Abstract

Aim: The purpose of this study is to examine the changes in overall affect, positive affect (PA) and negative affect (NA) of the individuals involved in outdoor activities. Moreover, the study aims to describe daily satisfaction levels of the participants of outdoor sports activities. Material and Methods: This study was conducted in the south of Turkey, Antalya, Köprülü Canyon National Park and followed daily diary studies in non-experimental design. 104 voluntary participants (Xage=23.70±3.04), who were not actively involved in recreational sports activities, were measured by The Positive and Negative Affect Schedule (PANAS). Besides, overall Satisfaction Questionnaire was measured during their activities. Average of PA and NA values of participants involved in outdoor sports activities were compared for each of the three days by Repeated Measures ANOVA and Two-way Repeated Measures ANOVA analysis. Results: When the overall changes in the affect levels of participants were considered, a significant increase was observed between the 1st (X=2.74) and 2nd days (X=2.97). The changes in PA’s of participants were significant with an increase between the 1st (X=4.12) and 2nd (X=4.28) days and a decrease between 2nd (X=4.28) and 3rd (X=4.09) days. Furthermore, it was determined that gender did not affect the general, positive, and negative emotional states of the participants.Conclusion: The results reveal that participating in outdoor sports activities positively influence the overall and positive affect levels of participants.

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, doğa sporları aktivitelerine katılan bireylerin genel, pozitif ve negatif duygu durumlarını ve etkinliklere yönelik günlük memnuniyet düzeylerini incelemektir. Materyal ve Metot: Çalışmaya, 104 gönüllü kişi (Xyaş=23,70±3,04) katılmış ve çalışma verileri, günlük olarak 3 gün boyunca Antalya, Köprülü Kanyon Milli Parkı'nda organize edilen aktivitelerden sonra Pozitif ve Negatif Duygu Durumu Ölçeği (PANAS) ve Genel Memnuniyet Anketi ile toplanmıştır. Katılımcıların doğa sporları aktivitelerine yönelik duygu durumlarının ortalamalarının karşılaştırılmasında “Tek Yönlü ANOVA testi”, “Tekrarlanan Ölçümlerde ANOVA testi” ve “Tekrarlanan Ölçümlerde İki Yönlü ANOVA testi” kullanılmıştır. Bulgular: Yapılan test sonuçlarına göre katılımcıların genel duygu durumlarında 1. (X=2,74) ve 2. (X=2,97) gün arasında; pozitif duygu durumlarında ise 1. (X=4,12) – 2. (X=4,28) ve 2. (X=4,28) – 3. (X=4,09) günler arasında anlamlı farklılık tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, cinsiyetin katılımcıların genel, pozitif ve negatif duygu durumlarını etkilemediği belirlenmiştir.Sonuçlar: Yapılan çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre, doğa sporlarına katılım bireylerin genel ve pozitif duygu durumlarına olumlu etki yaratmaktadır.
