Abstract

This study aimed to examine the emotional intelligence (EI) levels of youth athletes participating
in the National Youth Games qualifying round. The sample consisted of 400 athletes under 18 years old from region 5, selected from a population of 5,840 using Yamane’s (1973) formula with a 95% confidence level and ±5% error. Stratified random sampling by gender and simple random sampling within strata were employed. The instrument was the Department of Mental Health’s EI Assessment for Adolescents, covering three dimensions: good, smart, and happy, with an overall reliability of 0.97. Data were analyzed using percentage, mean, and standard deviation. Results showed that both male (M = 136.58 ± 1.00) and female athletes (M = 137.85 ± 0.98) scored below normal in overall EI. Specifically, the “good” dimension (positive thinking) was below normal for both genders (male = 45.03 ± 7.03; female = 45.75 ± 6.25), while the “smart” (emotional control and decision-making) and “happy” (stress management and calmness) dimensions were at normal levels. These findings suggest that although youth athletes demonstrated lower positive thinking, they were able to regulate emotions and maintain psychological well-being. In conclusion, EI development programs for youth athletes should emphasize enhancing positive thinking alongside emotional regulation and mental health to strengthen their potential and competitive readiness.
