Abstract

The purpose of this research is to examine athletes' sportsmanship understanding and self-efficacy levels in terms of different variables. The sample of the research consisted of 178 student athletes studying at Ahi Evran University, Faculty of Sports Sciences in 2024. In the study, a personal information form, the sportsmanship behavior scale developed by Gümüş et al. (2020) and the self-efficacy scale developed by Riggs, Warka, Babasa, Betancourt and Hooker (1994) and adapted into Turkish by Öcel (2002) were used as data collection tools. Distribution, frequency, t test, anova test and correlation analysis were performed to compare the relevant data. As a result of statistical analysis, while there was no significant difference for all scales according to the participants' gender, type of sport and family income level variables, a significant difference was observed for the variables of nationality and sport year. Additionally, it was determined that there was no significant relationship between sportsmanship and self-efficacy.

Sporcularda Sportmenlik Anlayış ve Öz Yeterlik Düzeyleri Arasındaki İlişkinin İncelenmesi

Abstract

Bu araştırmanın amacı sporcuların sportmenlik anlayış ve özyeterlik düzeylerinin farklı değişkenler açısından incelenmesidir. Araştırmanın örneklemini 2024 yılı Ahi Evran Üniversitesi Spor Bilimleri Fakültesinde eğitim gören 178 sporcu öğrenci oluşturmuştur. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak kişisel bilgi formu, Gümüş ve arkadaşları (2020) tarafından geliştirilen sportmenlik davranışı ölçeği ve Riggs, Warka, Babasa, Betancourt ve Hooker (1994) tarafından geliştirilip, Türkçe uyarlaması ise Öcel (2002) tarafından yapılan öz yeterlilik ölçeği kullanılmıştır. İlgili verilerin karşılaştırılmasında dağılım, frekans, t testi, anova testi ve kolerasyon analizi yapılmıştır. İstatistiksel analizler sonucunda katılımcıların cinsiyet, spor türü ve aile gelir düzeyi değişkenlerine göre tüm ölçekler için anlamlı fark görülmezken, millilik ve spor yılı değişkenleri için anlamlı farklılık gözlenmiştir. Ayrıca sportmenlik ve öz yeterlik arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olmadığı tespit edilmiştir.
