|a There is a lack of research in how individuals with an acquired physical disability experience resilience. The primary purpose of this study was to investigate how these athletes describe and explain their personal experience of resilience. A total of five in depth phenomenological interviews were conducted with athletes with an acquired physical disability (4 male; 1 female), ranging in age from 26-54 (M = 39.2, SD = 12.3), and representing a variety of sports (i.e., powerlifting, CrossFit, surfing, sled hockey, wheelchair basketball, rowing, triathlon, and integrative dance) to determine their experience of resilience. Qualitative analysis revealed a final thematic structure of 5 major themes. The results provide an understanding of the definition of resilience; the role sport played in their resilience, social support, reasons for resilience, and how the athletes see abilities over limitations. Finally, practical implications are discussed for athletes, coaches, mental performance coaches, as well as other helping professions. |
