Investigation of physical self-perception and sports participation motivations of physically disabled individuals

This research was conducted with the aim of examining the physical self-perceptions of individuals with physical disabilities and their motivation to participate in sports. Data were collected from a total of 459 physically disabled individuals, 280 males, and 179 females, using the "Personal Demographic Information Form", the "Physical Self-Perception for Children and Young People (CY-PSPP) Inventory" developed by Whitehead (1995), and the "Motivation Scale for Sports Participation in Disabled Individuals" developed by Tekkurşun (2018). In the research, the T-Test and One-Way ANOVA analysis were used to determine the differences between demographic variables, the Post-Hoc Tukey test was used to determine the differences between groups, and Pearson Product Moment Correlation analysis was used to determine the relationships between variables. When sports participation motivation is examined by gender, it was found that there was no statistically significant difference in the intrinsic and extrinsic motivation sub-dimensions; It was determined that there was a statistically significant difference in the amotivation sub-dimension. According to the disability type variable, there was no statistically significant difference in the physical strength sub-dimension; It was determined that there was a statistically significant difference in the sub-dimensions of general self, physical self, physical condition, sports competence and physical attractiveness. When physical self-perception was examined according to gender variable, it was found that there was no statistically significant difference in the sub-dimensions of general self, physical attractiveness, and physical strength; It was determined that there was a statistically significant difference in the sub-dimensions of physical self, physical condition and sports competence. According to the disability type variable, there was no statistically significant difference in the physical strength sub-dimension; It was determined that there was a statistically significant difference in the sub-dimensions of general self, physical self, physical condition, sports competence and physical attractiveness. Again, age and active sports variables were examined in our research, and different results were obtained in their sub-dimensions. If disabled individuals are provided with a closer bond to society through sports, they will have a stronger physical self-perception and increase their motivation to participate in sports.

Comparison of Self-Efficacy of Individual and Team Athletes

The aim of this study is to compare the self-efficacy of individual and team athletes. The population of the study consists of athletes over the age of 18 in Samsun province. The sample group consists of a total of 200 athletes, 101 from individual athletes and 99 from team athletes. Athlete Self-Efficacy Scale and "Personal Information Form" were used as data collection tools. For data analysis, Independent Sample T-Test was used to compare the variables. Results: In the comparison of athletes' self-efficacy according to the type of sport, there is no statistical difference in the sub-dimensions according to the findings related to the type of sport (p>0.05). However, when the mean scores are analysed, team athletes have higher mean scores than individual athletes in the sub-dimensions of Sports Competence and Personality. In the sub-dimensions of Psychological Competence and Professional Thinking, individual athletes had higher mean scores than team athletes. In the comparison of self-efficacy of individual and team athletes according to gender, there was no statistical difference in sub-dimensions (p>0.05). In the comparison of self-efficacy of individual and team athletes according to their height, there is a statistical difference between athletes with a height of 175 cm and below and athletes with a height of 176 cm and above in the sub-dimension of professional thinking in athletes (p

The Primacy of Nurturance and Dominance/Assertiveness: Unidimensional Measures of the Big Two Mask Gender Differences in Subdimensions

Agency and Communion, the Big Two of social perception, appear to have unique subdimensions, but they have differed across studies and not all may be relevant for understanding gender stereotypes. Across two sets of studies (Total <em>N</em> = 1,648), we examined self- and group gender stereotypes using Abele and colleagues’ (2021) conceptualization of agency as a vertical dimension that conveys information about social status and communion as a horizontal dimension that conveys information about approaching groups and individuals. Group stereotype analyses suggested that the vertical dimension comprised assertiveness/dominance and ability subdimensions, whereas the horizontal dimension was unidimensional. In contrast, self-stereotype analyses suggested that the vertical dimension comprised assertiveness/dominance and independence subdimensions and the horizontal dimension comprised a single nurturance subdimension—a unique morality subdimension did not emerge. As expected, women were perceived and rated themselves as higher on the horizontal dimension (group stereotypes), more nurturing (self-stereotypes), and less assertive/dominant (both group and self-stereotypes) than men. Gender differences in nurturance and assertiveness/dominance were stronger, as expected, among individuals whose gender was salient. We discuss implications for examining gender stereotypes and the potential consequences of misspecifying the Big Two as unidimensional.

Teacher Candidates' Assessment for Pedagogy Education: Karabuk University/Turkey Sample

The aim of this research is to determine the extent of benefit of teacher training education of the teacher candidate students who are having pedagogical teacher training education. This research is a quantitative study in general screening model. In the research, a questionnaire formed of 5-point Likert type with 26 items was used. Cronbach Alpha coefficient of the scale was 0,74. 222 teacher candidates participated into the study. The scale items were gathered under sub-dimensions of 'lessons taken by means of distant education, lessons taken by means of face-to-face education, teaching practice process in schools and general assessment of teacher training education'. According to the findings of the research, it was seen that assessments of the teacher candidates relating to the profession were positive. The students preferred face-to-face education to on-line education. Within this process, the importance of teaching practice was detected due to the provision of opportunity for the candidates for putting their theoretical knowledge into practice. No significant difference was seen in the assessments of the teacher training education in terms of gender by the teacher candidates. There was a difference in sub-dimension of 'lessons taken by means of face-to-face education' with respect to the group of History-Geography students. As suggestions, it is anticipated that teacher training education of the teacher candidates should be provided with the face-to-face education freely and courses should be arranged within four years of undergraduate education programs.

This study aims to develop the “Pedagogical Efficacy Perception Scale” for teacher candidates and to compare scale scores. The sample of this survey model study consists of 310 students studying in a faculty of education. The “Pedagogical Efficacy Perception Scale” developed by the author was used for data collection. Exploratory factor analysis shows that it is a two-factor scale. These factors are “Pedagogical Attitudes” and “Pedagogical Efficacy Perception”. The calculated Pearson correlation coefficients indicate that there are good level correlations between the scores obtained in the sub-scales “Pedagogical Efficacy Perception Scale” and “Pedagogical Attitudes”, and there are high correlations between the scores obtained in the sub-scale “Pedagogical Attitudes” and the total scores and between the scores in the sub-scale “Pedagogical Efficacy Perception” and the total scores. The scores obtained via the measurement tool demonstrate that there is an intergroup difference in sub-dimensions by branch and study period.
