Deniz kazalarında insan faktörünü tetikleyen gemiadamlarının sosyal izolasyonu, gemi ortamında önemli bir sorun oluşturmaktadır. Duygusal yetkinlikler ve hayattan duyulan memnuniyet, sosyal izolasyonun etkilerini azaltabilir. Serbest zaman faaliyetlerine katılım, bireysel duygusal zekayı artırabilir, fiziksel ve zihinsel sağlığın yanı sıra gelişmiş bir sosyal etkileşimi sağlayabilir ve yaşam memnuniyeti üretebilir. Bu çalışmanın amacı, gemiadamlarını serbest zaman katılımlarına göre sınıflandırmak ve yapısal eşitlik modellemesi ile serbest zaman tatmini, yaşam tatmini ve duygusal zeka açısından karşılaştırmaktır. Gemiadamlarına eğlence olanakları sağlanması ve ciddi olarak serbest zaman etkinliklerine katılımlarının desteklenmesi, duygusal zekalarını güçlendirerek ve yaşam memnuniyetlerini arttırarak maruz kaldıkları sosyal izolasyonun etkisini azaltabilir.

A QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS ON LEISURE PARTICIPATION OF TURKISH SEAFARERS BY STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELING

Öz

Social isolation of the seafarers - which induces human factor in marine accidents - is an important problem driver in the ship environment. Emotional competencies and satisfaction with life are able to reduce effects of social isolation. Ordinary participation in leisure activities can enhance individual emotional intelligence, provide physical and mental health as well as an improved social interaction and produce life satisfaction. The aim of this study is to classify seafarers based on their leisure participation level, and to compare them each other in terms of leisure satisfaction, life satisfaction and emotional intelligence by structural equation modeling. Providing leisure facilities for seafarers and supporting them to join leisure activates as serious participants can eliminate negative effects of social isolation by enhancing the emotional intelligence and producing life satisfaction.
