Examination of the Leisure Time Satisfaction and Happiness Levels of Folk Dancers

Abstract

The aim of this research conducted with folk dancers is to examine the leisure time, satisfaction and happiness levels of folk dancers. In this context, the universe sample group of the relevant research was 75 folk dancers in Alanya. The relevant data was collected from folk dancers through Google forms. In the study, short Oxford happiness and leisure time satisfaction scale was used as a data collection medium. SPSS 26.0 program was used in the analysis of the data obtained within the scope of the study. In the study, the normality of the data was examined by looking at the skewness and kurtosis values before the analysis. Since the skewness and kurtosis values of the data obtained from folk dancers are between -1.5 + 1.5 reference values, the normal distribution is accepted (Tabachnick and Fidell, 2013). Therefore, sample t test, one-way analysis of variance and Pearson correlation analysis independent of parametric tests were performed in the study. As a result of this research, which was carried out to examine the leisure time and happiness levels of folk dancers, it was found that the leisure time satisfaction levels of male folk dancers were higher than female folk dancers, and as the education level decreased, happiness was affected accordingly.
