The effect of participation in regular tennis exercise on sportsmanship
(Selçuk Üniversitesi, Spor Bilimleri Fakültesi, 2023) Efek, Engin; Eryiğit, Hakan
This study examines the effect of participation in regular tennis exercise on sportsmanship in secondary school students. The research was carried out with an experimental method and sequential design. The study sample, 46 volunteer students, was divided into two groups as experimental and control groups. The “Personal Information Form” and the “Physical Education Lesson Sportsmanship Behavior Scale” were applied to the students in both groups as a pre-test in the first week and as a post-test after 12 weeks. Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) 17.0 program was used for data analysis. As a result of the normality tests (Skewness and Kurtosis), it was determined that the data showed normal distribution, so the Independent Sample T-Test and Paired Samples TTest were applied. The significance level was accepted as p<0.05. According to the findings of the study, while there was a statistically significant difference between the pre-test (90.82 ± 14) and post-test (97.52 ± 10) of the experimental group's sportsmanship level, no statistically significant difference between the pre-test (85.73 ± 12) and post-test (83.52 ± 14) of the control group's sportsmanship levels between. Consequently, this study reveals that participation in 12 weeks of regular tennis exercise significantly increases the sportsmanship level of secondary school students.

(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2023 Ağustos) Sarıalioğlu, Nihat
This study was conducted to investigate the relationship between the morphological structure of the foot and female athletes’ static balance levels. 51 female athletes with an average age of 22.25±0.38 years participated in the research. The foot morphology was evaluated in 4 parameters. Balance scores were evaluated in 8 parameters. Spearman and Pearson correlation tests were used to determine the relationship between parameters (p<05). According to the results, it was observed that in the right foot there was a negative significant correlation between foot index (FI) parameter and standard deviation of forward and backward sway (FBSD), average forward backward speed (AFBS), used perimeter (P), used area (A) balance scores. In the left foot, there was a positive correlation between the FI parameter and the pressure to the average central y axis (COPY) balance score, and a negative significant relationship between the FI parameter and the FBSD and AFBS balance scores. It was determined that there was a positive significant correlation between the Chippaux Smirak index (CSI) and Staheli index (SI) parameters of both feet and the pressure to the average central x point (COPX) balance score. The results can be interpreted that the anatomical structure of the foot is important in the static balance characteristics of athletes

(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2023 Ağustos) Hassanzadeh, Mojgan; Sayyah, Ali; Arazı, Hamid
Due to the necessity of resistance training for athletes conditioning, loading patterns in order to improve training outcomes have received more attention in recent decades. Accordingly, the purpose of this study was to assess the impact of 8-week resistance training performed with double pyramid (DP) and reverse step (RS) systems on some physical fitness components of elite female handball players. Thirty young female handball players are randomly assigned to the three groups of DP (age: 17.43±1.63 year, weight: 70.28±10.14 kg, fat percentage: 15.60±1.17), RS (age: 17.13±1.32 year, weight: 67.80±7.78 kg, fat percentage: 15.40±1.69), and control groups (age: 17.33±1.71 year, weight: 61.04±6.61 kg, fat percentage: 16.50±1.43). Training programs was performed for an eightweek, 3 sessions per week with loading pattern of DP or RS. Measurements including fat percentage, anaerobic power (RAST), agility (Illinois), Speed (45 meter sprint), strength (1RM), and muscle endurance (60% 1RM) are taken before and after the training course. After the training period, DP and RS groups had significant effects on the mean power, upper and lower body muscular endurance, fat percentage, agility and speed (p<0.05). Moreover, DP had a significantly greater improvement in upper body strength than RS groups, whereas RS revealed a significantly greater improvement in lower body strength than DP groups (p<0.05). Also, comparison of DP and RS groups showed a significant difference in lower and upper body muscle endurance between the two groups (P <0.05); While, there was not a significant difference in anaerobic power, upper and lower body strength, fat percentage, speed, and agility tests between training groups. DP resistance training appears that to have more impact in improving anaerobic power, upper body strength and speed. While, RS ones showed a greater effect on increasing the lower body strength, muscular endurance, agility and fat percentage of female handball players. Therefore, DP and RS resistance training have positive effects on physical fitness factors among elite female handball players.

