Analitik Hiyerarşi Süreci (AHP) ile Bowlingde Yetenek Seçimi

Abstract

Bu araştırmanın temel amacı bowling disiplininde gerekli kriterleri ortaya koymak, Analitik Hiyerarşi Süreci (AHP) yöntemini kullanarak bu kriterlerin branşa yetenek seçimi açısından önemini belirleyerek, bowling için yetenek seçimine basit bir temel oluşturmaktır. Bu amaçla, 2022 Avrupa Gençler Bowling Şampiyonasına katılan çeşitli ülkelerin milli antrenörlerinin AHP yönteminin temelini oluşturan görüşlerinden yararlanılmıştır. Yapılan ikili karşılaştırmalar sonucunda bowling branşına yönelik yetenek seçiminde ihtiyaç duyulan dört ana kriter arasında bilişsel özellikler en önemli kriter olup, bunu sırasıyla psikososyal özellikler, motorik özellikler ve antropometrik ve fiziksel özellikler takip etmektedir. Ana ölçütlere ilişkin alt ölçütler incelenip bütünleştirildiğinde bilişsel özellikler arasında en yüksek yüzdesel ağırlığa sahip alt kriter öz denetimdir. Buna karşılık en düşük ağırlığa sahip alt kriter problem çözme yeteneğidir. Psikososyal özelliklere ilişkin ağırlık yüzdesi ile en önemli alt kriter özgüven yaklaşımı iken, en az önemli olan alt kriter ise dışa dönük kişilik özelliğidir. Motorik özelliklere ilişkin ağırlık yüzdesi en yüksek olan alt kriter denge ve koordinasyon iken, en düşük ağırlık yüzdesine sahip alt kriter ise anaerobik güçtür. Son olarak antropometrik ve fiziksel özellikler alt kriterlerinden en yüksek ağırlık yüzdesi vücut ağırlığı, en düşük alt kriterler ise deri kıvrımı ve çevre ölçümleridir. Bowling branşında genel olarak yetenek seçiminde en önemli kriterler otokontrol, odaklanma, denge ve koordinasyon olmuştur.

Talent Selection for Bowling by the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP)

Abstract

The main purpose of this research is to reveal the necessary criteria in the bowling discipline, to determine the importance of these criteria in terms of talent selection for the branch using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method, and to create a simple basis for the talent selection process. For this purpose, the opinions form the basis of the AHP method of the national coaches of various countries participating in the 2022 European Youth Bowling Championship were used. As a result of pairwise comparisons, four main criteria which are needed for the bowling branch in talent selection; cognitive features are the most important criteria, followed by psychosocial characteristics, motoric characteristics, and anthropometric and physical characteristics, respectively. When the sub-criteria related to the main criteria are examined and integrated, self-control is the sub-criterion with the highest percentage weight among the cognitive characteristics. In contrast, the sub-criterion with the lowest weight is problem-solving ability. Whereas the most important sub-criterion with a weight percentage related to psychosocial characteristics is the self-confidence approach, the least important sub-criterion is the extrovert personality characteristic. The sub-criterion with the highest weight percentage related to motoric characteristics is balance and coordination, while the sub-criterion with the lowest weight is anaerobic power. Finally, among the anthropometric and physical characteristics sub-criteria, the highest weight percentage is body weight, while the lowest sub-criteria are skinfold and circumference measurements. Generally, the most important criteria for talent selection in the bowling branch have been self-control, focusing, balance, and coordination.
