Directing the future with the power of sport: A study on leadership orientations and career dedication of university students

Abstract

The aim of this research is to examine the relationship between leadership orientations and proactive career dedication levels of sport sciences students by examining their leadership orientations and proactive career dedication levels in terms of different variables. Relational research model, one of the quantitative research methods, was used in the study. A total of 289 students studying at Selçuk University Faculty of Sport Sciences participated in the study. Demographic information form, “Multifaceted Leadership Orientations Scale (MLAS)” and “Proactive Career Dedication Behaviours Scale” were used as data collection tools. Before the data analysis, normality analysis was performed and since the data had normal distribution, t-test and Pearson correlation analysis were performed from parametric tests. Cronbah's Alpha analysis was applied to determine the internal consistency values of the data. SPSS 24.00 package programme was used for data analysis. Approval for this study was obtained from Selcuk University, Faculty of Sport Sciences, Non-Interventional Clinical Research Ethics Committee. As a result, it was determined that gender and age had no effect on leadership orientation and proactive career dedication, and that the leadership orientation levels and career dedication behaviours of licensed sportsmen were higher. In addition, while there was no significant difference between sport type and leadership orientation and career dedication, there was a significant positive relationship between sport age and leadership orientation and career behaviour. Finally, a significant positive relationship was found between leadership orientation and proactive career dedication behaviours.
