Sporcuların Sosyal Zeka Düzeylerinin Karar Verme Üzerine Etkisi

Sosyal zekanın bireyler arasındaki ilişkileri arttırdığı ve aynı zamanda diğer insanlarla fikir alışverişinde bulunmanın karar verme becerilerini doğrudan etkileyeceği düşünüldüğünden çalışmamız, sporcularda sosyal zeka düzeyinin karar verme üzerindeki etkisini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmanın evrenini 2022 yılında Elazığ ilinde lisanslı sporcular oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmanın örneklemini tesadüfi yöntemle seçilen 812 sporcu oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmaya katılan sporcuların demografik özelliklerini belirlemek amacıyla kişisel bilgi formu (cinsiyet, yaş, spor branşı) ve sosyal zeka düzeylerini belirlemek için Tromso Sosyal Zeka Ölçeği (TSIS), Melbourne Karar Verme I Ölçeği karar verme düzeylerini belirlemek için Melbourne Karar Verme Anketi kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizi için SPSS 22 programı kullanıldı. Elazığ ilinde lisanslı sporcuların sosyal zeka düzeyleri ve karar verme düzeyleri ile cinsiyet ve branş türü değişkenleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark bulunmamıştır. Yaş değişkenine göre sosyal zeka ölçeği toplam puanları ile sosyal bilgi sürecinin alt boyut düzeyleri arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılıklar bulunmuştur. Araştırma bulgularına göre sosyal zeka ölçeği toplam puanı 66.01 ve karar verme ölçeği toplam puanı 9.66 ile ortalamanın üzerindedir. Sonuç olarak linear regression testine göre sosyal zeka düzeyi ile karar verme arasında pozitif ve anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu tespit edilmiştir.

The total score of the social intelligence scale is 66.01 and the decision-making scale's total score is higher than the average with 9.66 in line with the study findings.
