Abstract:

Purpose: Our study was conducted with the aim of studying the levels of injury anxiety of male athletes who are active in the Mardin province with different variables. Materials and Methods: The study included a total of 453 athletes between 18 and 26 years of age. The research was developed by Rex and Metzler (2016) to collect the data of the study, Jazz and so on. (2019) has been used by the "Sports Injury Worry Scale" adapted to Turkey. The obtained data were used by the Mann-Whitney U, Kruskal-Wallis H and Tamhane's T2 tests with the SPSS 25 program. Results: Athletes' sports injuries worries levels are compared by variables; age-by-age ZAK, training status HKUK, sporting level YKK and AÇK, sporting year-by-age ZAK and AÇK, weekly training number YKK, ZAK and AÇK and experienced disability period-by-age YKK, AÇK and YYK have significant differences in the lower dimensions (p<0,05). Result: As a result, we consider that athletes’ age, training status, level of exercise, year of concern for sport, weekly training number and the time of disability they experience are causing differences over some subdimensions of their injuries concerns and therefore athletes should be informed about these attitudes, and even that it would be useful for athletes to work together with athletes and sports psychologists on the elimination of these attitudes.
