BEDEN EĞİTİMİ VE SPOR ALANINDA YAPILAN GÖRME ENGELLİLERE YÖNELİK ARAŞTIRMALARIN SİSTEMATİK BİR ŞEKİLDE İNCELENMESİ

Bu çalışmanın amacı uluslararası dergilerde yayımlanan beden eğitimi ya da spor alanındaki görme engellilere yönelik araştırmaların sistematik bir şekilde incelenmesidir. Bu amaçla Web of Science Core Collection veritabanındaki tüm indekslerde yayımlanmış araştırmalara ait verilere ulaşılmıştır. Elde edilen veriler “Excel” ve “txt” formatlarında indirilerek analiz edilmiştir. Analizlerde yapılan araştırmaların yıllara göre sayısal anlamda ve atıf satısına göre değişimleri ile birlikte, en önde gelen yazarlar, dergiler, üniversiteler ve ülkeler doküman sayısı, atıf sayısı ve toplam bağlantı güçlerine göre incelenmiştir. Ayrıca en çok atıf alan araştırmalara ait bazı istatistiksel bilgiler ve en çok kullanılan anahtar kelimelerin ilişkisel haritası sunulmuştur. Bu alanda ilk araştırmanın 1995, en fazla araştırmanın ise 2019 yılında yapıldığı belirlenmiştir. En çok atıf alan yazarın Justin Haegele A. isimli yazar olduğu, en çok atıf alan üniversitenin Old Dominion Üniversitesi olduğu ve son olarak en çok atıf alan ülkenin Amerika Birleşik Devletleri olduğu görülmüştür. Bu alanda öne çıkan derginin Adapted Physical Activity Quarterly olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak; görme engellilerin daha sağlıklı ve zinde olmaları, akranlarıyla birlikte beden eğitimi derslerine katılabilmeleri, görme yetersizliklerine rağmen fırsat eşitliğine sahip olmalarını konu edinen ve burada ortaya çıkan engelleri ortadan kaldıracak çözümler üreten araştırmaların alanyazında olduğu görülmüştür.

A SYSTEMATIC INVESTIGATION OF RESEARCH ON THE VISUAL IMPAIRMENTS IN THE FIELD OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND SPORTS

The aim of this study is to systematically examine the researches on the visually impaired in the field of physical education or sports published in international journals. For this purpose, the data of the researches published in all indexes in the Web of Science Core Collection database were accessed. The obtained data were analyzed by downloading in “Excel” and “txt” formats. The most prominent authors, journals, universities and countries were examined according to the number of documents, number of citations and total link strength, along with the changes in the studies made in the analyzes according to the years in numerical terms and according to the number of citations. In addition, some statistical information about the most cited studies and a relational map of the most used keywords are presented. It was determined that the first research in this area was done in 1995, and the most research in 2019. It was seen that the most cited author was Justin Haegele A., the most cited university was Old Dominion University, and lastly, the most cited country was the United States of America. It has been determined that the prominent journal in this field is Adapted Physical Activity Quarterly. As a result; It has been observed that there are studies in the literature that focus on the visually impaired being healthier and fitter, participating in physical education classes with their peers, having equal opportunities despite their visual impairment, and producing solutions to remove the obstacles that arise here.
