Üniversite Öğrencilerinde Serbest Zamanda Sıkılma Algısı Alkol Kullanma Nedenlerinin Belirleyicisi midir?

Bu araştırmanın amacı, üniversite öğrencilerinde serbest zamanda sıkılma algısının alkol kullanma nedenlerini belirlemedeki rolünün araştırılması ve cinsiyet açısından bu değişkenlerin farklılaşıp farklılaşmadığının incelenmesidir. Çalışmaya Ankara ilinde bulunan ve çeşitli üniversitelerde beden eğitimi ve spor alanında öğrenimini sürdüren 78 kadın ve 151 erkek toplam 229 öğrenci ( yaş=22.45±6.10 ve yaş=23.10±9.12) gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak, Serbest Zamanda Sıkılma Algısı Ölçeği (Kara, Gürbüz ve Öncü, 2014) ve İçme Nedenleri Anketi Gözden Geçirilmiş Formu (Topuz, 2004) kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada öne sürülen hipotezleri test etmek için t-testi ve çoklu regresyon analizi uygulanmıştır. Bulgular, sıkılma alt boyutu ile eğlenme (β=0.13), başa çıkma (β=0.34), uyum sağlama (β=0.46) ve sosyalleşme (β=0.24) alt boyutları arasındaki ilişkinin pozitif olduğunu göstermiştir (p<0.01). Ayrıca bulgular katılımcıların ölçeklerden aldıkları puanlara göre cinsiyete göre anlamlı ilişkiler olduğunu göstermektedir. Çalışmanın sonuçları literatürdeki bulgular bağlamında tartışılmıştır.
