Introduction:
The planning of competition-based sports and high performance requires the development of the athlete’s mental capacities to have a determining significance in the results. Among the techniques used, cognitive restructuring stands out.
Aim:
The purpose of this paper was to demonstrate the benefits of cognitive restructuring and learning psycho-educative techniques for athlete emotional control.
Methodology:
This research relied on an experimental case study involving an underage athlete. All the ethical parameters demanded for this study were fulfilled. The subject was a 13-year-old female climbing athlete. The psychological tests used were POMS, Pelletier motivation, and CSAI-2R. The psycho-educative interventions were performed twice a week (50 min), during a two-month planned microcycle.
Results:
The Profile of Mood States (POMS) resulted in a low score regarding the core item, which led to personal exploration and, simultaneously, ended with a psychological and sports assessment through the CSAI-2R pre-competitive anxiety test, which identified 65% cognitive anxiety, and 88% somatic anxiety.
Conclusions:
The differential results from the POMS and CSAI-2R tests indicated low psychological scores. This intervention process was an emotional containment tool in this particular case study.
