Psychometric Validation of the Mental Toughness Scale (MTS) in Chilean University Athletes

These data correspond to the validation of the Mental Toughness Scale (MTS) with Chilean athletes. The dataset includes responses from university athletes across various sports disciplines, collected as part of a study assessing the factorial structure, reliability, and validity of the MTS in this population. The data were analysed using Exploratory Structural Equation Modelling (ESEM) to determine the most appropriate factor structure for measuring mental toughness in Chilean sports contexts.

本数据集对应智利运动员群体的心理韧性量表（Mental Toughness Scale, MTS）验证研究。该数据集收录了来自多个运动项目的高校运动员的作答数据，相关数据取自一项旨在评估该量表在该人群中因子结构、信度与效度的研究。本研究采用探索性结构方程建模（Exploratory Structural Equation Modelling, ESEM）对数据进行分析，以确定适配智利体育语境中心理韧性测量的最优因子结构。
