Salud mental, Atletas de éliteResumen
El foco de la investigación sobre el desarrollo en la última década ha acentuado la naturaleza crítica de reconocer la salud mental de los atletas de élite. Profesionales e investigadores se han unido para reconocer la susceptibilidad de los deportistas de élite a los problemas de salud mental en un nivel similar al de la población general (Moesch et al., 2018; Poucher & Cairney, 2021). Se reconoce que los atletas de élite experimentan una amplia gama de trastornos como ansiedad, depresión, trastornos alimentarios y abuso de sustancias, que pueden verse influenciados por una serie de aspectos relacionados con su carrera atlética, su rendimiento y factores externos (Rice & Parker, 2016). ). La noción de "salud mental" se ha descrito de muchas maneras. Según la Organización Mundial de la Salud, la salud mental se define como “un estado de bienestar en el que cada individuo es consciente de su propio potencial, puede hacer frente a las tensiones normales de la vida, puede trabajar de forma productiva y fructífera y es capaz de hacer una contribución a su comunidad” (Organización Mundial de la Salud, 2014). Esta definición dada destaca que la salud mental va más allá de la ausencia de trastornos y enfatiza la capacidad de un individuo para lograr un bienestar óptimo. Además, la Asociación Estadounidense de Psiquiatría define los "trastornos mentales" como "un síndrome caracterizado por una alteración clínicamente significativa en la cognición, la regulación de las emociones o el comportamiento de un individuo que refleja una disfunción en los procesos psicológicos, biológicos o de desarrollo subyacentes al funcionamiento mental", incluidas las afecciones. como trastornos alimentarios, depresión y ansiedad (Asociación Estadounidense de Psiquiatría, 2013).
