Abstract
The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between the results to be obtained from the Buss Perry Aggression Scale and the reaction time, visuo-spatial skill, body mass index, fat percentage and muscle mass among individuals. Our study was carried out with the voluntary participation of 84 male and female students at Baskent University. As the total aggression and verbal aggression scores of all participants increased, the number of correct answers in the mental rotation test increased. On the other hand, the auditory reaction (random interval) times of individuals who have high hostility scores decrease and they responded more quickly. It was determined that as the percentage of muscle increased in female, the correct numbers in the mental rotation test increased, but as the fat percentage increased, the correct numbers decreased. In female, as the percentage of muscle increases, their response times to choice visual reaction times accelerate, and as the percentage of fat increases, their responses slow down. The fact that participants with high muscle percentage and low fat percentage were more successful in the mental rotation test suggests that directing individuals to sports can improve their visuo-spatial abilities. It suggests that individuals with a high body mass index or fat percentage may have slower responses to the auditory and visual reaction test, resulting in them being slower or unsuccessful in daily activities, alertness, or in activities such as sports competitions.
