“…In another study conducted by Crassini et al (2007) revealed that women reported to be more assertive than men on some items. However, in few studies men are more assertive than women (Coşkuner et al, 2013;Kimble et al, 1984). The hypothesis of this study stating that there will be no significant difference in the levels of Assertiveness between men and women has been accepted.…”

“…Since this was the first study of this kind in the sports community, there is an urgent need for its repetition in other samples to obtain results for empirical comparisons and confirmations. According to the results of other studies on the effect of age, gender, and skill level on assertiveness [36], it is suggested that studies be conducted on samples with a different age range and in different societies to generalize and compare the results. It is also suggested that future studies be more extensive with long-term follow-ups to determine the effect of assertiveness training after a longer period.…”

Amaç: Bu çalışma, farklı spor branşlarındaki bedensel engelli bireylerin atılganlık durumlarının karşılaştırılması amacıyla yapılmıştır. Materyal ve Yöntem: Çalışmaya, Bedensel Engelli Spor Kulüpleri'nde spor yapmakta olan toplam 60 kişi (35 atlet ve 25 yüzücü) gönüllü olarak katılmıştır. Katılımcıların, yaş ortalamaları 19,73±5,08yıl, spor yılı ortalamaları 2,48±1,75yıl, spor yapma durumları (haftalık gün ortalaması 3,63±1,52, günde saat ortalamaları 2,91±1,53) olarak tespit edilmiştir. Çalışmada, sporcuların atılganlık düzeyleri; Rathus Atılganlık Envanteri kullanılarak ölçülmüştür. Ayrıca, sporcuların demografik özelliklerini belirlemek amacıyla araştırmacı tarafından bir anket yapılmıştır. İstatistiksel analizler, SPSS 11.5 paket programında (frekans, ortalama, standart sapma ve gruplar arası bağımsız t-testi) yapılmıştır. Bulgular: Branşların, atılganlık düzeyleri karşılaştırıldığında; anlamlı bir farklılık görülmemiştir (p>0,05). Yüzücülerin atılganlık ortalama puanları 14,67±6,62 iken, atletizm ile uğraşan sporcuların 12,70±4,67 olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Hem yüzme branşında (19 kişi, %76) hem de atletizm branşında (25 kişi, %71,4) çekingenliğin daha fazla olduğu görülmüştür. Sonuçlar: Farklı spor dallarının, fiziksel engelli bireylerin atılganlık özelliklerine benzer bir etkisi olabileceğini düşünüyoruz. Abstract KeywordsAim: The aim of this study was the comparison of assertiveness level of physically disabled athletes who played in different sport branches. Material and Methods: Totally 60 disabled athletes (35 athletes and 25 swimmers) joined in to the study voluntarily. The means of ages, sports year and sport statues were found 19.73±5.08, 2.48±1.75 years, day number in per week: 3.63±1.52, hour numbering per day: 2.91±1.53 respectively. Rathus Assertiveness Schedule was used for evaluating assertiveness and questionnaire of athletes' demographic features was performed by researcher. For statistical analyses, the SPSS 11.5 computer packet program (frequency, mean, standard deviation and independent t test) was performed.

Both swimming (19 person, %76) and athletics (25 person, %71.4) were seen shyness more than assertiveness. GİRİŞ Bedensel engelli bireylerin, psiko-sosyal problemler (depresyon, düşük benlik, anksiyete, topluma uyumsuzluk vb.) ile karşı karşıya kaldıkları vurgulanmaktadır. Bundan dolayı, sosyal desteğe ihtiyaç duydukları ve bu desteğin ise; engelli bireyin fiziksel, mental ve sosyal performansına katkı sağlayabileceği belirtilmektedir (Liu et al., 2010; Valizadeh et al., 2014). Bu sosyal desteklerden birisinin de spor yolu ile sağlanabileceği söylenebilinir. Çünkü sportif etkinliklere katılan bireyler, oyun ve hareketler aracılığıyla duygularını ifade etme imkânı bulur. Böylece saldırganlık, utangaçlık, kıskançlık gibi duyguların boşalımı sağlanır ve bunların kontrol edilmesi öğrenilir. Baskı altındayken USEABD y...
