Keywords: sports qualifications, mental health, health-saving technologies, anxiety, neuroticism, self-regulation.

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to investigate the correlation between emotional stability and the following mental health parameters: personal anxiety, self-regulation, neuroticism, and life purpose in athletes of various levels of qualification. Research methods: the study used standardized valid methods including standard questionnaires, r-Pearson correlation analysis, and Student’s t-test to determine significant differences. Results. The research was based on the idea of athletes as self-organization and self-development subjects. As athletes’ sports qualifications increased, there was a statistically significant decrease in personal anxiety, neuroticism, and an improvement in self-regulation as predictors of emotional stability (р<.05; р<.01). Diverse life goals (.233; р<.05) and belief in their implementation (.437; р<.01) were vital for athletes’ dischargers.  athletes of the highest level were well aware (.501; р<.01) of the need for diversity (.382; р<.05) and harmony (.434; р<.05) of life purposes. Conclusions. The connection between respondents’ emotional stability and mental health was experimentally proven. Emotional stability has been demonstrated to have a positive impact on the development of respondents’ sports qualifications. The level of awareness of athletes’ life purposes – complex dynamic formations that reflect the nature of knowing their own life situation determined their psychological well-being.
