Abstract:

This study was conducted with the aim of studying the attitudes of students studying at the Department of Sports Management in terms of various variables. The universe of the study, Karabük University, Hasan Doğan Body Education and Sports High School, Sports Management Department, formed a total of 378 people who studied in 2018, while the sampling formed 224 people who agreed to participate in the study. The personal information form created by the researcher as a data collection tool and the "Sports-oriented attitude scale" developed by Shentürk (2014) were used. There are 3 sub-dimensions of the 5 likert type scale, which question the levels of sport interest, living with sport and doing active sport. In the analysis of the data, the SPSS package program was used. For the normality of the data, the scaviness and curtosis values were checked, the data were normally distributed. For these normal distribution data, independent t test and one-way ANOVA test were used. In the study, the significance level was considered p<0,05. According to the findings, there was a significant difference in the level of life with sport between students who do sports one day a week and students who do sports three and five days (F: 4,284; p: 0,002). There was a significant difference in the level of active sporting between one-day athletes and three-and-five-day athletes (F: 4,956; p: 0,002). There was a significant difference between those in their family with a licensed athlete and those who were not interested in sport (t: 2,83, p: 0.005). There was a significant difference between the level of active sporting of those who have a licensed athlete in their family and those who do not (t: 1,99, p: 0,04). There was no significant difference between the other independent variables reviewed and the scale score average. As a result, the average attitude of students towards sport was low, and the level of interest of women students in sport was higher than the level of interest of men. As the number of days of doing sports per week increases, the levels of living with sports and active sports are also increasing. Athletes who are licensed in their family have gone out of those who do active sports and do not have a high level of interest in sports.
