Aktivite Bağlılığının Yaşam Tatmini ve Yaşam Kalitesi Üzerine Etkisi: Bisiklet Kullanıcılarına Yönelik Bir Araştırma

Bu araştırma bisiklet sürme aktivitesine katılan bireylerdeki aktiviteye yönelik bağlılıklarının aktivite sonrası yaşam tatmini ve genel yaşam kalitelerini belirlemek amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Amaca bağlı olarak Ankara Eymir Gölü’nde bisiklet sürme aktivitesine katılan 421 kişi üzerinde anket uygulaması gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları Smart PLS programında analiz edilmiş ve aktiviteye yönelik duygusal, fonksiyonel ve tavsiye edici bağlılık boyutlarının aktivite sonrası yaşam tatmini üzerinde olumlu yönde etkisinin olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca aktivite sonrası yaşam tatmini bireylerin genel yaşam kalitesini de önemli ölçüde arttırdığı gözlemlenmiştir. Araştırma sonuçları turistik destinasyon yöneticilerine, yerel yönetimlere ve alanyazında çalışan akademisyenlere önemli katkılar sunmaktadır.
