Özet:

The aim of this study is to examine the decision making styles of secondary school students who have participated and have not participated in sports competitions among schools. The research was carried out on 313 students who attended and did not participate in school sports in different secondary education institutions. "General Information Form" and "Decision Making Styles Scale (DMSS)" were used to collect data in the research. In the analysis of the data, independent samples t-test was conducted to determine whether there was a significant difference between the groups in the variables of participation in gender and inter-school sports competitions. The significance level was determined as p<,05 in the study. As a result of our study, it was found that the intuitive decision-making styles of the girls were significantly higher than the male students, while there was no statistically significant difference between the genders in DMS mean scores and Rational DMS, Dependent DMS, Avoidant DMS, and Instant DMS subscales. Also, the rational decision-making styles of the students participating in sports competitions between schools were found to be significantly higher than those who did not. It was determined that there was no statistically significant difference in the average scores of DMS and Intuitive DMS, Dependent DMS, Avoiding DMS and Instant DMS sub-dimensions of the students who participated and did not participate in sports competitions between schools.
