Abstract
Objective: The descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted with the aim of determining the yoga self-efficacy levels and influencing factors in yoga practitioners.
Materials and Methods: The study was conducted between 17 October 2021 and 31 January 2022 with 72 yoga practitioners in a yoga center. The data were collected using personal information form and Yoga Self-Efficacy Scale. Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation, frequency, percentage, median, and quartiles), Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U tests were used to analyze the data.
Results: Median age of the participants was 34.5, most of them were female (76.4%) and had higher education (68.1%). In this study; practicing for less than an hour, being an advanced yoga practitioner, having a trainer certificate and giving yoga lessons significantly increase the total scale score and its subscale scores (p<0.05). On the other hand, socio-demographic characteristics of the participants such as age, gender and marital status did not make a significant difference in the total scale score and its subscale scores (p>0.05).
Conclusion: Based on the results of the research; yoga self-efficacy, another yoga self-efficacy influencing factors and yoga-related injuries should be examined by subsequent researchers.

Abstract
Giriş ve Amaç: Tanımlayıcı-kesitsel tasarımla yürütülen bu araştırma yoga yapan bireylerin yoga öz-etkililik düzeylerinin
belirlenmesi ve öz-etkililik düzeyini etkileyen faktörlerin incelenmesi amacıyla gerçekleştirilmiştir.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Araştırma bir yoga merkezinde 17 Ekim 2021- 31 Ocak 2022 tarihleri arasında aktif yoga yapan ve
araştırmaya katılmaya gönüllü 72 birey ile yürütülmüştür. Araştırma verileri Birey Tanıtıcı Özellikler Formu ve Yoga
Dönüşüm Etkisi Ölçeği (YDEÖ) ile toplanmıştır. Verilerin analizinde tanımlayıcı istatistikler (ortalama, standart sapma,
sayı, yüzde, ortanca, çeyrekler), Kruskal Wallis ve Mann-Whitney U testleri kullanılmıştır.
Bulgular: Araştırmaya katılan bireylerin yaş ortancası 34,5 yıl olup, çoğunluğunu kadın (%76,4) ve üniversite mezunu
(%68,1) olan bireyler oluşturmuştur. Bir saatten az süre ile pratikte bulunmanın, ileri düzey yoga uygulayıcısı olmanın, eğitici
sertifikasına sahip olmanın ve yoga dersi vermenin ölçek toplam puanını ve alt boyut puanlarını anlamlı olarak artırdığı
görülmüştür (p<0,05). Buna karşın, katılımcıların yaş, cinsiyet, medeni durum gibi sosyo-demografik özellikleri ölçek toplam
ve alt boyut puanlarında anlamlı bir farklılık oluşturmamıştır (p>0,05).
Sonuç: Araştırma sonuçlarından hareketle, yoga ile ilgili araştırma planlayan sağlık profesyonellerinin yoga yapan bireylerle
yoga öz-etkililik durumlarını değerlendirmeleri, öz-etkililiği etkileyebilecek başka parametrelerin incelenmesi ve yoga ilişkili
yaralanma durumu çalışmalar yapılması önerilmiştir.
Anahtar Kelimeler: Holistik sağlık, Öz-etkililik, Yoga, Zihin-beden uygulamaları.
