description This study aims to examine the influence of positive thinking, psychological well-being, and mental toughness on the recovery process following strengthening exercises in individuals diagnosed with a meniscus tear in the knee. The research cohort comprises 32 athletes diagnosed with a meniscus tear through Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Of these participants, 26 are male, and 6 are female, all aged above 18, engaged in amateur sports across diverse disciplines, and having sustained injuries during athletic activities. The participants were randomly assigned to two groups: Group A (experimental, n=16) and Group B (control, n=16). The study adopts a mixed model incorporating experimental, survey, and relational methodologies. The experimental model utilizes the experimental method with pretest-follow-up test and posttest control group design. Over an 8-week period, participants engage in exercises with each training session comprising 10 repetitions conducted twice daily. Assessments using the Positive Thinking, Psychological Well-Being, and Mental Resilience scales occur during the Pre-Test, Follow-up Test, and Post-Test stages throughout the study duration. Analysis of the research results reveals mean scores for positive thinking and psychological well-being scales above the medium level, whereas mental toughness scale scores approximate the middle level. The study concludes a moderate, yet statistically insignificant, positive correlation among positive thinking, psychological well-being, and mental toughness scale scores. Significantly, participants, guided by a physical therapist, exhibit a faster recovery rate compared to the control group. Consequently, it is inferred that the incorporation of psychological support alongside physical exercises contributes to an accelerated recovery process.

Este estudio tiene como objetivo examinar la influencia del pensamiento positivo, el bienestar psicológico y la fortaleza mental en el proceso de recuperación después de ejercicios de fortalecimiento en personas diagnosticadas con un desgarro de menisco en la rodilla. La cohorte de investigación comprende 32 atletas diagnosticados con un desgarro de menisco mediante imágenes por resonancia magnética (IRM). De estos participantes, 26 son hombres y 6 mujeres, todos mayores de 18 años, practican deportes amateurs en diversas disciplinas y han sufrido lesiones durante actividades deportivas. Los participantes fueron asignados aleatoriamente a dos grupos: Grupo A (experimental, n=16) y Grupo B (control, n=16). El estudio adopta un modelo mixto que incorpora metodologías experimentales, de encuesta y relacionales. El modelo experimental utiliza el método experimental con diseño de grupo de control pretest-seguimiento y postest. Durante un período de 8 semanas, los participantes realizan ejercicios y cada sesión de entrenamiento comprende 10 repeticiones realizadas dos veces al día. Las evaluaciones que utilizan las escalas de pensamiento positivo, bienestar psicológico y resiliencia mental se realizan durante las etapas de prueba previa, prueba de seguimiento y prueba posterior a lo largo de la duración del estudio. El análisis de los resultados de la investigación revela puntuaciones medias en las escalas de pensamiento positivo y bienestar psicológico por encima del nivel medio, mientras que las puntuaciones en la escala de fortaleza mental se aproximan al nivel medio. El estudio concluye una correlación positiva moderada, aunque estadísticamente insignificante, entre las puntuaciones de las escalas de pensamiento positivo, bienestar psicológico y fortaleza mental. Significativamente, los participantes, guiados por un fisioterapeuta, exhiben una tasa de recuperación más rápida en comparación con el grupo de control. En consecuencia, se infiere que la incorporación de apoyo psicológico junto con ejercicios físicos contribuye a un proceso de recuperación acelerado.
