What is Mental Toughness?
“Mental toughness is about how effectively individuals deal with stress, pressure, and challenge. It describes the mindset that every person adopts in everything they do and is closely related to qualities such as character, resilience, and grit.”

Mental Toughness is a ‘plastic’ personality trait, which means it is changeable and can be developed with practice. Great news for anyone wanting to develop their Mental Toughness and perform better. It can be measured with the MTQ48.
What is the MTQ48 Test?
The MTQ48 instrument, by AQR International, is a unique and innovative psychometric tool that measures and reports a person’s Mental Toughness. Where many psychometric tests aim to measure how we behave and act, the MTQ48 explores how we think.
- Understanding how we think is essential if we are to change and develop our behaviours; to respond differently – our thinking drives our behaviour. It’s an inside-out approach to change and development.
- The results of the MTQ48 test enables the user to pinpoint the areas for development, together with practical strategies for change.
- The MTQ48 reports a person’s mental toughness over 4 areas; Commitment, Challenge, Confidence, and Control.
