“…Further, our results show that as the level of sports participation (frequency, intensity, and duration) increased, all variables, such as sports participation, IHLC, and wellness scores, increased by statistically significant amounts. This is consistent with Hui et al [35] and Ertan and Özyol [36], who reported that knowledge of the benefits of sports participation is highly related to the level of sports participation, which can be increased through cognitive and affective participation in sports activities. In addition, Mercer et al [37] showed that a strong IHLC was associated with high levels of sports participation.…”

This study was aimed at providing practical information to improve Korean adolescents’ wellness by empirically identifying its correlation with sports participation and having an internal health locus of control (IHLC) during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study comprised both a pilot test and a main study. We recruited 844 Korean adolescents as subjects in January 2021 to participate in an online self-reported survey. The reliability and validity of the scales used (sports participation, IHLC, and wellness) were verified through a pilot test. In the main study, we verified the differences between all variables according to adolescents’ demographic characteristics and the structural relationship of sports participation, IHLC, and wellness. Sports participation had a positive effect on IHLC (p < 0.001) and wellness (p < 0.001). Additionally, IHLC had a positive effect on wellness (p < 0.001). In juvenile educational institutions, there is a need to develop strategies to increase wellness, sports participation, and IHLC among adolescent students, which can improve their wellness in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“…Chrissini and Panagiotakos [24] reported that individuals with high levels of health literacy have superior knowledge and skills in obesity management. It was stated that knowledge about health issues effectively increased obesity awareness and physical activity levels [25]. Another study reported that young people who read articles and newspapers exhibited higher levels of obesity awareness [26].…”

Background: The study aims to examine the mediating role of physical activity attitudes in the relationship between university students' e-health literacy levels and obesity awareness. Methodology: The study was designed with a relational research model, one of the quantitative research methods. A total of 333 university students, 159 males and 174 females, participated in the study. Pearson correlation analysis was applied to examine the relationship between e-health literacy, obesity awareness, and physical activity attitudes. In the study, e-health literacy was employed as the independent variable; obesity awareness was used as the dependent variable, and positive and negative attitudes toward physical activity were used as the mediating variables. The bias-corrected bootstrapping 5000 method was employed to ascertain the significance of the mediating variable, with the lower and upper limit intervals being checked to ensure that no zero values were present. Results: The mediating effect of positive physical activity attitudes between e-health literacy and obesity awareness was found to be positive and significant (β=0.0112, t=4.259, p=<.001, CI=[0.060-0.163]. The mediating effect of negative attitudes toward physical activity between e-health literacy and obesity awareness was insignificant (β=0.0162, t=0.913, p=0.361, CI=[-0.018-0.049]). A predictive effect of e-health literacy and physical activity attitudes on obesity awareness was identified, with a value of 57%. The study revealed that e-health literacy accounted for 25% of the negative attitudes toward physical activity and 42% of the positive attitudes toward physical activity. Ethics approval number: Date: 13/02/2024, session no: 03 Decision: 03.14 Conclusion: The study has demonstrated a correlation between e-health literacy and obesity awareness. As e-health literacy levels increase, so too does obesity awareness. On the other side, the current study found a positive and significant relationship between e-health literacy and positive attitudes toward physical activity. It was ultimately determined that positive attitudes toward physical activity had a mediating effect on the relationship between e-health literacy and obesity awareness.

Beden eğitimi ve spor öğretmenleri fiziksel uygunluk uzmanı olarak kabul edildikleri için hitap ettikleri gruplara fiziksel aktivite yaptırmak ve bir egzersiz programı önermek durumundadır. Bundan dolayı bu çalışmanın amacı beden eğitimi ve spor öğretmenlerinin egzersiz bilgi ve seviyelerini tespit etmek aynı zamanda buna göre tavsiyelerde bulunmak. Bu amaç doğrultusunda yöntem şu şekilde oluşturulmuştur. Bu çalışma, Kahramanmaraş Sütçü İmam Üniversitesi, Girişimsel Olmayan Klinik Araştırmalar Etik Kurulu’nun onayı ile yapıldı. Araştırma evrenini Kahramanmaraş bölgesinde bulunan milli eğitime bağlı okullarda beden eğitimi ve spor öğretmenliği yapan öğretmenlerden oluşmaktadır. Örneklem grubunun ise çalışmamıza gönüllülük esasına dayalı olarak rastgele yöntemle katılan 162 beden eğitimi ve spor öğretmeni oluşturmuştur. Sosyo demografik bilgi formu ile sosyo demografik özellikleri değerlendirildi. Katılımcıların egzersiz bilgi ve bilinç düzeylerini ölçmek için Tuncel ve Tuncel (2009) tarafından geliştirilen anketin 51 maddelik düzenli egzersiz ve fiziksel aktivite bilinç düzeyi bölümü kullanıldı. Ölçeğin Cronbach Alpha yöntemi ile hesaplanan güvenirlik katsayısı .99 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Normallik sınaması Kolmorov-Smirnov testi ile değerlendirilmiş. İki grup arasında Mann-Whitney U testi üç ve üstü gruplar arasında Kruskall Wallis testi uygulanmıştır. Farkın hangi gruptan kaynaklandığını görmek için Post Hoc- Dunnett C testi yapılmış.
