After being transferred to the computer environment, the obtained data were subjected to various statistical processes. Accordingly, distribution analysis of the data was carried out at first and in accordance with the result obtained, parametric statistical applications were initiated. Frequency analysis was used in the assessment of participants' demographic data, t-test was used for the determination of the relationship between gender and variables, one-way analysis of variance was used for the determination of relationship between school, department, grade and age groups with variables, and tukey's test was used for the determination of the fact that from which group was the possible relationship resulted. According to the results, communication skills of the participants were at high level.

Araştırmada elit yüzme sporcularının egzersiz bağımlılığı düzeylerinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Araştırmaya lisansı olan sporcular katılmıştır. Araştırmanın çalışma grubu Türkiye Yüzme Federasyonu'nda aktif durumda olan 82 kadın, 55 erkek, toplamda 137 elit sporcudan oluşmaktadır. Araştırmada ''Kişisel Bilgi Formu'' ve Demir, Hazar ve Cicioğlu (2018) tarafından geliştirilen ''Egzersiz Bağımlılığı Ölçeği'' veri toplama aracı olarak kullanılmıştır. Araştırmada sporcuların yaşı ile bireysel-sosyal ihtiyaçların ertelenmesi ve çatışma alt boyutu arasında negatif yönde orta düzeyde anlamlı ilişki saptanmıştır. Araştırmaya katılan sporcuların yüzme stilleri ile egzersiz bağımlılığı düzeyleri arasındaki farklılık incelendiğinde sırt üstü yüzen katılımcıların serbest ve kurbağalama yüzen katılımcılara oranla egzersiz bağımlılığı puanlarının daha yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Cinsiyet, spor yaşı ve egzersiz yapma sıklığı ile egzersiz bağımlılığı alt boyutları arasında anlamlı bir farklılık görülmemiştir. Araştırmada elit yüzme sporcularının egzersiz bağımlılığı düzeylerinin bağımlı grupta yer aldığı sonucuna varılmıştır.
