It was also done to compare difference of mental toughness dimension between contact sport and non-contact sport athletes and difference of mental toughness between genders. It was hypothesized that there was a relationship between mental toughness and level o f athletes’ achievement among athletes. 285 athletes from SUKOB competition (males = 147, females =138) aged 18 to 26 years old participated in this study. The methods involved in this study was self evaluation by the participants themtself. Questionnaire was distributed to the athletes that participates the event during that time.

Contact sport athletes score higher in overall mental toughness compare with non-contact sport athletes (f=2.99, p=.003). A significant, weak and positive relationship between highest level of athletes achievement and overall mental toughness (r=. 197,/?=.001) also can be found in this study.
