Genç Sporcularda Ebeveyn Desteği Ölçeği: Geçerlik Güvenirlik Çalışması

Abstract

Genç sporcularda ebeveyn desteği süreç içerisinde karşılaşılan zorlukların üstesinden gelmek ve sporcuların gelişim süreçlerine olumlu katkı sağlamak için son derece önemlidir. Mevcut alanyazında yapılan araştırmalar ebeveyn desteği kavramını psiko-sosyal açıdan farklı boyutlarda incelemiş olmasına rağmen, spora özgü psikolojik boyutlarda kuramsal alt yapısı oluşturulan mevcut tek bir ölçüm aracı olarak ‘’Genç Sporcularda Ebeveyn Desteği Ölçeği (GSED-Ö)’’ Burke ve diğerleri (2023) tarafından geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçüm aracı olarak geliştirilmiştir. Bu çalışmanın amacı Burke ve diğerleri (2023) tarafından geliştirilen GSED-Ö’nün Türkçe formunun geçerlik ve güvenirliğinin genç sporcularda test edilmesidir. Çalışmanın örneklemini 5 farklı branşta yer alan ve yaşları 11 ile 17 arasında değişen toplam 300 (x_yaş= 14,41 ± 1,81; 110 kadın ve 190 erkek) aktif spor yapan katılımcı oluşturmaktadır. GSED-Ö 18 madde 4 alt boyuttan oluşan beşli Likert tipi bir ölçektir. Genç sporcuların, spor branşları ile ebeveynleri tarafından sağlanan destek, sırasıyla; duygusal destek, bilgi desteği, özerklik desteği ve araçsal destek olmak üzere toplam 4 alt boyutta değerlendirilmektedir. Uzman görüşleri sonrasında GSED-Ö’nün Türkçe formunun kapsam geçerliğinin uygun olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Doğrulayıcı Faktör Analizi sonuçlarına bakarak GSED-Ö’nün Türkçe forumunun orijinalindeki gibi duygusal, bilgi, özerklik ve araçsal destek olmak üzere dört boyutunu ortaya çıkararak, genç sporcuların ebeveyn desteği algılarını ölçmek için geçerli ve güvenilir bir ölçüm aracı olduğu söylenebilir. Gelecekte bu konuda araştırma yapmak isteyen araştırmacılar için, GSED-Ö genç sporcuların gelişim süreçlerinde ebeveyn desteğinin hangi boyutlarının düzenleyici etkilerinin olduğunu tespit etmede önemli bir ölçüm aracı olarak kullanılabilir.

Youth Sport Parental Support-Questionnaire: Validity and Reliability Study

Abstract

Parental support for young athletes is critical in overcoming the challenges encountered during the process and in positively contributing to the athletes' development processes. Although existing studies in the literature have examined the concept of parental support from different psychosocial dimensions, the "Youth Sport Parental Support-Questionnaire (YSPS-Q)" has been developed as a valid and reliable measurement tool by Burke et al. (2023) with a theoretical foundation in sport-specific psychological dimensions. This study aims to test the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the YSPS-Q developed by Burke et al. (2023) in young athletes. The study sample consists of 300 young athletes (mean age = 14,41 ± 1,81; 110 females and 190 males) aged between 11 and 17 from 5 different sports branches. The YSPS-Q is a Likert-type scale consisting of 18 items and four sub-dimensions. The support provided by the parents of the young athletes in their respective sports branches is evaluated in a total of 4 sub-dimensions: emotional support, informational support, autonomy support, and instrumental support. After expert opinions, it has been determined that the Turkish version has content validity. Confirmatory Factor Analysis results revealed four dimensions of the YSPS-Q Turkish version: emotional, informational, autonomy, and instrumental support, like the original scale. The YSPS-Q Turkish version is a valid and reliable measurement tool for assessing young athletes' perceptions of parental support. For researchers who want to research this area in the future, the YSPS-Q can be used as an essential measurement tool to determine the regulatory effects of different dimensions of parental support on young athletes' development processes.
