Öz

Bu çalışmanın amacı, altı Türk milli oyuncunun ideal ve ideal olmayan imajını ve karate sporcularının bilişsel temsillerini araştırmaktır. Bu çalışma, Beden Eğitimi ve Spor Anabilim dalına devam eden ulusal ve uluslararası turnuvalarda başarılı olmuş altı genç yetişkin elit karate sporcusu ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu çalışmanın verileri yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniği olan repertuar ağı ile toplanmıştır. Her katılımcının öz kimlik grafiği elde edilmiş ve repertuar ağı verilerine dayalı olarak analiz edilmiştir. Bulgular, bir katılımcı hariç tüm katılımcıların kişisel ve sosyal spor kimliklerinin olumlu olduğunu göstermektedir. Araştırmada benlik değeri yüksek olan katılımcıların kendilerini, ideal benliği ve sosyal benliği olumlu kişisel kurgularla karate oyuncusu olarak tanımladıkları bulunmuştur. Sonuç olarak bu çalışma sporcuların sporla ilişkili benlik saygıları, kişisel ve sosyal spor kimliklerinin ortaya konmasında öz-kimlik grafiğinin işlevsel bilgi vereceğini göstermektedir. Bu çalışma Türkiye’de ulusal ve uluslararası turnuvalarda başarı göstermiş olan genç yetişkin elit karateciler üzerinde yürütülmüştür; ileride yapılacak araştırmalarla amatör, minik ve junior karatecilerin kişisel ve sosyal spor kimlikleri öz-kimlik grafiği aracılığıyla ortaya konabilir.
