The universe of the study consists of 1030 students studying in daytime and evening education in the departments of Physical Education and Sports Teaching, Sport Management, Coaching Education, and Recreation of the Faculty of Sport Sciences, Selcuk University, in Spring Semester in the educational year of 2015-2016.
