Özet

This study aims to explore any possible relationships between rhythm sense levels and hand preference, eye dominance, hearing durations, and sports ages of elite amateur boxers who continue their active sports lives. 80 healthy male elite amateur boxers between the ages of 17 and 35 participated in the study. Their rhythm sense levels, hand preferences, eye dominance, and hearing durations were determined. Data were analyzed through the chi-square test for discovering potential connections among the variables. Findings indicate a statistically significant relationship between left-handed and right-handed boxers in terms of rhythm sense levels (χ2 = 14.435, p = 0.002), between rhythm sense levels and sports ages (χ2 = 9.317, p = 0.025) and rhythm sense levels and hearing durations (χ2 = 12.971, p = 0.044). However, no significant relationship was detected between rhythm sense levels and eye dominance (χ2 = 943, p = 0.815). Elite amateur boxers with different hand preferences may differ in their rhythm sense levels and lengthened regular boxing training can improve the level of rhythm sense.

Abstract

This study aims to explore any possible relationships between rhythm sense levels and hand preference, eye dominance, hearing durations, and sports ages of elite amateur boxers who continue their active sports lives. 80 healthy male elite amateur boxers between the ages of 17 and 35 participated in the study. Their rhythm sense levels, hand preferences, eye dominance, and hearing durations were determined. Data were analyzed through the chi-square test for discovering potential connections among the variables. Findings indicate a statistically significant relationship between left-handed and right-handed boxers in terms of rhythm sense levels (χ2 = 14.435, p = 0.002), between rhythm sense levels and sports ages (χ2 = 9.317, p = 0.025) and rhythm sense levels and hearing durations (χ2 = 12.971, p = 0.044). However, no significant relationship was detected between rhythm sense levels and eye dominance (χ2 = 943, p = 0.815). Elite amateur boxers with different hand preferences may differ in their rhythm sense levels and lengthened regular boxing training can improve the level of rhythm sense.
