The Mediating Role of Intolerance of Uncertainty in the Effect of Job Finding Anxiety on Academic Resilience Among Sports Sciences Students

Öz

This study was conducted to examine the mediating role of intolerance of uncertainty in the effect of job search anxiety on academic perseverance among students in the Faculty of Sports Sciences. The research was designed within the framework of the correlational survey model, one of the quantitative research approaches, and a total of 340 students participated in the study, including 112 female and 228 male students. The Sport Science Students' Job Search Anxiety Scale, Academic Perseverance Scale, and Intolerance of Uncertainty Scale were used in the data collection process. Before proceeding to the analyses, missing data and outlier checks were performed on the data; normality assumptions and descriptive statistics were evaluated. To test the validity of the measurement model, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) was performed using the AMOS 21 program, and the goodness-of-fit indices for the scales were examined. Pearson correlation analysis was applied to determine the relationships between variables; Bootstrap-based regression analyses were used to test mediating effects. In this context, analyses were conducted using SPSS 25 software and the PROCESS Macro (Model 4) developed by Hayes (2022). The findings revealed that there was no significant relationship between job search anxiety and academic perseverance; however, there were positive and low-level significant relationships between intolerance of uncertainty and academic perseverance, and between intolerance of uncertainty and job search anxiety. Finally, it was determined that intolerance of uncertainty played a mediating role in the effect of job search anxiety on academic perseverance.
