| description | This study aims to evaluate
stress coping strategies of handicapped sportsmen based on certain demographic
variables. A total of 261 licensed and active sportsmen, 204 male and 57
female, who are undergoing regular training from different branches of sports
including amputee football, wheelchair basketball, swimming and other fields
participated in this research. “Stress Coping Strategies Scale” which was
developed by Lazarus amp; Folkman and adapted to Turkish by Şahin amp; Durak
was used in this research. Whitney U test and Kruskal Wallis H test was used
for statistical analysis of data collected. As a result of this research, it
was understood that handicapped sportsmen moderately used confident attitude,
desperate attitude, submissive attitude, request for social support and
optimist attitude. It was also understood that stress coping strategies of
handicapped sportsmen who participated in the research have significant
differences based on their age, gender, branch of sports and years spent doing
sports (p lt;0.05). As a result, we might suggest that age, gender, branch of
sports and years spent doing sports are important factors that affect the
stress coping strategies of sportsmen. |
