This study reports on the examination results of two recently standardized self-evaluated questionnaires: State-Trait Personality Inventory - form Y (STPI-Y) and Lifestyle Defense Mechanisms Inventory (LDM). The goal of our study was to gain information about some personality and coping characteristic features of different levels of high school athletes. The findings suggest that anxiety and depression are inversely correlated with the rational/emotionally suppressive coping strategy for both sexes. Anger and rational/emotionally defensive coping strategy correlate inversely only for males. Curiosity promotes both LDM coping strategies only for females. The two social coping strategy (rationality/emotionally defensiveness and need for harmony) correlated positively.
