Abstract:

 The aim of this study was to compare the cognitive performance of amateur boxers and sedentary people. 31 amateur male boxers mean age  20.42  3.88 and sedentary healthy individuals mean age  20.65  1.40 voluntarily participated in the study. The Stroop TBAG Form was applied to examine the cognitive performances of the participants. The given normal distribution was evaluated according to the Skewness and kurtosis values. Independent T-test was used for groups comparison. The relationship of continuous variables was evaluated by Pearson analysis. Significance level was accepted as p0.05. SPSS v 26.0 SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA package program was used. There was no significant difference in the number of corrections and errors in the Stroop test subsections between the groups. In addition, the relationship between the number of sparring, official matches and cognitive performance could not be determined. As a result, it can be said that there is no significant difference in cognitive performance between amateur boxers and healthy individuals.

 Bu çalışmanın amacı amatör boksörlerin bilişsel performanslarını incelemektir. Araştırmaya, 31 amatör erkek boksör ort. yaş  20.42  3.88 ve sedanter sağlıklı kişiler ort. yaş  20.65  1.40 gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Katılımcıların bilişsel performanslarını incelemek için Stroop TBAG Formu uygulanmıştır. Verilen normal dağılımı Skewness ve kurtosis değerlerine bakılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Gruplararası karşılaştırma için bağımsız T testi kullanılmıştır. Sürekli değişkenlerin ilişkisi Pearson analiziyle değerlendirilmiştir. Anlamlılık düzeyi p0.05 olarak kabul edilmiştir. SPSS v 26.0 SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA paket programı kullanılmıştır. Stroop testi alt bölümlerinde, düzeltme ve hata sayılarında gruplar arasında anlamlı farklılık görülmemiştir. Ayrıca antrenman maçı, resmi maç sayısıyla bilişsel performans arasında ilişkisi tespit edilememiştir. Sonuç olarak, amatör boksörler ile sağlıklı bireyler arasında bilişsel performansta anlamlı farklılık olmadığı söylenebilir.
