    (2017) Çon, Musa; Acar, Kürşat; Cankaya, Soner; Tasmektepligil, Mehmet Yalçın
    The aim of this study is to evaluate problem-solving skills of female futsal teams that compete in the Futsal League of Turkish Universities Sports Federation in terms of some socio-demographic variables. In total, 144 students from female futsal teams of 10 universities competing in the Futsal League of Turkish Universities Sports Federation voluntarily took part in this study. In the study, “Problem-Solving Inventory” that was developed by Heppner & Petersen was used. With this inventory, such sub-dimensions of the participants as “reliance on problem-solving skill”, “approach-avoidance” and “self-control” were analysed. In the statistical analysis of the obtained data during the research study, differences have been revealed by using one-way analysis of variance (One-Way ANOVA). And in the comparison of the averages of groups, Tukey HSD multiple comparison test was used. Research findings revealed that there are statistically significant differences between the points gained from the sub-dimensions of “reliance on problem-solving skill” and “approach-avoidance” with respect to the participants’ sporting age and the attended school; “reliance on problem-solving skill” with regard to father’s educational background; “approach-avoidance” with respect to income level (P<0.05). As a result, it is understood that such variables as sporting age, father’s educational background, income level and the attended university have important effects on individuals, and it is seen that individual’s level of solving problems increases as the sporting age increases. Within this scope, individuals are advised to start doing sports at early ages in order for them to develop their problem-solving skills

    The Effect of Participation in Recreational Activities on Students' Self-Confidence Levels bef ore and af ter TEOG Exam
    (Sociedad Revista de Psicologia del Deporte, 2024) Aksoy, Yener; Cankaya, Soner; Barut, Yasar; Caloglu, Mert; Selcuk, Mustafa Yasin; Karakas, Fatih; Ermis, Aydan
    The aim of this study is to investigate changes in the self-confidence levels of 8th grade students before and after the TEOG exam, a high school entrance exam administered by the Ministry of Education in Turkey. The exam, which evaluates students in core academie subjects, plays a crucial role in determining eligibility for Anatolian and Science High Schools, creating significant pressure on students due to its importance for their academie success and future career planning. The sample group of the research consists of 963 8th grade students. To collect data, the "Piers-Harris Self-Concept Scale" was used. The study analyzed whether the self-confidence scores of 8th grade students before and after the TEOG exam differed according to gender, number of siblings, and participation in physical activity, using repeated measures ANOVA. The results revealed that students who participated in recreational activities had higher self-confidence levels both before and after the exam compared to those who did not. Additionally, male students had higher self-confidence levels than female students both before and after the exam. The findings suggest that students' withdrawal from recreational and physical activities during exam periods negatively impacts their self-confidence. Therefore, it is important to encourage students to engage in physical and recreational activities to reduce their digital addiction during their free time and to help maintain their self-confidence at optimal levels. © 2024 Sociedad Revista de Psicologia del Deporte.
