Background:
Temporomandibular disorders have a multifactorial origin and the psychological factor plays an important role in their triggering.
Objective:
To determine the vulnerability to stress in teenagers from sports institutions.
Methodology:
A cross-sectional descriptive observational study was conducted at the Sancti Spíritus provincial EIDE "Lino Salabarría Pupo" between October 2020 and March 2021. Seventy schoolchildren from tenth, eleventh and twelfth grades were selected by simple random sampling. The variable range of vulnerability to stress was measured. Theoretical, empirical and statistical methods were used.
Results:
51.4 % of the students were classified with vulnerability to stress, 40 % not vulnerable, 8.6 % seriously vulnerable and none extremely vulnerable.
Conclusions:
There is a predominance of teenagers from sports institutions with vulnerability to stress.
