<p style="text-align: justify;">The aim of this cross-sectional study is to determine the fundamental motor skills (FMS) proficiency of children with mild intellectual disabled (MID) and to compare their FMS proficiencies in terms of age and gender. This study has three purposes. These are a) Defining the FMS proficiencies of the participants, b) Examining the FMS proficiencies of the participants in terms of gender variable, c) Examining the FMS proficiencies of the participants in terms of the age variable. Participants consisted of 122 MID students aged 7-10 years (M = 8.25, SD = 0.92). FMS proficiency was evaluated with the Gross Motor Development Test-Second Edition (TGMD-2). Independent Samples t test and ANOVA test were used to test the differences between groups. As a result: a) It was observed that the participants could not perform the FMS at the mastery level. Participants failed to demonstrate FMS proficiency appropriate for their age and showed delays in FMS compared to the TGMD-2 normative sample. Most of the participants performed “below average” and “poor” for LOC and OC skills. It was determined that the participants obtained higher scores in LOC subtest compared to OC subtest, b) It was determined that males were more proficiency in FMS and subtests than females, c) No difference was found in FMS proficiency in terms of age. These results show that opportunities need to be increased to develop the FMS proficiency.</p>
The aim of this study was to examine the COVID-19 fear of high school students in the COVID-19 pandemic proccess, based on a few characteristics. Within the scope of this aim, the study’s research group; in the 2020-2021 academic year, a total of 760 students, 382 girls and 378 boys, were identified using a sample technique that can be readily located among high school students who continue their studies in Krşehir province. In the research, for determining the COVID-19 fear levels of students, Ahorsu et al. (2020), and Bakioğlu et al. (2020) “COVID-19 Fear Scale” adapted into Turkish was used. Kolmogorov-Smirnowa values showed that the data were normally distributed. Frequency and percentage analyzes were applied in descriptive statistics, T test was used in the analysis of binary groups, and One way Anova was used in the analysis of three or more groups. As a result of these analyzes, it was determined that the high school students participating in the study had a moderate (x̄ = 15.7) fear of COVID-19. It was determined that the COVID-19 fear levels of high school students the pandemic process, according to the gender variable, the COVID-19 fears of female students (x̄ = 17.26) were significantly higher than male students (x̄ = 14.21). Yet, it was determined that the variables of age, class, being in the school team, doing licensed sports, type of sports, duration of doing sports and getting COVID-19 disease did not have a significant effect on high school students’ fear of COVID-19. As a conclusion, it was shown that fear of COVID-19 in high school students created substantial disparities in favor of girls only on the basis of gender. Other characteristics revealed in the study had no significant effect on high school students’ COVID-19 fear levels.
Özİnsan, doğası gereği fiziksel ve psikolojik yönleriyle bir bütündür. Günümüzde teknolojik gelişmelerin sağladığı konfor ile birlikte insanlar, ev ve işyerlerinde eskiye oranla daha fazla oturarak vakit geçirmeye başlamış ve fiziksel aktivitenin yeri giderek azalmaya başlamıştır. Bu bağlamda bu araştırmanın genel amacı; lise öğrencilerinin fiziksel aktiviteye katılım motivasyonlarının belirlenerek çeşitli değişkenlerle karşılaştırılmasıdır. İlişkisel tarama modelindeki bu araştırmanın çalışma grubunu 2019-2020 eğitim-öğretim yılında Yozgat ilinde eğitimine devam eden 9., 10., 11. ve 12. sınıf öğrencileri, içerisinden kolaylıkla bulunabilen örnekleme yöntemi ile belirlenen 125 kadın 140 erkek olmak üzere toplam 265 katılımcı oluşturmaktadır. Araştırmada veri toplama aracı olarak, öğrencilerin Fiziksel Aktiviteye Katılım Motivasyonu belirlemek üzere Demir ve Cicioğlu, tarafından geliştirilen ''Fiziksel Aktiviteye Katılım Motivasyonu Ölçeği'' (FAKMÖ), kullanılmıştır. Verilerin analizinde; cinsiyet ve spor yapma değişkenleri için standart sapma, aritmetik ortalama, bağımsız örneklemler için t testi, tek yönlü varyans analizi (ANOVA), Post-Hoc testlerinden yararlanılmıştır. Araştırma sonucunda; öğrencilerin fiziksel aktivite katılım motivasyonu ölçeğinden aldıkları toplam puanlarının orta düzeyde olduğu saptanmıştır. Cinsiyete göre nedensizlik alt boyutlarında kadınlar lehine anlamlılık saptanmıştır. Spor yapma durumuna göre çevresel nedenler alt boyutunda sedanter bireyler lehine anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir. Sınıf düzeyine göre ölçeğin genelinde 10. Sınıf öğrencilerinin lehine anlamlı bir farklılık bulunmuştur p<0,05. Vücut kitle indeksi değişkenine göre nedensizlik alt boyutunda fazla kilolu öğrencilerin lehine anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir.
