ABSTRACT
O objetivo deste estudo foi identificar o perfil da Resiliência Psicológica (RP) em praticantes amadores de Beach Tennis (BT) em eventos competitivos e estabelecer parâmetros iniciais de RP por categorias do BT. Participaram 50 atletas com idade de 37,4 ± 7,92 anos. As coletas foram feitas via Google Forms® entre os meses de março a maio de 2022 durante as competições realizadas no Estado de Minas Gerais e Rio de Janeiro, sendo aplicada a Escala de Resiliência no Esporte (RS-Sp). O escore total da RS-Sp foi de 10,75 ± 1,57 pontos, sendo classificado como baixa, segundo o parâmetro para atletas brasileiros. Conclui-se o perfil de RPE em praticantes amadores de BT está abaixo do esperado para a medida podendo influenciar em menor capacidade de lidar com processos estressores advindos das situações esportivas.
The aim of this study was to identify the profile of Psychological Resilience in amateur Beach Tennis practitioners in competitive events. Fifty athletes with age of 37.4 ± 7.92 years participated. The Scale of Resilience in Sport (RS-Sp) was applied. The collections were made via Google Forms® between the months of March to May 2022 during the competitions held in the state of Minas Gerais and Rio de Janeiro. The total score of the SR-Sp was 10.75, ±1.57 points (low SR-Sp) according to the parameter for Brazilian athletes. It is concluded that Beach tennis practitioners presented lower PR indexes than expected for athletes, which can influence in a lower capacity to deal with stressful processes arising from sportive situations.

ABSTRACT
Learning about the relative timing dimension of a motor skill is enhanced by factors that promote higher response stability between trials. Conversely, learning the absolute timing dimension is favored by lower trial-to-trial stability. The mental practice may increase response stability during acquisition since there is a low possibility of adjustments made between trials. Thus, this study aimed to test the hypothesis that some factors that increase response stability during the acquisition phase contribute to an enhanced relative timing dimension learning. Our hypothesis is that mental practice shows less relative timing error than the absence of practice. A sequential key-pressing task was practiced with two goals: learn (1) relative timing dimension and (2) absolute timing dimension. Participants were assigned to one of three groups: Physical, Mental, or No practice. The Physical group showed greater learning of both dimensions than the other two groups. The Mental group showed greater learning of relative timing dimension than the No practice group. The results suggest that mental practice produces increased stability, which in turn promotes learning of the relative timing dimension.
