Abstract

To achieve optimal performance in training and competition, internal dialogue and emotional regulation are two important aspects that need to be considered. Research on the relationship between self-talk and emotional regulation shows that self-talk plays a role in improving emotional control, reducing anxiety, and helping athletes maintain focus when facing competitive pressure. Specifically in volleyball, athletes often find it difficult to regulate their emotions and self-talk, which prevents them from performing at their best. This study aims to determine the relationship between self-talk and emotional regulation in volleyball athletes in West Bandung Regency. A quantitative descriptive method with a correlational design was used in this study. Twenty-four volleyball athletes from West Bandung Regency participated in this study as samples. A questionnaire to measure self-talk and emotional regulation was given to the samples once. After that, the data were processed and analyzed using SPSS Version 25. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between self-talk and emotional regulation among volleyball athletes. This study concluded that self-talk plays an important role in regulating the emotions of volleyball athletes in West Bandung Regency to achieve their desired goals, namely performance.
