Çalışmanın amacı; 13–20 yaş arası spor yapan ve yapmayan bireylerin benlik saygısı puanları arasında herhangi bir fark olup olmadığının belirlenmesi ile takım sporu ve bireysel spor yapan bireyler ile spor yapmayan bireylerin benlik saygısı puanları arasında bir fark olup olmadığının ortaya konulmasıdır. Ayrıca; yaş grupları, cinsiyet ve spor yapma yaşı gibi değişkenlere göre de benlik saygısı puanları incelenerek farkların sunulmasıdır. Çalışma grubunu; Ankara, İstanbul ve Sakarya illerinde spor yapan ve yapmayan 13 – 20 yaş arasındaki 304 birey oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada bireylerin benlik saygısı puanlarını ölçmek için Rosenberg’in Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği’nin alt ölçeklerinden olan Benlik Saygısı Ölçeği kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada elde edilen veriler SPSS paket programıyla analiz edilmiştir.

Bireysel ve takım sporu yapanlar ile spor yapmayan bireylerin benlik saygısı puanlarının karşılaştırılması

The purpose of the study was to determine whether there is any difference between self esteem scores of individuals who engaged in individual & team sports and non-athletes. Furthermore, self-esteem scores associated with age group, gender and years of playing experience variables were examined to determine the differences. Focus group consists of 304 athletes & non-athletes of 13–20 years old individuals living in Ankara, Istanbul and Sakarya. Rosenberg's self-esteem scale was used to measure the self-esteem scores of individuals. The research data were analyzed by SPSS software. According to the results of the study, there was no significant difference between self-esteem scores of athletes and non- athletes. The same result was obtained for individual & team sport athletes and non-athletes, too. In addition, no statistically significant difference was found according to gender variable. The correlation of self-esteem scores of individuals between 13–16 and 17–20 years old was found to be statistically significant (p=0.000, p<0.05). Furthermore, the years of playing experience variable showed significant difference between group-1 (1-5 years of playing experience; X =19.23) and group-3 (10-14 years of playing experience; X=21.73) in favor of group-3; as well as between group-2 (6-9 years of playing experience; X=19.15) and group-3 (10-14 years of playing experience; X=21.73), also in favor of group-3.
