The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of body image and Corona disease anxiety on athlete’s eating disorders.The method of this research is descriptive and correlational. The statistical population Ağrı İbrahim Çeçen University Faculty of Sports Sciences, which is equal to 340 people. To determine the sample size, Cochran’s sample size estimation formula was used and the number of samples was equal to 181 people who were selected by simple random sampling method. Corona Disease Anxiety Scale (CDAS) by Alipour et al. (2019), Body Image Questionnaire by Cash et al. (1990) and Eating Disorders Questionnaire by Garner D, and Olmsted (1982) were used to collect data. SPSS software was used to analyze the data and regression coefficient was used to analyze the research hypotheses.The results show that body image has a significant negative effect on eating disorders (p <0.05, Beta = -0.44). Corona anxiety also had a significant positive effect on eating disorders (p <0.05, Beta = 0.56).Therefore, it can be concluded that with more attention to the body image,reflection on physical characteristics, satisfaction with different body parts and attitudes about weight, eating disorders decrease and with increasing Corona disease anxiety, eating disorders increase. Attitudes toward the body should be controlled and ways to get into Coronavirus anxiety should be limited.
Emotions are one of the important factors guiding our behaviors. People often make decisions by being influenced by their emotions throughout their lives. Therefore, it is important to recognize and learn to control our emotions. There are different groups of individuals with disabilities, and the swimming training of each group with disabilities is different. Swimming, which is one of the Paralympic sports branches, appeals to almost all groups with disabilities. There are very few swimming coaches in Turkey who provide swimming training to individuals with disabilities, and are only interested in groups with disabilities. There are swimming coaches who are accredited to the Swimming Federation of Turkey and who provide swimming training to individuals without disabilities, and their number is higher than the coaches who provide training to swimmers with disabilities. A coach, who is defined as the individual who provides sports skills and tactical development for an athlete to achieve success, is the individual who prepares many sports players for matches and tournaments to be held. The coach is responsible for raising the players to the required level by considering the variables such as process, place, equipment, technique, and tactics. In our study, it is aimed to examine the emotional intelligence levels of the coaches working with individuals with disabilities and individuals without disabilities in the swimming branch. The research is a descriptive study and the data were collected by the questionnaire method. The research data were analyzed using SPSS 22.0 software. Independent samples t-test was used to compare the total score of the scale according to the status of coaching an individual with disability whereas MANOVA analysis was used to compare the status of coaching an individual with a disability * according to demographic variables.
Purpose: This study aims to study the impact of the eight-week high-intensity interval training implemented by the national track and field team on some motor skills by gender.Technique and method: The study involves 17 male and 16 female athletes ages 18 to 26 who currently pursue an active sports life in the Turkish national crosscountry teams. The anaerobic strength, agility, vertical and horizontal jump values, and sprint skills of the athletes in the study were measured.Findings: Through statistical assessment, it was found that while there was a significant increase in the Wingate test, it was not significant in terms of gender. It was also found that while significant decreases took place in the right-foot jump, left-foot jump, right-foot vertical jump, left-foot vertical jump, double-foot vertical jump, Illinois agility test, and sprint test values, there were no significant differences based on gender.Conclusion: The study suggests that an eight-week high-intensity interval training boosts the anaerobic capacities of young female and male national cross country athletes and improve performance parameters such as jump and vertical jump performance, agility, and sprint.
