The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between smartphone addiction and life satisfaction of the students studying at faculty of sport sciences and to determine whether these parameters differ in terms of various variables. In the study, the Smartphone Addiction Scale developed by and adapted to Turkish by Noyan et al. (2015) was used to determine the level of smartphone addiction of the participants. Life Satisfaction Scale developed by Diener et al., (1985) and adapted to Turkish by Köker (1991) was used to determine the life satisfaction levels of the participants. Conventional sampling method was preferred for sample selection and face-toface survey method was used for data collection. In the analysis of the obtained data, descriptive statistics, Independent Sample t-test, One-way ANOVA and Pearson Correlation Analysis were used. A total of 554 volunteers participated in the study: 276 males (49,8 %) and 278 females (50,2%). According to the results of the research, smartphone addiction and life satisfaction parameters had a statistically significant difference according to various variables. In addition, there was a significant negative correlation between life satisfaction and smartphone addiction. As a result, it was determined that as life satisfaction levels increased, smartphone addiction levels of participants decreased.
In this study, it was aimed to investigate exercise dependencies according to perceived health levels from participation in recreational activities. In the study, the “Exercise Addiction Scale” developed by Tekkurşun-Demir, Hazar and Cicioğlu (2018) and “The Scale of Perceived Health Outcomes in Recreation” developed by Gómez et al. (2016) and adapted to Turkish by Yerlisu-Lapa et al. (2017) were used. Convenience sampling method was used for sample selection, and face-to-face survey method was preferred for data collection. Independent Sample t-test and One-way ANOVA were used in examining the differences between variables and descriptive analysis were conducted by using the SPSS package program. In addition, Hierarchical and Non-Hierarchical Clustering analysis was used to group the participants according to perceived health outcome levels. A total of 241, including 114 male (47.3%) and 127 female (52.7%), who participated in the activities within the Sport Istanbul Inc., participated in the study voluntarily. When the findings of the research were examined, it was determined that there was a statistically significant difference in the “Over Focus and Emotional Change” sub-dimensions of exercise dependence according to the perceived health level. As a result, it was found that individuals with high health perception had a higher level of over-focus and emotional change than those with low health perception.
In this study, the effects of the three-point rule in football on the average goals per game and the predictability of the matches were investigated by using the Markov-Regime Switching Model. The results obtained in the analysis covering 61 seasons and 3 teams in the example of the Turkish First Division Football League showed that the three-point rule increased the average goals per game, as expected. However, the effects of the three-point rule on the predictability of matches are different for each team.
This study was conducted with the aim of comparing the effect of exercise addiction levels of hearing impaired and non-hearing impaired individuals on social comparison according to different variables. In our study, the "exercise addiction scale" adapted into Turkish by Tekkurşun-Demir et al., (2018) was used in order to measure the exercise addiction levels of the participants and the "social comparison scale" developed by Allan & Gilbert (1995), was used in its latest adaptation to Turkish. In the collection of data, the electronic survey method prepared over Google Forms was preferred. In the analysis of the data obtained through the STATA 14.1 package program, One-Way ANOVA was used to examine the differences of variables, and Pearson Correlation analysis was used to examine the relationships between variables. A total of 172 volunteers living and studying in the Kayseri region of Turkey participated in our study. While there was a significant difference (P 0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the social comparison level and the postponing of individual and social needs / conflict variables for both groups compared (P> 0.05).It was determined that the results of the correlation analysis for non-hearing impaired individuals supported the results obtained in the ANOVA analysis (P> 0.05). In the correlation analysis for hearing impaired individuals, between excessive focus and emotional change, which is one of the sub-dimensions of the exercise addiction scale, and social comparison, positive and statistically significant relationship was determined (P
