INVESTIGATION OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE LEVELS OF YOUNG ATHLETES IN ELITE TEAMS AGED 16-21

Awareness of emotional intelligence is seen as one of the impressive roles of the athlete in displaying his personal skills. Emotional intelligence is an important intelligence type for acquiring a place in the person's life. The ability of the person to recognize himself / herself, to communicate with the living things around him / her and to be able to notice emotions for the emergence. It is an important point for the sportsmen to own, be announced, be able to be recognized and directed. Emotional intelligence holds an important place at this point. This study was carried out in order to determine the emotional intelligence level of young athletes in elite teams aged 16-21. The sample of the study was 382 (n: 382 boys) young football players playing in the teams of Adana FC, Gaziantep FC, Gençlerbirliği FC, Kayseri FC, Konya FC and Ottoman FC U 21, U 19, U 17 and U 16 teams in the Turkish Super League. Schutte Scale of Emotional Intelligence test was used in this study. Data analysis was used SPSS 21 statistics software program. As a result of the study, there were significant difference in the emotional intelligence levels of young Footballers joined in this research, type of undergraduate school, educational level of father and place of residence. There were no difference in the emotional intelligence levels of young soccer players joined in this research, in terms of year of play and educational level of mother Considering the factors that affect performance in sports, it has been revealed in recent years that it is important not only to develop physical skills to have high performance but also to improve emotional skill performance of the athlete. Bu araştırma, genç yaştaki elit futbolcuların duygusal zekâ düzeylerini incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. This research was conducted to examine the levels of emotional intelligence of young elite soccer players. The sample of the research is composed of 382 (n: 382 male) young football players who play in Adana Spor, Gaziantep Spor, Gençlerbirliği, Kayseri Spor, Konya Spor and Ottoman Spor 21, U 19, U 17 and U 16 teams in the Turkish Super League. The Schutte Emotional Intelligence Scale developed by Schutte, Malouff, Hall, Haggerty, Cooper, Golden and Dornheim (1998), which was inspired by Salovey and Mayer's emotional intelligence model and composed of 33 items and 4 subscales, was used in the research to determine emotional intelligence levels of athletes. The scale consists of four sub-scales: emotional awareness and appraisal, regulation of emotion, empathic sensitivity and utilization of emotion. Turkish adaptation was made by Çakan and Akbaba Altun (2005). SPSS 21 package program was used for data analysis. Descriptive statistics frequency (f), percent (%) and Mann Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis H tests were used in the analysis of the data. The levels of emotional intelligence of young soccer players in the elite level were examined according to variables such as school type, education level of the father, education level of the mother, place of residence and year of play. A total of 407 soccer players between the ages of 16 and 21 participated in the survey voluntarily. After the post-recycling survey, 25 surveys that were found unsuitable were excluded from the scope of the research and the survey group was determined as 382 people in total. As a result of the reliability analysis performed on the research group, the Cronbach Alpha value was set at.95. The survey was conducted during the 1st season of the league season and the turn around time of the survey was 40 days. The questionnaire was applied during the placement of the researcher himself. The researcher intended to contribute to the credibility of explaining the necessary explanations and the main aim of the survey by explaining to the athletes face to face. Salovey et al. (2002) found that students with high levels of emotional intelligence tend to be less anxious, have higher self-esteem and use more strategies to solve problems. When the findings of our research are examined in terms of emotional intelligence and subdimensions according to the school type variable, it is seen that in the subscales of empathic sensitivity, emotional regulation / management and emotional use subscale of the players who have studied or learned in Vocational high schools and in the general average they have studied or seen at Sports high school, Anatolian high school and other high schools Have higher levels of emotional intelligence than soccer players. In the emotional awareness / evaluation sub-dimension, there was no statistically significant difference between the groups. It is observed that the soccer players who are trained in vocational high schools have a higher average than the soccer players who read in the other high school types due to the emotional intelligence which is called basic life skill. Similarly, Pektaş (2013) found that students studying arts and sports high school and other high school students' emotional intelligence levels have higher levels of emotional intelligence than vocational high school students. The results of both studies are similar in this respect. When the findings of our research were examined in terms of emotional intelligence and sub-dimensions according to the educational status of the father, it was determined that middle school-educated fathers had a higher level of emotional intelligence in the empathic sensitivity, emotional regulation / management and use of emotions subscales and overall average than primary, high school and university educated parents It was no statistically significant difference was found in the emotional awareness / evaluation sub-dimension. The study (Keskin, 2010) found that there was a significant relationship between the level of education of the father and emotional intelligence. The results of both studies are similar in this respect. Certel et all, (2011) and Yurdakavuştu (2012) found that there was no relationship between father's educational level and emotional intelligence. It is seen that these results obtained different results under the light. When the findings of our research were examined in terms of emotional intelligence and sub-dimensions according to mother's education level, it was determined that there was no statistically significant difference between the groups in all sub-dimensions of emotional intelligence of the players according to mother's education factor. When the studies on emotional intelligence and mother education were examined, Certel et al. (2011), Keskin (2010) and Yurdakavuştu (2012) university students did not have a meaningful difference between mother's education level and emotional intelligence levels. Similar results were obtained in this study. When the findings of our research are examined in terms of emotional intelligence and sub-dimensions depending on the place of residence, it is seen that the players staying with the family have a higher level of emotional intelligence than the soccer players staying in the club facilities in terms of emotional regulation / management and use of feelings. There was no statistically significant difference in empathic sensitivity, emotional awareness sub-dimensions and general average. Ayan et al (2017) stated that there is no relation between the place where students stay and the levels of emotional intelligence in their studies on sports science students in universities. When the findings of our study were examined in terms of emotional intelligence and sub-dimensions according to the year of playing, it was seen that there was no statistically significant difference between the groups in all sub-dimensions of the players' emotional intelligence according to the playing year variable. In support of research findings, Adiloğulları (2011) found that there was no relationship between the duration of playing in professional soccer players' clubs and the level of emotional intelligence in the doctoral thesis study.
