Abstract:

 


The aim
of this research is to compare sub-dimensions of courage scale in sports which
are competence-proficiency, determination, boldness, taking risk and being
self-sacrificing in sports according to various demographic values of boxers
participating in senior national team selections held in Eastern Anatolia.
Sample group of the study consists of 61 boxers participating in national team
selections. In the research, personal information form for participants and
scale of courage in sports developed by Konter and Johan (11) were used. Boxers' ages, types of
residences where they live, educational status, occupations of their parents,
income levels, sport ages and athlete status were compared with the
sub-dimensions of the scale. SPSS 22.0 Windows program was used to analyze data
obtained. As a result of normality tests, it was determined that the data were
not distributed normally. Because of this reason, while non-parametric Kruskal
Wallis H test was used in the study, Mann Whitney U test was used to compare
sub-dimension scores of scale according to mother's educational status.
Significance level was accepted as <0,05. As a result, for boxers
participating in the selection, there was no significant difference between
sub-dimensions of courage scale in sports and their ages, types of residences
where they live, educational status, occupations of their parents, income
levels, sport ages, athlete status.
