports, those of Galli & Vealey (2008) and Fletcher & Sarkar (2012) stand out for their objectivity, coherence, consistency and intersubjectivity.

The characteristics of high-level athletes in the face of setbacks and the resilient profile as a variable for the development of high performance are essential aspects in the approach to psychological resilience, both in athletes and in sports teams (Morgan et al., 2019; Fernández et al., 2020).

Within the international research on psychological resilience in sport, the following stand out: Fonseca and Noce (2018); Gallego and Salinas (2019); Reche et al., (2020); Sarkar and Page (2020). In the study of psychological resilience levels related to anxiety, self-confidence and predisposition to achieve performance close to individual maximum levels, the contributions of Reigal et al., (2018); Tarazona et al., (2020) are appreciated.

Regarding the link between psychological resilience and recovery from stressors, the authors Codonhato et al., (2018); Álvarez et al., (2019) and Turner et al., (2020) are highlighted.

In addressing the responses of athletes as a consequence of having suffered a sports injury, the studies by Ríos et al., (2019); Catalá and Peñacoba (2020); León et al., (2020) and Ríos et al., (2021) stand out.

Other authors such as Aranzana et al., (2018); González Arratia (2018); Ortín et al., (2018); Reche et al., (2018); Trigueros et al., (2019) and Serrano et al., (2021), have addressed the relationship of psychological resilience with optimism and psychological wellbeing. Also noteworthy are the studies by Mohammadi (2019); McLean et al., (2020) and Aguinaga et al., (2021) on coping with adverse situations, as part of the resilient process. The research is based on the concept defined by Grotberg (2006), which states that psychological resilience is the "capacity of human beings to cope with life's adversities, overcome them and emerge strengthened or even transformed by them". It is essential for the understanding of the construct to include the notion of adversity, positive adaptation despite difficulties, and dynamic process as components in its conceptualization (Bryan et al., 2019).

In Cuba, from the literature consulted, it is considered that there have been insufficient studies on psychological resilience in sport; these cover some sports disciplines such as 800-meter track and field races (Cañizares et al., 2017, 2018 and 2020; Cadalso et al., 2020) and baseball (Fernández et al., 2020).

In observations of qualifying competitions and in interviews with the psychologist of the national table tennis team, prior to the present research (Huie, 2020), it was found that the athletes of this team have difficulties in adapting to the opponent's game system, handling adverse situations and using coping mechanisms in these situations.

This inconsistency impacts tactical decision making in less time, affects the duration of the game and results in pessimism, uncertainty, emotional instability, irrational thoughts and frustration in athletes.

Hence, the following problematic situation arises: The athletes of the national Table Tennis team present difficulties in their actions when facing adverse situations and there are no psychological training programs aimed at stimulating psychological resilience.

In this sense, not being resilient makes it difficult to make decisions in line with what the adequate management of the adverse situation merits.

Therefore, the scientific problem is established as follows: How to stimulate psychological resilience in athletes of the U-18 and U-21 categories of the national table tennis team? Hence, the objective of the research is defined as: to elaborate a proposal for a psychological training program to stimulate resilience in athletes of the U-18 and U-21 categories of the national table tennis team.

In the study of psychological resilience in Table Tennis athletes, it is essential to develop strategies to handle adverse situations typical of sports practice, given the psychological demands of this sport.

 

MATERIALS AND METHODS

The research predominantly used qualitative methodology with quantitative methods for data collection and qualitative methods for data interpretation. The study developed corresponds to a descriptive design.

Psychological resilience was defined as the main category.

For the Protective Factors dimension, the following indicators were established: personal satisfaction, equanimity, feeling good on one's own, self-confidence and perseverance. For the Coping Mechanisms dimension, the indicators defined were: task-focused stress coping styles and psychological resilience strategies. The indices, based on the established indicators are: High, Medium and Low level of development.

In the present research, methods from the theoretical level such as analysis-synthesis and from the empirical level, such as:

Interview with athletes, coaches and psychologist of the national team.

In addition to this analysis, a qualitative analysis was carried out through a content analysis. Tables and figures were used to represent the information.

The study took place at the High Performance Center located at the High Performance Athletes Training School (Esfaar), "Cerro Pelado", in the Table Tennis room. The population consisted of 12 athletes of the national table tennis team of the U-18 and U-21 categories, six female athletes and 6 male athletes. The sample is 100% of the population, it was chosen intentionally, taking into account the following selection criteria:

The main limitations were directed to the time availability of the athletes, taking into account that these athletes participate in competitions outside the country and also train in international training bases.

