(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2018 Aralık) İnce, Tahsin; Dağlıoğlu, Önder
The studies that aim to bring together the strength and the speed of movement are called plyometric trainings. Our aim in this study is to be able to show the effect of plyometric training program on sportive performance parameters in young soccer players and to make recommendations for coaches and sportsmen on sportive training and training planning from this point. Twenty-four male soccer players aged 17-22 making regular soccer training participated in the study. Two different groups were formed as experimental and control groups and a plyometric training program was applied to the experimental group for 3 days a week for 8 weeks. Both groups continued their normal soccer training. Height, weight, body mass index (BMI), body fat percentage (BFP), aerobic capacity (VO2max), anaerobic capacity, speed and flexibility were measured before and after training. The trainings known as drop jump, box jump, squat jump, split squat jump, overhead slam and plyometric push-up were applied to the plyometric training group. Vertical jump test was used for anaerobic capacity measurement. Flexibility test (Sit and Reach test) and speed test (30 m) were applied. For statistical analysis, Paired Sample t-test was used in group comparisons and Independent Sample t-test was used for intergroup comparisons. BFP, anaerobic capacity, VO2max, speed and elasticity values were found to be significant after the plyometric training program of the experimental group (p<0.05). BFP and VO2max values of the control group were significant (p<0.05). When the groups were compared, anaerobic capacity, speed and flexibility values were found to be significant in favor of the experimental group (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in weight, BMI, BFP and VO2max values (p>0.05). As a result of our research, the plyometric training program applied to young soccer players is considered to have a positive effect on sportive performance parameters. It can be said that regular and programmed plyometric training improves sportive performance positively.

(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2018 Aralık) Şahin, Ahmet
The purpose of this study is to analyze Sports Management Students’ Opinions on Project-Based Learning. A great majority of the sports management students who participated in the study do sports regularly and only a little portion of 3.3 % stated that they do not do sports at all. In order to determine the attitudes of students towards the method of Project-Based Learning, an attitude scale -originally called Project-Based Learning Attitude Scale (PBLAS), which consisted of a total of 26 items (13 positive and 13 negative) was prepared after receiving the expert opinion of Sezgin in 2008. The ratio of female sports management students who read books is higher that the ratio of male students. On the other hand, the frequency of visiting entertainment venues is higher for male students compared to female students. When the average scores of the answers given to the Project-Based Learning scale are observed, it can be concluded that the students who participated in the study were eager to make use of the benefits of project-based learning, however because they were also affected from negative cases, they were often undecided. When the opinions of the project-based learning study participants are analyzed according to gender, it can be claimed that for the 4 items that were available in the scale, male students had more positive opinions compared to female students. It can be also seen that more female students expressed positive opinions for item first.

(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2018 Aralık) Türker, Ali; Yüksel, Oğuzhan; Akın, Sinan
The aim of this study is to examine the influence different models of force trainings on balance values.In the research, 30 volunteer participants including 20 experimental (experiment A, experiment B) and 10 control aged between 18-22 have taken part. Volunteer participants partaking in experiment group have been incorporated into different force trainings of 3 days in a week during eight weeks. Training program 4. It has been modified their 1 maximum ranks (1TM) by being identified again at the end of the week. While the participants taking part in Experiment A (n=10) were given classic force training, those taking part in Experiment B (n=10) were given super slow motion force training. The participants in control group have gone on their routine daily lives. Before and after the training period, the values of Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) have been recorded. The values of Skewness & Kurtosis have been looked up to retain whether the datum obtained show normal distribution or not. When Repeated Measure ANOVA (Repeated Measure Anova) test was being applied to identify the differences between groups, Simple Effect Test has been implemented to determine the development level in the group. Significance level has been determined as p< 0.05. According to the results of Repeated measures Anova test, even though the significant change has been seen when the differences in the values of left foot star balance test in both experiment group were compared before and after the training period, a statistically significant difference has been determined in the values of right foot star balance test. According to the Simple Effect Test results, while the increase in the classic force training (experiment A) group is meaningless,it has been found that the increase in Super Slow Motion force training (experiment B) group is statistically meaningful. The results obtained show that classic and super slow motion force trainings have contributed to the development of force after the implementation period. Depending on the force gaining, the development in the values of dynamic balance has been seen. However, depending on string out in terms of time of tending to concentric and eccentric muscular contraction in slow motion force trainings, its influence on balance performance has more come into prominence.

