Investigation of University Students' Burnout Levels in Sports

Abstract

Burnout, which is one of the situations where an individual feels psychologically bad, is a situation that university students often experience. For this reason, the aim of this study is to examine the burnout status of university students who do physical activity in sports. In this study, the sports burnout scale developed by Sorkkila et al., (2017) and adapted into Turkish by Çam et al., (2019) was used. The data were collected by convenience sampling method. Statistical analyzes were made with the SPSS program. In addition, to reduce the error rate, FDR analysis was performed with the Graphpad 9 program with a rate of 5%. When this analysis was done, the data were free of type I error. As a result, it is seen that as participation in physical activity increases, burnout in sports decreases.
