Türkiye'de Çift Kariyer Yolunda Öğrenci Sporcular: Eğitim mi Spor mu İkilemi?

Bu çalışmanın amacı Türk sporcuların eğitim kariyeri ve spor kariyeri olmak üzere çift kariyerlerini birlikte sürdürmede nasıl deneyimler yaşadıklarını incelemektir. Araştırma nitel araştırma yaklaşımında, yorumlayıcı paradigmada ve fenomenolojik desende tasarlanmıştır. Çalışma grubu amaçlı örnekleme yöntemlerinden ölçüt örnekleme yöntemine göre seçilmiştir. Araştırmada üniversite öğrenimine devam eden kendi branşında milli ya da en üst ligde yer alan öğrenci sporculardan 5 kadın ve 5 erkek olmak üzere 10 katılımcı yer almıştır. Veriler yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu kullanılarak toplanmıştır. Elde edilen verilerin analizinde içerik analizi yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada geçerliği sağlamak amacıyla inandırıcılık, aktarılabilirlik, güvenilebilirlik ve doğrulanabilirlik kriterleri temel alınmıştır. Güvenirliğin sağlanabilmesi için, görüşmelerin kayıt altına alınarak, bunların yazıya aktarılması, farklı araştırmacılar tarafından bireysel kodlama yapılması stratejileri kullanılmıştır. Yapılan analizler sonucunda kuramsal çerçeveye uygun olarak üç ana tema oluşturulmuştur. SBKK boyutlarına göre “Öz yeterlik: Başarı ruhumda var”, “Sonuç beklentileri: destek ve engeller”, “Kişisel hedefler: Akademik sporcular” temaları karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Sporcular yasal olarak desteklendiklerinde ve esnek düzenlemeler yapıldığında çift kariyerlerini daha kolay yönettiklerini belirtmişlerdir. Ebeveyn desteği sporcuların çift kariyerleri ile ilgili karar vermelerinde ve çift kariyerde zorluklarla karşılaştıkları zaman sosyal destek sağlamada önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Sporcular çift kariyerlerinde eğitim kariyerleri yerine spor kariyerlerini öncelikli olarak görürken, aktif sporculuk sonrası kariyerlerinde akademik olarak ilerlemeyi öncelikli hedef olarak görmektedirler. Çalışmada çift kariyer desteğinde, ülkemizdeki uygulamaların ve çift kariyer yapılarının geliştirilmesi gerektiği dikkat çekmiştir.

Content analysis method was used in the analysis of the obtained data. Validity in research credibility, transferability, reliability, and verifiability criteria are taken as basis in order to ensure reliability, the strategies of recording the interviews, translating them into writing, and individual coding by different researchers were used. As a result of the analyzes made, three main themes were formed in accordance with the theoretical framework. The theme created according to the SCCT dimension was “Self-efficacy: Success is in my soul”, “Outcome expectations: Support and obstacles”, “Personal goals: Academic athletes”. Athletes stated that they manage their double careers more easily when they are legally supported and flexible arrangements are made. Parental support plays an important role in athletes' decision making about their dual career and in providing social support when faced with difficulties in dual careers. While the athletes prioritize their sports careers over their educational careers in their dual careers, they have stated that academic progress is the primary goal in their careers after active sportsmanship. In the study, it was noted that the practices and dual career structures in our country should be improved in dual career support
