ÜNİLİG’de Yarışan Sporcuların Müsabaka Öncesi Zihinsel Hazır Oluş ve Duygu İfadelerinin Çeşitli Değişkenler Açısından İncelenmesi

Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı Üniversiteler Spor Liginde farklı branşlarda yarışan sporcularının müsabaka öncesi zihinsel hazır oluş ve duygu ifadelerinin çeşitli değişkenler açısından incelenmesidir. Nicel araştırma modeline göz önüne alınarak tasarlanan bu çalışmaya 238 erkek, 197 kadın katılımcı olmak üzere toplam 435 sporcu katılmıştır. Araştırmada kullanılan veri toplama araçları üç bölümden oluşmaktadır. Birinci bölümde katılımcıların demografik özellikleri belirlemek için “Kişisel Bilgi Formu”, ikinci bölümde “Zihinsel Hazır Oluş Ölçeği”, üçüncü bölümde ise “Spor Duygu Ölçeği” kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen veriler, frekans analizi, t-testi ve korelasyon analizi yapılarak incelenmiştir. Cinsiyete göre kadın sporcuların zihinsel hazır oluş durumlarının odaklanma ve motivasyon alt boyutlarında, erkek sporcuların ise ilgi alt boyu-tunda anlamlı derecede farka rastlanmıştır. Milli sporcu durumu değişkenine göre, zihinsel hazır olma durumunun milli sporcuların, milli olmayan sporculara göre anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu görülmüştür. Ayrıca spor türü değişkenine göre, zihinsel hazır oluş durumlarının, odaklanma ve motivasyon alt boyutlarında takım sporu yapanların bireysel spor yapanlara göre anlamlı düzeyde yüksek olduğu saptanmıştır. Her ne kadar ilişkisel bir sonuç olduğu için nedensel bir çıkarım yapılamasa da mevcut araştırmadaki sporcularda müsabaka öncesi zihinsel hazır oluş düzeyi arttıkça kaygı, keyifsizlik ve öfke azalırken; mutluluk ve coşku artmıştır.

Investigation of Pre-Competition Mental Readiness and Emotional Status of Athletes Competing in the University League in Terms of Various Variables

Abstract

The aim of this study is to examine the mental readiness and emotional states of the athletes competing in various branches in the Universities Sports League in terms of various variables. A total of 435 athletes, 238 men and 197 women, participated in the study, in which the quantitative research model was used. The data collection tools used in the research consisted of three parts. In the first part, "Background questionnaire" was used to determine the demographic characteristics of the participants, "Mental Readiness Scale" in the second part, and "Sports Emotion Scale" in the third part. The data obtained in the research were analysed by frequency analysis, test, t-test and correlation analysis. According to gender, a significant difference was found in the focus and motivation subdimensions of the mental readiness of female athletes and in the interest subdimension of male athletes. According to the national athlete status variable, it was seen that the mental readiness of national athletes was significantly higher than that of nonnational athletes. In addition, according to the type of sport variable, it was found that the mental readiness of team athletes was significantly higher than individual athletes in the subdimensions of focus and motivation. Although a causal inference cannot be made because it is a correlational result, as the level of precompetition mental readiness increased in the athletes in the current study, anxiety, malaise and anger decreased, while happiness and enthusiasm increased
