Frustration Tolerance and Resilience in High Performing Athletes

The development of resilience requires experience with adversity and the subsequent adaptation of coping strategies. To be successful, athletes must constantly adapt to challenges and cope with failure, and as such they have opportunities to develop resilience and frustration tolerance in somewhat controlled environments. Uloma will examine this relationship between frustration tolerance and resilience in a select group of high performing college athletes.
