Abstract
The purpose of this research is to examine the relationship between innovative behaviors and future visions of sports management students. The research was conducted within the framework of a relational survey model and was carried out using data obtained from 215 students (90 female, 125 male) studying in the Eastern Anatolia Region of Türkiye. The Personal Information Form, the Innovative Behavior Scale, and the Visions about Future Scale were used as data acquisition tools. The data were analyzed using SPSS, AMOS, and JAMOVI software, and following descriptive statistics and tests of normality, confirmatory factor analysis (CFA), reliability, and validity analyses were conducted. The relationships among the variables were examined using Pearson correlation analysis, and the theoretical model was tested using structural equation modeling (SEM). The findings of the structural equation model indicate that innovative behavior is positively associated with optimism and hope, and negatively associated with pessimism. The results of the structural equation model indicate that innovative behavior was positively associated with optimism and hope and negatively associated with pessimism. In conclusion, it has been found that as the level of innovative behavior increases, students develop a more hopeful and optimistic vision of the future. This finding highlights the importance of developing innovation-oriented competencies in sports management education.
