Abstract

Determining how the recreation affected the social adaptation processes of female refugees who came to Turkey following the civil war in Syria with a case study constitutes the purpose of this research. Interview technique being among the qualitative research techniques was used in the research. 18 female refugees participating in recreative activities are the study group of the research. Participants were selected with criterion sampling being among the purposeful sampling methods. The semi-structured interview form developed by the researchers was used as a data collection tool. Data were analyzed with descriptive and content analysis methods and in this process, they were coded under the appropriate themes by using Nvivo 10 qualitative analysis program. Concerning the analysis of data obtained, the opinions of female refugees are observed to be collected under 3 (three) themes namely “psychological”, “physiological” and “social”. The results of this study indicate that “recreation” has an important role in facilitating the social adaptation process of female refugees through the recreative activities they participate. The results of these surveys are considered to be important data for public and private sector institutions and it is recommended to prepare, implement and support recreational activities for refugee groups.
