| Abstract | This study aimed to translate and to validate the Athletic Mental Energy Scale (AMES) into Thai version. In study 1, we investigatedthe content validity by inviting 15 participants (sport/language experts=5; athletes=10) to examine the appropriateness of the content of a translated AMES-Thai. In study 2, the sampleincluded572 Thai student-athletes from University teams in Thailand (62.8% menand 37.2% women) who participate in varioussports, both individual and team, and have a mean age of 19.7years.Moreover, weexamined the factorial structure and reliability of the AMES-Thai usingconfirmatory factor analysis (CFA)and reliability analysis.In study 3, the sample included 442 Thai student-athletes from university teams in Thailand;we investigated theconvergent and discriminant validity via correlations among the AMES-Thai and athletes’ stress, positive state of mind, and burnout. AMES-Thai had a moderate-to-high positive correlation with athletic mentality, reflecting the convergence validity of the Thai version of the AMES as having factors from the same structure as the original version. Results showed that the 6-factor, 18-item AMES-Thai had adequate validity and reliability. We recommend thatThai scholars and sports professionals use the AMES-Thai for futureresearch and practice |
