to watch the competitions in the stadiums. Considering this situation, it is aimed in our research to evaluate the
security measures taken in the stadiums from the perspective of the spectators.The universe of our research consists of fans in professional football league competitions in 2022-
2023. The sample group consists of a total of 1540 female (n=406) and male (n=1134) fans who were randomly
selected from the universe and who voluntarily agreed to participate in our research. The personal information
form created by the researchers and the "Safety in Sports Scale" were used as data collection tools to determine
the evaluation of the security measures taken in the stadiums from the perspective of the spectators. As a result
of the normality analysis of the scale and its sub-dimensions, it was seen that the significance values were greater
than p=0.05 and nonparametric analyses (Man Witney U Test - Kruskal Wallis H Test) were performed in the
analysis.When gender was analysed, there was a statistically significant difference in dimension 1 and
dimension 2, while there was no statistically significant difference in dimension 3, dimension 4 and SSI; when
marital status was analysed, there was a statistically significant difference in dimension 1, while there was no
statistically significant difference in dimension 2, dimension 3, dimension 4 and SSI, When the age variable is
analysed, it is seen that there is no statistically significant difference in dimension 1, while there is a statistically
significant difference in dimension 2, dimension 3, dimension 4 and SSI, when the education status variable is
analysed, a statistically significant difference is found in dimension 1, dimension 2, dimension 3, dimension 4
and SSI. In addition, when which team do you support is analysed, it is seen that there is no statistically
significant difference in dimension 1, dimension 2, dimension 4 and SSI, whereas there is a statistically
significant difference in dimension 3; according to the variable Do you have a season-pass, there is no
statistically significant difference in dimension 1, dimension 3 and SSI, whereas there is a statistically significant
difference in dimension 2 and dimension 4; Do you go to away competitions? When the variable is analysed,
there is a statistically significant difference in dimension 1, dimension 2, dimension 4 and SSI, while there is no
statistically significant difference in dimension 3, how would you define your spectatorship as a football
spectator? dimension 1, dimension 2, dimension 3, dimension 4 and SSI showed a statistically significant
difference, dimension 1, dimension 3 showed no statistically significant difference, dimension 2, dimension 4
and SSI showed a statistically significant difference, who do you go to the competitions in the stadium with?
When dimension 1, dimension 2, dimension 4 and SSI were analysed, a statistically significant difference was
found in dimension 1, dimension 2, dimension 3, dimension 4 and SSI, while no statistically significant
difference was found in dimension 3, and when dimension 1, dimension 2, dimension 3, dimension 4 and SSI
were analysed, a statistically significant difference was found.In our research, in dimension 1 of the scale sub-dimensions, gender, marital status, educational
status, do you go to away competitions, how would you define your spectatorship as a football spectator, who do
you think is responsible for the violence in stadiums, how often do you go to the stadium to watch competitions,
in dimension 2 of the scale sub-dimensions, gender, educational status, do you have a combine card? do you go
to away matches, how do you define your spectatorship as a football spectator, with whom do you go to matches,
who do you think is responsible for the violence in stadiums, how often do you go to the stadium to watch a
match, in dimension 3, age, education level, which team do you support, how do you define your spectatorship
as a football spectator? in dimension 4, age, educational level, do you have a combine card, do you go to away
matches, how do you define your spectatorship as a football spectator, who do you come to the matches in the
stadium with, who do you think is responsible for the violence in stadiums, how often do you go to the stadium
to watch a match? Statistical differences were found in the variables of age, education status, do you go to away
competitions, how do you define your spectatorship as a football spectator, how do you define your spectatorship
as a football spectator, who do you go to the competitions in the stadium with, who do you think is responsible
for the violence in the stadiums, how often do you go to the stadium to watch competitions?}, number={3}, publisher={Selçuk Üniversitesi}
