摘要：The aim of this study was to determine the effectiveness of communication skills training on the resilience and exercise self-efficacy of adolescent athletes. To this end, 30 adolescent athletes were randomly assigned to experimental and control groups (15 individuals per group). The experimental period consisted of twelve 90-min sessions of communication skills training that lasted four weeks. Measurements were performed pre-test and post-test using the Conner and Davitson Resilience (2003) and Bandura Exercise Self-Efficacy (1997) scales and the data was subjected to covariance analysis at the 95% confidence level. The results showed that, after controlling for pre-test levels, the levels of resilience and exercise self-efficacy in the experimental group were significantly higher than in the control group. This indicates that communication skills training is an effective way to increase resilience and exercise self-efficacy in adolescent athletes.
