ABSTRACT
The study of psychological factors and their relationship with injuries in wrestlers is new field of research. Specifically, this study focuses on athletes’ engagement and its association with injuries. We characterize other factors like training loads, total number of injuries, topography, and other symptoms. Thirty-five wrestlers from different ages and competitive levels respond to Athletes Engagement Questionnaire and demographic inquiry. Results indicate no association between wrestlers’ overall engagement and total number of injuries. However, total number of injuries is associated with symptoms resulting from injury states, such as physical, behavioral, and psychological. We also give some guidelines regarding prevention and promotion of healthier wrestling experiences.
