Hi Everyone,

I am conducting a study as part of a Masters program at Victoria University.

This study aims to develop an understanding of what “mental toughness” is for tenpin bowlers and what are important aspects of mental toughness in tenpin bowling. Although it has longed been used by athletes and coaches, mental toughness is the latest new area of research in sport psychology. It is widely used in sport arenas, and yet mental toughness is one of the least understood terms in the field of sport psychology. Results of this study will lead to clearer understanding of the construct of mental toughness.

In this project, the Mental Toughness Inventory will be used to measure tenpin bowlers’ mental toughness levels. We will also measure bowlers’ performance from looking at their bowling results over 10 weeks. The inventory and weekly results are done and recorded online.

If you are interested in this study, and wishes to participate or have any questions about it, please send me an email at [email protected].

Cheers
Carlin Lee
