Rekabet anında sporcular gerek uyum, gerekse değişim talepleri karşısında anlık olarak duygusal değişim ve stres yaşamaktadır. Dolayısıyla sporcular, rekabet ederken stres anında saldırganlık ve öfkelerini kontrol altına alabilmek üzere bilişsel kontrol ve bilişsel esneklik gibi becerilere ihtiyaç duymaktadırlar. Buradan hareketle araştırmanın amacı sporda saldırganlık ve öfkede duyular üzerinde bilişsel kontrol, değerlendirme ve başa çıkma esnekliğinin rolünü belirlemek ve bazı değişkenlere göre ilişkilerini incelemektir. Araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 205 kadın (%46,4), 237’si erkek (%53,6) olmak üzere toplam 442 sporcu öğrenci oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada “Sporda Saldırganlık ve Öfke Ölçeği” ve “Bilişsel Kontrol ve Esneklik Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizi için betimsel istatistik, çoklu doğrusal regresyon ve MANOVA testi kullanılmıştır. Araştırma bulgularında erkeklerde saldırganlık ortalamalarının yüksek olduğu, alkol ve sigara kullanan sporcu öğrencilerde öfke ve saldırganlık ortalamalarının yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Araştırmanın diğer önemli bir sonucu ise duyular üzerinde bilişsel kontrol ve değerlendirme ve başa çıkma esnekliği sporda saldırganlık ve öfkede toplam varyansın %17’sini açıkladığıdır. Özellikle duyular üzerinde bilişsel kontrolün sporda saldırganlık ve öfkeyi belirlemede etkisinin daha yüksek olduğu söylenebilir.

The Predictive Role Of Cognitive Flexibility And Cognitive Control On Aggression and Anger İn Sports

Öz

At the time of competition, athletes experience instant emotional change and stress in the face of both adaptation and change demands. Therefore, athletes need skills such as cognitive control and cognitive flexibility to control their aggression and anger during stress while competing. From this point of view, the research aims to determine the role of cognitive control over emotions, evaluation and coping flexibility in aggression and anger in sports and to examine their relationships according to some variables. The study group of the research consists of a total of 442 athletes, 205 females (46.4%) and 237 males (53.6%). "Competitive Aggressiveness and Anger Scale" and "Cognitive Control and Flexibility Scale" were used in the research. Descriptive statistics, MANOVA Test and Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) were used for data analysis. In the findings of the research, it was seen that the aggression mean scores of males were high, and anger and aggression mean scores were higher in athletes who smokes and used alcohol. Another important result of the study is that cognitive control over emotions and evaluation and coping flexibility explain 17% of the total variance in aggression and anger in sports. In particular, it can be said that cognitive control over emotions has a higher effect on determining aggression and anger in sports.
