The purpose of this study was to examine time management skills and stress levels of physical education and sport school students according to some demographic variables and to determine the relationship between their time management skills and stress levels. The study was conducted on 283 physical education and sport school students (94 female and 189 male). Their ages ranged between 18 and 32 (M=22.09). In the study, the Time Management Inventory (Britton & Tesser, 1991)) and the Perceived Stress Scale (Cohen, Kamarck & Mermelstein, 1983) were administered on the participants as data collection tools. Descriptive statistics were performed on all of the variables. In the data analysis; t-test, one-way ANOVA, Tukey post-hoc test, correlation analysis and regression analysis were used. The female participants time management skills and stress levels were higher than the male participants. The number of years the participants spend at the university play more significant role in time management skills and perceived stress levels. Our findings demonstrated that the participants time management skills had important effects on determining their perceived stress levels. Additionally, whereas there was a positive correlation between the students academic success and their time management skills, there was a negative correlation between the students academic success and their perceived stress levels.
