Sport Mental Health Assessment Tool 1

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) developed the Sport Mental Health Assessment Tool 1 (SMHAT-1), a standardized assessment aiming to identify athletes at early stages who may be at risk of or already experiencing mental health symptoms and disorders. By recognizing these issues promptly, athletes can receive timely referrals to suitable support and treatment, which not only aids in their overall well-being but also enhances their performance and resilience in their respective sports, ensuring optimal athletic achievement and longevity.
