چکیده مقاله :
مقدمه: هدف این پژوهش بررسی رابطه هیجان‌های مثبت و توانمندی‌های منش با امید به زندگی با نقش میانجی انعطاف‌پذیری شناختی در ورزشکاران نخبه بود. روش: این مطالعه از نوع کاربردی و همبستگی محسوب می‌شود. جامعه آماری شامل تمامی ورزشکاران نخبه در سال ۱۴۰۳ بود که نمونه‌ای ۳۶۰ نفری (تفکیک جنسیت شامل دختران و پسران) به روش نمونه‌گیری در دسترس انتخاب شدند. داده‌ها با استفاده از مقیاس ارزیابی هیجانات مثبت و منفی (PANAS)، پرسشنامه توانمندی‌های منش (VIA-IS)، پرسشنامه امید به زندگی اشنایدر و پرسشنامه انعطاف‌پذیری شناختی (CFI) جمع‌آوری گردید. تحلیل داده‌ها با استفاده از مدل‌یابی معادلات ساختاری در نرم‌افزار AMOS نسخه ۲۴ انجام شد. یافته‌ها: یافته‌ها نشان دادند که هیجان‌های مثبت و توانمندی‌های منش به طور مستقیم و غیرمستقیم (از طریق انعطاف‌پذیری شناختی) با امید به زندگی ارتباط مثبت و معناداری دارند. همچنین، انعطاف‌پذیری شناختی نقش میانجی قابل توجهی در تقویت این روابط ایفا کرد. شاخص‌های برازش مدل نیز نشان‌دهنده تطابق مناسب مدل با داده‌ها بود. نتیجه‌گیری: نتیجه‌گیری این است که تقویت هیجان‌های مثبت و توانمندی‌های منش می‌تواند با افزایش انعطاف‌پذیری شناختی به بهبود امید به زندگی در ورزشکاران نخبه کمک کند. بنابراین، پیشنهاد می‌شود برنامه‌های آموزشی و مداخلات روانشناختی با تمرکز بر انعطاف‌پذیری شناختی طراحی و اجرا گردد تا سلامت روانی و امید به زندگی در این گروه افزایش یابد.
Introduction: he aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between positive emotions and character strengths with life expectancy, considering the mediating role of cognitive flexibility among elite athletes. Methods: his applied and correlational study was conducted on a statistical population of elite athletes in 2024. A total sample of 360 participants (both male and female) was selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS), the Values in Action Inventory of Strengths (VIA-IS), Snyder’s Life Expectancy Scale, and the Cognitive Flexibility Inventory (CFI). Data analysis was carried out using structural equation modeling (SEM) in AMOS version 24. Results: The results findings revealed that positive emotions and character strengths were positively and significantly associated with life expectancy, both directly and indirectly through cognitive flexibility. Furthermore, cognitive flexibility played a significant mediating role in strengthening these relationships. The model fit indices also indicated an acceptable fit of the proposed model with the data Conclusion: It can be concluded that enhancing positive emotions and character strengths may contribute to improving life expectancy among elite athletes by increasing cognitive flexibility. Therefore, it is recommended that educational programs and psychological interventions focusing on cognitive flexibility be developed and implemented to promote mental health and life expectancy in this population.
