Coping with stress and self-confidence in athletes: A Review

Öz

Due to the rapidly changing and developing living conditions, it is inevitable for a social being to react differently when the physical and spiritual limits of the human being are challenged and to try to adapt to these changes. The concept of stress is one of the psychological concepts that society learns quickly. Stress, which is an important part of daily life, arises as a result of the individual's reaction to events arising from his environment. The concept of stress, which was not very common in the past centuries, has become one of the words we use frequently in our daily lives, these days when living standards have increased compared to the last century and people are more knowledgeable and richer. The ability to cope with stress in athletes is a factor that greatly affects their sports performance. Self-confidence is one of the main characteristics of personality and is an important factor affecting the behavior of the individual. Self-confidence is a feature that can be differentiated with the effect of variables such as family, environment and school, which are shaped as the individual gets older. In short, self-confidence is not an innate feature, it has a dynamic compilation structure. Self-confidence is also an interesting factor in athletes because it does not allow the success of athletes to be negatively affected. In the light of this information, coping with stress and self-confidence in athletes are presented in this review.
