Examination of the Social Achievement Goal of the Students in the Faculty of Sports Sciences in Terms of Various Demographic Variables

Abstract

This study aims to examine the social achievement goals of the students who continue their education at the Faculty of Sport Sciences and to compare them in terms of various demographic variables. The study group consists of a total of 230 volunteers, 74 females and 156 males. “Social Achievement Goal Scale” (SAGS) was used as a data collection tool in the study. The Cronbach Alpha internal consistency coefficient was calculated to determine the scale’s reliability. In the analysis of the data obtained, the Shapiro-Wilk Test was applied to determine the normality level of the dependent variable as well as the descriptive statistical methods of the independent variables. Mann-Whitney U Test, the nonparametric test, was used to determine the difference between the groups of the sample that did not comply with the normal distribution. When the results of the U-Test were examined, the independent variables of the individuals who “exercise regularly,” “have a professional athlete background,” “take duty in a sports organization,” and “o team sports” showed a significant difference in terms of the total mean score of SAGS. However, when the results were analyzed in terms of gender variables, it was seen that there was no significant difference. As a result, it has been determined that the Faculty of Sport Sciences students have a high social success target. In addition, it was determined that individuals with an athletic background showed behaviors related to social success more intensely than other groups.
