University, Mehmet Akif Ersoy University, Uludağ University, and Gazi

of the Turkish society all together and its sampling group consists of the
female students studying at those universities.
The data were obtained from written sources and by
means of the questionnaire method. A questionnaire oriented to the objective
has been developed. The understandability of the questionnaire as well as the
validity and reliability of its scope were ensured. The questionnaire’s
CronbachAlpha reliability coefficient was found as 0,60. The coefficient is a
valid coefficient according to the researchers as well. The questionnaires were
filled in through one-to-one discussions in the sampling group by means of the random
sampling method. Total 828 women, being 538 doing sports and 290 not doing
sports, took part in the study in its state mentioned above.
The data obtained were transferred to the computer
environment for statistical transaction. As the statistical process, the
Chi-Square test processes were conducted for identifying the frequency, %,
Crosstab, and differences. In the determination of the differences, 0,05 was
accepted as the level of significance.
Upon the assessment of the data obtained, it was determined
that the factors affecting women’s
participation in sportive events are religious reasons, family pressure,
government policy, the fact the some
branches of sports are not suitable for the physical properties of women, the
fact that sportive events inflict damage on their beauties, presence of no
suitable areas and venues to perform sports, and the inability of sports
culture to take place within the society etc. and that significant differences are present at
the 0,05 statistical significance level in the views of the women doing sports
and not doing sports in regards to some questions.
We can conclude that there are religious, familial,
political, physiological, cultural, and spatial factors affecting the
participation of women in sportive events.
