Binaan KONI Aceh Menuju PON Aceh-Sumut Tahun 2024. [Skripsi. Universitas

Ketangguhan mental menjadi faktor kunci keberhasilan atlet, mencakup
kemampuan menghadapi tekanan, menjaga fokus, mempertahankan motivasi, dan
mengatasi tantangan dengan ketenangan. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk
menganalisis ketangguhan mental (mental toughness) atlet pencak silat binaan
KONI Aceh dalam persiapan menuju PON Aceh-Sumut 2024. Berdasarkan
observasi awal, banyak atlet pencak silat menghadapi tantangan mental seperti
kurang percaya diri dan tekanan dari suporter, yang berpotensi memengaruhi
performa mereka. Jenis penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dengan
metode deskriptif. Populasi dalam penelitian ini atlet pencak silat binaan KONI
Aceh menuju PON Aceh-Sumut yang berjumlah 12 orang. Mengingat jumlah
populasi yang relatif kecil, maka semua anggota populasi di jadikan sampel
penelitian (total sampling) . Data dikumpulkan melalui angket yang dirancang
berdasarkan skala Likert untuk mengukur ketangguhan mental toughness. Analisis
data dilakukan dengan menghitung rata-rata dan persentase klasifikasi tingkat
ketangguhan mental toughness. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa rata-rata skor
ketangguhan mental atlet adalah 82,42 yang berada dalam kategori tinggi. Dengan
rincian sebagai berikut: (1) sebanyak 9 responden pada katogori tinggi (75%), dan
(2) sebanyak 3 responden berada pada kategori sedang (25%). Kesimpulannya,
mayoritas atlet memiliki ketangguhan mental yang baik, meskipun beberapa masih
memerlukan peningkatan. Peneliti menyarankan program pelatihan mental lebih
intensif, termasuk simulasi pertandingan dan pendampingan psikologis, untuk
memastikan kesiapan optimal atlet dalam menghadapi PON Aceh-Sumut 2024.

ABSTRACT Miftah Safrida Lestari. (2024). Mentally Toughness Analysis of Pencak Silat Athletes Coached by KONI Aceh Towards PON Aceh-Sumut in 2024. [Thesis. Syiah Kuala University]. Under the guidance of Prof. Dr. Razali, M.Pd., and Amanda Syukriadi, S.Pd, M.Pd., Mentally toughness is a key factor in an athlete's success, including the ability to deal with pressure, maintain focus, maintain motivation, and overcome challenges with composure. This study aims to analyze the mental toughness of pencak silat athletes trained by KONI Aceh in preparation for the 2024 PON Aceh-Sumut. Based on initial observations, many pencak silat athletes face mental challenges such as lack of self-confidence and pressure from supporters, which have the potential to affect their performance. This type of research uses a quantitative approach with a descriptive method. The population in this study were 12 pencak silat athletes trained by KONI Aceh heading to PON Aceh-Sumut. Given the relatively small population, all members of the population were used as research samples (total sampling). Data were collected through a questionnaire designed based on a Likert scale to measure mental toughness. Data analysis was carried out by calculating the average and percentage of the classification of the level of mental toughness. The results showed that the average mental toughness score of athletes was 82.42, which was in the high category. With the following details: (1) as many as 9 respondents are in the high category (75%), and (2) as many as 3 respondents are in the medium category (25%). In conclusion, the majority of athletes have good mental toughness, although some still need improvement. Researchers recommend a more intensive mental training program, including match simulations and psychological assistance, to ensure optimal athlete readiness in facing the 2024 Aceh-North Sumatra PON.