Network Motifs in Football
(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2018 Aralık) Gürsakal, Necmi; Yılmaz, Fırat Melih; Çobanoğlu, Halil Orbay; Çağlıyor, Sandy
Complex networks often display network motifs and these can be described as subgraphs. Methods for analyzing complex networks promise to be of great benefit to almost all scientific disciplines including sports. In football if we want to disrupt the opponent's game format, we must first be aware of the pass motifs that the team often uses. Determining how to break these motifs will make an important contribution to the success of a team. In this study, 3-nodes and 4-nodes pass motifs of the teams were examined within the frame of a data set of ten games and the most frequent repetitions of these motifs were determined. In addition, we suggest that in a match, the balance can be measured by the correlation between the frequencies of the motif types and there may be an inverse relationship between this correlation and the difference in the goals of the match.

(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2023 Aralık) Yılmaz, Dursun Alper; Dege, Gökhan; Çağıran, İbrahim Hakkı
The aim of this study is to evaluate the relationship between physical activity levels and social media addiction in adolescents. The study was structured as a descriptive correlational research, comprising a cohort of 160 volunteer students (90 female and 70 male) residing in Ağrı, Turkey. The female students had an average age of 15.5 ± 1.2 years, while the male students had an average age of 15.0 ± 1.4 years. Data collection was conducted using two instruments: the Social Media Addiction Scale for Adolescents and the abbreviated version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire. Data analysis encompassed correlation and regression techniques, with statistical analysis performed using the SPSS statistical software version 26 (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The results of the study revealed that there was no significant relationship between the participants' physical activity levels and their social media addiction (Beta = 0.53, p > 0.05). It's noteworthy that the R-squared value is negative (-0.07). However, a strong positive correlation was identified between the participants' gender and their overall physical activity levels (z = -2.41, p < 0.05). This positive correlation was also observed in all sub-dimensions, specifically in walking (z = -2.16, p = 0.02), vigorous activity (z = -2.22, p = 0.02), and moderate activity (z = -2.61, p = 0.01). Furthermore, there was no difference in the mean score distributions of the Social Media Addiction Scale for Adolescents by gender (F = 1.34, p = 0.23). However, a weak positive correlation was found between social media addiction and the age of the students (r = 0.362, p = 0.01*). In conclusion, this study does not establish a significant association between social media addiction and physical activity levels in adolescents. However, it highlights a positive correlation between participants' gender and their physical activity levels. These findings may be useful in developing interventions to promote physical activity and reduce social media addiction in adolescents.

(Selçuk Üniversitesi, 2023 Aralık) Gürgan, Atakan; Karamancıoğlu, Berna; Dikmen Hoşbaş, Beyzanur; Demirci, Deniz
The aim of this study was to determine the most common musculoskeletal disorders in athletes and to investigate the relationship between musculoskeletal complaints and sport-related anxiety and body awareness. This study, which was designed using the relational screening method as a quantitative research, was conducted using the online survey method (via Google Forms). The study included 80 athletes aged 18-35 years, who were actively involved in elite level sport. The Nordic Musculoskeletal Questionnaire was used to assess musculoskeletal disorders, the Sports Anxiety Scale-2 (SAS-2) to assess anxiety, and the Body Awareness Questionnaire (BAQ) to assess body awareness. There was a significant difference in somatic anxiety levels between the athletes who experienced musculoskeletal pain and those who did not (p<0.05). The somatic anxiety levels of athletes with musculoskeletal disorders were found to be higher than those without musculoskeletal disorders. A weak correlation at significant level was found between the somatic anxiety levels of the athletes and the number of complaint areas reported in the last 12 months (p<0.01). With the body awareness status of the athletes; while a positive significant weak level relationship was found with somatic anxiety level (p<0.05), a negative relationship was found with concentration disorganisation at a high level of significance (p<0.05). It was observed that athletes with musculoskeletal disorders had higher levels of somatic anxiety and that the number of regions in which the athlete experienced complaints was related to the level of somatic anxiety; there was no relationship between body awareness levels and musculoskeletal complaints. A multidisciplinary study with a psychological perspective is important for the clinical care and support of elite athletes in different sports.
