Abstract
The study aimed to develop two scales to assess tolerance capacity and psychological distress among youth athletes at the Sports Talent Care Center for Athletics. A descriptive correlational approach was used. The sample included 97 athletes participating in running, throwing, and jumping events, selected through a comprehensive census method during the 2023/2024 sports season. The results showed that both scales are valid and reliable, with sound psychometric properties in sports psychology, and are suitable for talented youth athletes. The study highlights the importance of using scientifically validated psychological measures in athlete development. Accordingly, it recommends that sports talent care centers focus on providing a supportive psychological environment that reduces stress and negative situations to enhance athletes’ psychological well-being and performance.
