Abstract
The dual career in which an athlete combines studies or work with sport, can be facilitated or interrupted by different factors. The aim of the present study was to know the prevalence of resilience and burnout symptoms of professional athletes; and analyze the differences based on their compatibility or not with an academic and/or professional career. Elite athletes of different modalities were evaluated, 29 men and 3 women (age: M = 22.37 SD = 3.9), who were administered the Resilience Scale (Ruíz, De la Vega, Poveda, Rosado, & Serpa, 2012; adaptation of Wagnild and Young, 1993) adapted to Spanish and the Burnout Inventory in Athletes Revised (IBD-R; Garcés, De Francisco and Arce, 2012). The results showed that 27.7% of the elite athletes who, in turn, carried out their studies, presented a high resilience compared to 10% of the athletes who only practice sport, notable significant differences. Regarding burnout syndrome, 81.25% of the athletes evaluated had related symptoms, without... La carrera dual en la que un deportista combina es-tudios o trabajo con deporte puede verse facilitada o interrumpida por distintos factores. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue conocer la prevalencia de resiliencia y sintomatología de burnout de deportistas profesionales y analizar las diferencias en función de su compatibilidad o no con una carrera académica y/o pro-fesional. Se evaluó a deportistas élite de diferentes mo-dalidades, 29 varones y 3 mujeres (edad: M = 22.37 DT = 3.9), a los que se le administró la Escala de Resiliencia (Ruíz, De la Vega, Poveda, Rosado, & Serpa, 2012; adap-tación de Wagnild y Young, 1993) adaptada al español y el Inventario de Burnout en Deportistas Revisado (IBD-R; Garcés, De Francisco y Arce, 2012). Los resultados mostraron que un 27.7% de los deportistas élite que, a su vez, realizaban sus estudios, presentaba una eleva-da resiliencia en comparación con el 10% de los atletas que úni...
