Parametric analyses were conducted on research data using SPSS 22.0 package program. "Pearson's correlation analysis" was conducted to identify the level and the direction of relationships between variables. A significant difference was found in opinions of physical education and sports teacher candidates in terms of gender, grade, national athlete, and income variables (p < 0.05). In the correlation analysis, it was found that there was a weak and positive relationship of teacher candidates' expectations to the following sub-dimensions: "Task-Oriented Anxiety" (r = 0.16; p < 0.01), "Student/Communication-Oriented Anxiety" (r = 0.23; p < 0.01), and "Assignment-Oriented Anxiety" (r = 0.19; p < 0.01).
