Computer engineer María Palacios has developed an online sports and psychological counseling application. The tool, called Teskal, is aimed at athletes who travel alone, as it facilitates communication between these and the trainers. It is based on a questionnaire that measures and transmits the mood, anxiety, emotional control, concentration... of the athlete. This allows to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the athlete and propose training plans exceeding the space-time limits. Palacios, in collaboration with the UPV, has carried out the application at the company Iceberg in Donostia. And the researcher explains that this web application has been very well received regardless of the gender of athletes and the type of sport, individual or collective.
