Mental health symptoms and disorders are common among elite athletes, may have sport related manifestations within this population and impair performance. Mental health cannot be separated from physical health, as evidenced by mental health symptoms and disorders increasing the risk of physical injury and delaying subsequent recovery. There are no evidence or consensus based guidelines for diagnosis and management of mental health symptoms and disorders in elite athletes. Diagnosis must differentiate character traits particular to elite athletes from psychosocial maladaptations.Management strategies should address all contributors to mental health symptoms and consider biopsychosocial factors relevant to athletes to maximise benefit and minimise harm. Management must involve both treatment of affected individual athletes and optimising environments in which all elite athletes train and compete. To advance a more standardised, evidence based approach to mental health symptoms and disorders in elite athletes, an International Olympic Committee Consensus Work Group critically evaluated the current state of science and provided recommendations.

“…[13] A research by Sarac et al conducted among American college athletes showed that the lifetime occurrence of mental health conditions in this population (14.0%) is far less lower than estimates in the general population. [14] In the analysis, the lowest percentage of dental students with major depressive disorder was found among those, who declared that they participated in social gatherings often enough. According to Elmer and Stadtfeld, individuals with symptoms of depression are more likely to be isolated in their social networks, which can lead to worsening of their symptoms.…”

Introduction and objective. Depression is a disease that affects over 264 million people worldwide. According to research, the problem of depression concerns dentistry students. The aim of the research was to investigate the prevalence and severity of depressive symptoms among Polish dental students, determine factors associated with this phenomenon and examine the relationship between these factors and depressive symptoms. Material and method. The participants of the study were dental students enrolled in each of the 10 Polish universities that offer dental education. The research tool was an author's questionnaire and a Polish-language version of 9-Item-Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9). Results. A total of 247 dental students took part in the study. The statistical analysis showed that 53.85% of the respondents were provisionally diagnosed with major depression. 8.91% of the participants had symptoms of severe depression. The research suggests that not doing sports regularly and not getting enough sleep are factors associated with depression among Polish dental students. Conclusions. Depressive symptoms among Polish dental students are common. Results suggest that it is important for students to maintain physical activity and take care of proper sleep hygiene. Further research needs to be done in order to explore more factors associated with depressive symptoms in the above-mentioned group.

“…Physical condition is the main factor for an athlete, especially a football athlete, and this factor must be passed by a football athlete before getting to know or train about technique, tactics and mentality. With this, a technique is needed [38]. Seeing that this factor is very important, it is necessary to use effective and efficient training techniques and models to improve the physical condition of soccer athletes, and one of the training models used in this study is circuit training [39].…”

Physical condition is one of the important elements for athletes to develop techniques, tactics, strategies and skills mentally, because good physical condition will affect the athlete's appearance on the field. This study aims to determine whether there is an effect of circuit training on improving the physical condition of soccer athletes at Northwest Pantar football school. The model in this study is a quasi-experimental with a quantitative approach to one group pretest-posttest design. The instruments in this study were the vertical jump test, sit and reach test, 40 meter run test, agility run test, coordination test, endurance test, leg muscle strength test and abdominal muscle test. The population in this study amounted to 20 athletes, and then all populations were used as subjects in this study. Data analysis in this study used a t-test with a significant level of 5%. The results of this study indicate that there is an effect of circuit training on improving physical condition for soccer athletes at SSB PBL. Thus the hypothesis in the study is accepted. The limitations in this study include time, number of SBB, research subjects and training models that are still single.