The research was conducted over a period of approximately one year and one month. It was developed in interdependent stages:

As a starting point for the research, the first phase was fundamentally directed to the request for informed consent. It continued with the review of the bibliography on psychological resilience and the preparation of the athlete, which made it possible to establish the main conceptual definitions. In addition, the research problem was defined, the objective was defined and the techniques foreseen in the initial verification were applied, where a diagnosis of the current state of psychological resilience in the athletes studied was made.

In this sense, the interview was applied to athletes, coaches and team psychologist; nonparticipant observation during the special stage of the preparatory period, the Resilience Scale and the Stress Coping Questionnaire.

In the second phase, a proposal for a psychological training program to stimulate resilience in the selected team was prepared, based on the initial diagnosis, and the proposal was submitted for evaluation by specialists.

 

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

From the techniques applied, the main findings of the research were the existence of the following adverse situations in the national table tennis team:

Among the main aspects that condition situations 2, 3 and 4 is distraction in the face of destabilizing elements (sound of the ball, referee's decision, scoreboard situation, public expressions, too many indications in the games, among others).

As personal factors existing in 100 % of the athletes, positive emotions, optimism, perseverance, the ability to make decisions, to solve problems, family and coach support stand out.

The present risk factors identified are: lack of self-confidence (83 %), anxiety (75 %), perspective of failure in stressful situations (50 %) and difficulties in impulse control (75 %).

Analysis of the resilience scale With respect to the results obtained from the Resilience Scale (Wagnild and Young, 1993), as can be seen in Figure 1 of the total number of athletes, it was obtained that 75 % have a medium level of resilience, given by a tendency to emotion-focused coping and avoidance, lack of manifestation of resilient behavior and lack of use of resilience strategies in specific adverse situations (Figure 1).

Fig. 1. - Levels of resilience in athletes (Resilience Scale).

This means that most athletes need to further develop personal psychological resilience factors such as: satisfaction, equanimity, feeling good about themselves, perseverance and self-confidence.

While the 25 % with a high level of resilience show high personal satisfaction, having a better understanding of life, greater equanimity, while taking calmly the experiences they have had in their sport, maintaining a positive attitude towards difficulties, as well as enjoying the feeling of well-being with themselves, greater capacity to believe in themselves and perseverance in the face of adversity, which implies more persistence in sports practice.

From the application of the Stress Coping Questionnaire (Sandín and Chorot, 2002), it was obtained that the coping style focused on emotions is the most used by 50 % of the athletes, which evidenced the need for training in task-focused coping. Emotions can be allies or enemies in the management of stressful situations; self-regulation of negative emotional states is essential to focus attention on the game.

In the analysis of the Coping Mechanisms dimension with respect to the Task-focused coping style indicator, figure 2 shows that 25 % of the sample frequently uses problem-solving focus (PS) and positive reappraisal (PR). 16.7 % almost always use FS, as well as support seeking (BA), while 50 % of the sample sometimes resort to FS. In addition, 50 % of the athletes sometimes resort to PR as well as BA, which means that the task-focused coping style is not the style most frequently used by them (Figure 2).

Elaboration of a proposal for a psychological training program to stimulate resilience.

The methodological procedure for the preparation of the proposal was as follows:

The objectives of the program, the practical requirements of the application, the phases, the rationale of the intervention, the logical methodological structure of the sessions and the program evaluation procedure were established.

The program was designed with a psychosocial approach, considering: objective and content of each session, number and duration of sessions, corresponding activities, frequency, means of work and evaluation based on the proposal developed by Cañizares (2004).

At this stage, specific techniques were selected to conform the sessions of the psychological training program (Dosil, 2004): educational talks, oral, written and body expression techniques, relaxation, cognitive-behavioral, thought control, visualization and video projection. In them, the psychological profile of each athlete, the characteristics of their game system (Barrero, 2018) and the real needs of the team were considered.

Other techniques used were: participant observation, evaluation and self-evaluation techniques, individual orientations, triangulation, document analysis and specialists' criteria. The proposal of the psychological training program for the stimulation of resilience was submitted to the criteria of 11 specialists of high scientific rigor, mastery of the subject matter addressed, experience and satisfactory results in high performance sports, which made it possible to evaluate the program in its design through the criteria of specialists (Fleitas et al., 2013).

The specialists studied the proposal and expressed their criteria through an unstructured interview on the goodness, deficiencies or inadequacies of the program, both in terms of the quality of its theoretical conception and its possible application in practice. The evaluation of the psychological training program, once elaborated, was based on three aspects: design, feasibility and usefulness, as shown below (Table 1).

Table 1. - Aspects evaluated by specialist criteria

These specialists evaluated the program as having a high level of adequacy in the evaluation of its design, feasibility and usefulness, which is a result of great significance for the research.