In addition, it was found that regional tribalism, one of the subdimensions of psychological commitment to the team, increased the respect towards the opponent, while social obligation decreased the respect towards the opponent. In the Multiple Regression Analysis conducted to examine the extent to which psychological commitment to the team predicts respect towards opponent, it was seen that 8% of respect towards opponent was explained. It is considered that the findings of the study will contribute to the development of policies to increase sportsmanship and fairplay behaviours of fans and to prevent aggression.
Monitoring the Reactions of Athletes with History of Rectus Femoris Proximal Tear Healed with Different Methods to Training Load with Thermography
(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2023 Ağustos) Bayrak, Ahmet; Ergene, Mehmet Celalettin; Ceylan, Murat
Although rectus femoris (RF) injuries are rare, it is an important muscle that should be considered because of its contribution to actions such as shooting and fast running in football. In the literature, there is no consensus on which conservative or surgical methods should be preferred in RF total rupture. Although MRI is the gold standard method in the detection of injury, there is a controversy in the literature for post-injury imaging and follow-up. In addition, there is a lack of diagnostic imaging methods in the literature on how training load affects athletes. In current study, the effect of training load on athletes is evaluated by thermography after treatment of the RF muscle with different methods. This study is worthy of being a case report in terms of providing evidence on how the training load affects the sports lives of athletes who return to sports after surgery or conservative treatment.

(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2023 Ağustos) Satılmış, Nuray; Taşdemir, Bülent; Bayraktar, Işık; Bayrakdar, Akan
The relationship between the reaction time and the total running time of male (n=407) and female (n=345) athletes competing in the 60-meter wind sprint branch at the world indoor championships between 2006 and 2022 and the competition hour was examined in this study. Statistically significant and negative relationships were found between competition hour and athletes' reaction times, competition hour and athletes' competition result ratings in both genders (rho<0.040; p<0.05). When the subject is examined in terms of the stages of the competitions, no relationship was found for both genders in the final stage while the same relationships were preserved in the semi-final stage. At the qualification stage, a positive relationship was observed between the competition hour and the reaction time in both men (rho=0.25) and women (rho=0.22). In particular, it will be important that the competition time zones in the qualification stage are in similar circadian zones so as not to create a disadvantage among the athletes, and that the competition programs should be prepared by taking the performance-limiting and performance-supporting time zones into account.

In this study, it was aimed (i) to compare teachers' educational game teaching self-efficacy in terms of gender, age, marital status, educational status, seniority, different branches and (ii) to examine educational game teaching self-efficacy levels. General survey method was used in the research. The sample group of the study consisted of 50 physical education and sports, 50 preschool and 50 classroom teachers, total 150 teachers working in Alanya district. In data collection, the 'Educational Play Self-Efficacy Scale' and the demographic information form were applied online via Google® forms to the individuals who voluntarily participated in the study. The data obtained from the study were using IBM SPSS 25.0 statistical package programme. Since the data showed normal distribution as a result of the kurtosis and skewness test, Independents Sample T test was used for binary variables and One Way Anova test was used for three or more variables. As a result of the findings, it was determined that there was a significant difference in the participants' educational game playing competences in terms of age, seniority and branch variables. However, no significant difference was found in terms of gender and educational status variables. In addition, while physical education and sports teachers' self-efficacy in teaching educational games is better than other branch teachers, pre-school teachers' efficacy levels in the application dimension are lower than other branches. As a result, it was determined that teachers' self-efficacy in educational game teaching was at a high level, but there were differences in age, professional seniority, branch and application competence in game teaching. By providing in-service training to improve the implementation dimension, pre-school teachers' self-efficacy level in educational game teaching can be increased to a high level.
