Araştırma güreş ve halter sporu ile uğraşan sporcuların sağlıklarını korumalarına yönelik edindikleri, kişisel hijyen alışkanlıkları ile öz bakım uygulamalarını ve çalışma ortamlarının temizliğine ilişkin görüşlerini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Araştırma tanımlayıcı ve kesitsel tipte olup, evrenini Türkiye’nin yedi coğrafi bölgesinde bulunan güreş ve halter spor dallarıyla uğraşan sporcular oluşturmuştur. Araştırmanın örneklem grubunu ise rastgele (random) örneklem yöntemiyle seçilen ve araştırmaya katılmayı kabul eden 149 güreşci ve 141 halterci olmak üzere toplam 290 sporcu oluşturmuştur. Veriler sporculardan yüz yüze anket yöntemiyle toplanmıştır. Anket kişisel bilgilere ait altı soru ile kişisel hijyen alışkanlıklarına ve özbakım uygulamalarına ait 18 soru olmak üzere toplam 24 sorudan oluşmaktadır. Anketin kapsam geçerliliği ve güvenirliği test edilmiştir. Cronbach’s güvenirlik katsayısı 0,69 bulunmuştur. Elde edilen veriler bilgisayar ortamında kodlandıktan sonra istatistik olarak frekans (f), yüzde (%), çapraz tablo (Croostab), farklılıkları test etmek içinde ki-kare (X2) işlemleri uygulanmıştır. İşlem sonucunda her soru için (%) dağılımları ve görüşler arası farklılıkları tespit için % 95 güven aralığında değerlendirilip P< 0,05 değeri anlamlı kabul edilmiştir. Elde edilen verilerin değerlendirilmesinde, sporcuların genel olarak hijyen ve öz bakımlarına önem verdikleri, ancak bayan sporcular ile erkek sporcular arasında istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir farkın olduğu, bayan sporcuların erkeklere göre hijyen ve öz bakımlarına daha çok dikkat ettikleri tespit edilmiştir (P

The aim of this research is to define the opinions of sportsmen, who are interested in wrestling and weight lifting, concerning the individual hygiene routine and self-care methods and the cleanness of the places in which they are practising. The type of the research is descriptive and cross-sectional and the population of the research is composed of sportsmen who are interested in wrestling and weight lifting in 7 regions of Turkey. The sample group of the research is composed of 290 sportsmen (149 wrestler and 141 weight lifters ) who are selected with random sampling method and who accepted to take part in the research. .The data of the research has been obtained by face-to-face questionnaire method. The questionnaire is composed of 24 questions 6 of which are to obtain individual information and 18 of which are to obtain information about their individual hygiene routine and self-care methods. The comprehensibility and content validity of the questionnaire has been tested. The Cronbach’s reliability coefficient has been found out as 0,69 The data obtained were computerized and then put through statistic operation. As a statistical operation frequency (f) and percentage (%), Cross table (Croostab) and in order to test the differences X-square (X2) were applied. After the operation the percentage dispersion of each question was evaluated on 95 % confidence interval and the value P< 0,05 has been accepted as meaningful. When the data obtained was evaluated, it was defined that the sportsmen generally give importance to hygiene and self-care however, there is statistically a meaningful difference between the female and male sportsmen and that female sportsmen take more care of hygiene and self-care (P<0,05). It was also defined that in the sports clubs where the participants have training, generally hot water is available but their training environment is not hygienic enough. As a result we can say that the sportsmen generally take care of individual hygiene and selfcare however, their training environment is not hygienic enough for their health.
