Kültüre Özgü Mükemmeliyetçilik Örüntüleri: Çocuk Sporcular, Ebeveynleri ve Antrenörleri

Abstract

Araştırmada, Türk kültürüne özgü spora ilişkin mükemmeliyetçilik örüntüleriyle ilişki olarak rekreasyonel amaçlı çeşitli sporlarla uğraşan çocuk sporcuların spora ilişkin mükemmeliyetçilik düzeylerinin demografik değişkenler açısından incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Kolayda örnekleme yöntemi gerçekleştirilen araştırmaya Türkiye’de çeşitli illerdeki spor kulüpleri altında yer alan rekreasyonel amaçlı çeşitli sporlarla (voleybol, futbol, yüzme, tenis, cimnastik ve basketbol) ilgilenen 394 çocuk sporcudan veriler toplanmıştır. Veri toplama aracı olarak “Sporda Mükemmel Performans Ölçeği (Çocuk Formu)” kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler, T-testi, Anova, Post-Hoc analizleri kullanılmıştır. T-testi analizi sonuçları, cinsiyet ve yaş değişkenleri ile cinsiyet, ebeveyn baskısı ve antrenör baskısı değişkenlerinin performans mükemmeliyetçiliği ile anlamlı bir ilişkisi olduğunu göstermiştir (p<0,01). Anova ve Post-Hoc analizi sonuçları spora teşvik ve spor branşları değişkenleri ile mükemmel performans arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar olduğunu göstermektedir (p<0,05). Araştırma sonucunda erkek çocuk sporcuların performans mükemmeliyetçiliğinin yüksek olduğu; futbolla ilgilenen çocuk sporcuların diğer branşlara göre daha yüksek performans mükemmeliyetçiliği gösterdiği; antrenörleri tarafından spora teşvik edilen çocuk sporcuların performans mükemmeliyetçiliğinin daha yüksek olduğu; sporda ebeveyn ve antrenör baskısının performans mükemmeliyetçiliğini olumsuz etkilediği sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır.

Culture-Specıfıc Perfectıonısm Patterns: Chıld Athletes, Theır Parents and Coaches

Abstract

The study aimed to examine the sport-related perfectionism levels of child athletes engaged in various sports for recreational purposes in terms of demographic variables in relation to sport-related perfectionism patterns specific to Turkish culture. The study, which was conducted using the convenience sampling method, collected data from 394 child athletes who are engaged in various sports (volleyball, football, swimming, tennis, gymnastics, and basketball) for recreational purposes in sports clubs in various cities in Turkey. The “Excellent Performance Scale in Sports (Child Form)” was used as the data collection tool. Descriptive statistics, T-test, Anova, Post-Hoc analyses were used to analyze the data. The t-test analysis results showed a significant relationship between sex and age variables with sex and parental pressure and coach pressure variables with performance perfectionism (p<0.01). The results of Anova and Post-Hoc analysis show statistically significant differences between the variables of sports encouragement and sports branches and excellent performance (p<0.05). As a result of the research, it was concluded that the performance perfectionism of male child athletes is high; child athletes interested in football show higher performance perfectionism compared to other branches; child athletes encouraged by their coaches have higher performance perfectionism; and parental and coach pressure in sports negatively affects performance perfectionism.
