Abstract
Recent studies in sport psychology have focused on resilience and performance in sport. As an important psychological performance determinant in elite performance, resilience studies included team and individual athletes. This study provides a different perspective to resilience studies with goal commitment approach. Goal commitment is one of the recent factors being examining in sports. The aim of this study to examine the role of goal commitment in team and individual resilience in sport. Two hundered eighty-nine team athletes (Mage=20.18±4.69) completed commitment and resilience measures. Different mediation models indicating the role of goal commitment was hypothesized. The mediation model analysis revealed that goal commitment was a critical component of resilience in sport since it had a necessary role to increase resilience and decrease vulnerabilities when encountered setbacks.
