Investigation of Relationship Between Personality Characteristics and Leisure Time Involvement in Elite Athletes

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the personality characteristics of elite athletes and their leisure time involvement. The population of the research consists of athletes who are actively pursuing their careers in various sports. A participants group of 439 elite athletes, including 301 males and 138 females, was selected using a purposive sampling method. The data collection tools used in the study were the Personal Information Form, the Leisure Involvement Scale (LIS), and the Adjective-Based Personality Test (ABPT). Independent T-test was used for pairwise comparisons, and One-way anova was used for comparison of multiple variables. According to the LIS and ABPT scores, it was found that participants aged above 21 had higher total and sub-dimension scores on the LIS compared to those under 21. In the ABPT, women scored higher than men on the agreeableness subscale, while national athletes scored higher than non-national athletes in the subscales of responsibility, openness to experience, and total scores. Additionally, athletes with more years of sports experience had higher scores in the openness to experience and responsibility sub-dimensions compared to those with fewer years of experience. Moreover, a low-level positive correlation was found between the total and sub-dimension scores of the LIS and ABPT. These findings suggest there is a significant relationship between the personality characteristic of elite athletes and their leisure involvement.