The main suggestions were: to structure the sessions taking into account the expected preparation and training period; to adapt the intervention techniques to Table Tennis and to plan exchanges with the athletes and coaches to inform about the results of the diagnosis and the achievements in the psychological training. These indications were considered and once the modifications were made, the sessions were structured as shown below:

Session 12. I can be resilient by overcoming the adverse situation.

Dimension: coping mechanisms.

Objective: to train in resilience strategies to cope with stress.

Content: resilient overcoming strategy.

Intervention techniques: self-affirmations.

Task: to train in the resilient overcoming strategy in the face of difficulties.

Duration: 1 hour.

Procedure:

It will be explained that overcoming is a resilience strategy, understood as the capacity to overcome (to give one's best to manage the situation and move forward despite the difficulty, to build positive life behaviors (modify habits, attitudes) and to preserve integrity (to take care of oneself, above all).

Training in overcoming strategy

Frequency: twice a week before training.

It will be left as an individual orientation for each athlete to reflect on what have been the vital moments that he/she has overcome as an athlete and as a person?

Closing evaluation: How did you feel about today's session?

Main components of the Psychological Training Program to stimulate resilience Objective: to stimulate psychological resilience in athletes when faced with adverse situations in table tennis.

Contents:

Due to the dynamics of the teaching-learning process, the following contents are combined with different components of physical, technical-tactical and theoretical-psychological preparation:

The bibliographic consultation made it possible to elaborate the proposal based on the contributions of Mari (1997); Cañizares (2004); Aybar and Morales (2020) and Moo and Góngora (2020).

About the methods used

The methods and techniques of psychological intervention are adjusted to the specific demands of table tennis and the team, as well as to the needs arising from competitive psychological demands.

Procedures for the application of the psychological training program

The training process consists of the following phases for its organization and development: contact, motivation, transformation or modifying phase.

Practical program application requirements

Responsible: researcher.

Executor: psychologist of the national team.

Participants: athletes, coaches.

Duration of each session: approximately 1 hour (16 hours in total).

It is a fundamental requirement for the application of the program to achieve favorable psychological atmospheres among the members, to commit each athlete to participate in the training, to consider the cumulative-progressive character of the training, to check the fulfillment of the objectives of the previous sessions and to provide the corresponding feedback in each session.

From the determination of the theoretical foundations that support this study, it is contributed to fill the theoretical gap found in the literature on psychological resilience in table tennis. The diagnosis carried out made it possible to verify the level of psychological resilience existing in the athletes of the U-18 and U-21 categories of the selected team, prior to the development of the psychological training program to stimulate this capacity.

The results obtained coincide with the research by Fletcher and Sarkar (2012) regarding the fact that, by possessing resilient characteristics, athletes evaluate stressful situations as motivating and not as a threat. Furthermore, they correspond with Fernández et al., (2020) in that those athletes with high resilience level tend to frequently use a task-focused style, manifested in positive reevaluation, problem-solving focus, and seeking social support. Reevaluation of the difficult situation and the self-perception of being able to cope with it increase the ability to overcome adverse experiences, become stronger and overcome them. Through the criteria of 11 specialists of high scientific rigor, a high evaluation of the program was obtained in terms of its design, usefulness and viability, given by the sessions, which objectives and content respond to the problems identified in the diagnosis, referred to the management of adverse situations and by the adjustment of these sessions to the competitive psychological demands of table tennis.

This evaluation of the program constitutes an aspect of great significance, since it endorses the application of the psychological training program in practice.

This work contributes to stimulate psychological qualities in the national team, as the training in resilience within the psychological preparation allows them to face adversities from the perspective of personal growth. They learn to balance their emotions, manage stress and, in turn, raise their self-concept by feeling more capable of dealing with any situation that may arise in sports training and competition.

The results achieved correspond to those expressed by Cañizares et al., (2020); Cadalso et al., (2020); Aybar and Morales (2020); Moo and Góngora (2020) and Gupta and McCarthy (2021); who in their research highlight the importance of psychological interventions in the psychological preparation of athletes, which allow them to achieve an "optimal state of mental fitness", modify the aspects that may have a negative character, weaknesses, inadequacies, reinforce or enhance the resources that the athlete or the team has, resolve difficulties, strengthen existing aspects, mobilize cognitive-affective and volitional reserves of behavior and encourage the athlete to develop solution strategies to adverse or stressful situations that arise.

Therefore, it is essential to train in resilience, as it constitutes a learning process for life, through the support of personal and social factors that protect and provide strength in the face of such situations.
