Takım Uyumu ve Takım Başarısı Arasındaki İlişki: Üniversite Hentbol 2. Lig Takımları Örneği

Öz

Çalışma aynı lig düzeyinde (2. lig) rekabetçi hentbol takımlarının, takım/grup uyumu (group cohesion) düzeyine göre başarı sıralamasını değerlendirmek ve takım uyumu ile başarı sıralaması arasındaki ilişkiyi belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Takım uyumu Carron ve ark. (1985) tarafından geliştirilen, Türk sporcularına Unutmaz ve ark (2014) tarafından uyarlanan Takım Birlikteliği Envanteri (Group Environment Questinnaire-GEQ) ile belirlenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda, müsabakada 1. olan takımlar ile diğer takımların görev uyumu düzeyi benzerdir. Müsabakayı 1. ve 2. olarak tamamlayan takımların sosyal uyum düzeyleri en düşük, sonuncu olarak tamamlayan takımların en yüksektir. Erkek takımlarının görev uyumu düzeyi kadın takımlarından yüksektir. Ayrıca sosyal uyum ile takım başarısı arasında, görev uyumu ile cinsiyet arasında ilişki belirlenmiştir. Sonuç olarak takımların başarılı sıralamasında üst noktalara çıkmaları için görev uyumunun gerekli olmakla birlikte yeterli olmadığı, en alt lig düzeyindeki takımlarda yüksek sosyal uyumun başarısızlığa neden olabileceği ve erkeklerin kazanmak için kadınlardan daha fazla görev uyumu sergiledikleri belirlenmiştir.

The Relationship Between Group Cohesion and Team Achievement: The Case of University Handball 2. League Teams

Öz

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the success ranking of competitive handball teams at the same league level (2nd league) according to the group cohesion level and to determine the relationship between success ranking and group cohesion. Group cohesion was determined according to the Team Environment Questinnaire (GEQ), which was developed by Carron et al. (1985), and adapted to Turkish athletes by Unutmaz et al. (2011). As a result of the research, task cohesion levels of the teams that came first in the competition and the other teams are similar. The task cohesion level of men's teams is higher than women's teams. In addition, the relationship between social cohesion and team success, and between task cohesion and gender were analyzed. As a result, it has been concluded that although task cohesion is necessary, it is not enough to achieve top positions, high social cohesion in the teams in the lowest league may cause failure and men exhibit more task cohesion than women in order to win.
